A cornuthaum is a type of helm. It provides MC2, and gives special benefits for Wizards. Specifically, Wizards wearing a cornuthaum gain 1 point of charisma and the clairvoyance intrinsic, while non-Wizards lose 1 point of charisma and have all instances of clairvoyance blocked (whether by intrinsic or by spell).

Cornuthaums are one of the best helmets for a wizard to use, since they can be safely enchanted up to +7, and the clairvoyance intrinsic is quite useful and difficult to gain via any other method.
