SPECIAL FEATURES

• Benathy-Sized Construction
  • Built specifically around Korar's massive frame and four-fingered hands.
  • Too large and heavy for most species to properly operate.
• Rotary Barrel System
  • Multiple rotating barrels allow the weapon to maintain sustained automatic fire while reducing overheating.
• Heavy-Duty Internal Components
  • Designed to survive prolonged combat use and the physical strain caused by Korar's strength.
• Oversized Ammunition Feed
  • Uses large-caliber slugthrower rounds designed for maximum stopping power.
• Reinforced Frame
  • Strong enough to be used as a blunt weapon during close combat.
• Portable Heavy Weapon
  • Although most would consider the War Horn a mounted weapon, Korar is capable of carrying and using it without a support platform.

STRENGTHS

• Overwhelming Firepower
  • The War Horn can unleash an incredible amount of kinetic firepower, making it extremely effective against groups, defensive positions, and heavily armored targets.
• Area Control
  • Sustained fire allows Korar to control large areas and prevent enemies from advancing.
• Heavy Target Capability
  • Effective against large creatures, vehicles, fortified positions, and heavily protected enemies.
• Built For Korar
  • The weapon's extreme size and weight are manageable because of Korar's Benathy strength.
• Intimidation
  • The weapon's appearance and sound alone make it a terrifying sight on the battlefield.

---

WEAKNESSES

• Extreme Ammunition Consumption
  • The War Horn burns through ammunition extremely quickly, requiring Korar to carry large supplies or resupply frequently.
• Massive Weight
  • While Korar can handle it, the weapon is nearly impossible for other species to use effectively.
• Slow Deployment
  • The weapon requires time to prepare and cannot be quickly drawn like a normal firearm.
• Limited Practical Use
  • The War Horn is designed for open combat and performs poorly in tight environments, stealth situations, or areas requiring precision.
• Heat Build-Up
  • Continuous firing eventually overheats the rotary system despite its cooling mechanisms.

DESCRIPTION

The War Horn is a massive rotary slugthrower commissioned by Ontogr for Korar Murrak. Unlike most heavy weapons, which are designed to be mounted onto vehicles or operated by multiple soldiers, the War Horn was created with one specific user in mind: a Benathy warrior.
To most species, the weapon would appear to be a mounted battlefield gun that has somehow been made portable. The weapon's oversized frame, rotating barrels, and massive ammunition feed make it far larger than any standard firearm. To Korar, however, it is simply another weapon.
The War Horn is not something Korar carries during every mission. It is a weapon reserved for situations where overwhelming force is needed, such as large battles, defensive positions, boarding actions, or fighting powerful creatures. While most would use a weapon like this from a stationary position, Korar uses it aggressively, advancing while firing and relying on his armor and strength to push through enemy resistance.
The weapon perfectly reflects Korar's fighting style. It is not subtle, it is not designed for precision, and it is not meant for small engagements. The War Horn exists to overwhelm anything standing in front of it.
Alongside the Iron Claw and Black Tusk, the War Horn represents another part of the legacy Ontogr left behind for Korar. He did not simply give Korar weapons — he gave him the tools to become the warrior he believed Korar could be.
