Bullhorn is Elwin's pet banshee, kept in the Healing Center at Foxfire.
Description[]
He is described as looking like a demented ferret with beady purple and grey eyes.
Abilities[]
A banshee can sense when someone's life is in danger and will scream when one is near death. It has been said that if a banshee lies next to someone, their condition is far more severe, and the person may be even closer to dying. Bullhorn has laid near or on Sophie three times; when she was near death after having an allergic reaction to limbium, after almost fading away, and after Umber attacked her with shadowflux. One of these times, Bullhorn lies down next to Sophie for a whole week before she regains consciousness.
It can be noted that Bullhorn can supposedly take on Keefe if he tried to escape (as mentioned in Keefe's Short Story).
Trivia[]
- Bullhorn is, presumably accidentally, called 'Bullseye' on page 337 (hardcover) of Nightfall.
