A horned devil:

| Reference | monst.c#line2545 |
The horned devil, &, is a major demon that appears in NetHack. It is considered the weakest of the major demons, with a lower monster difficulty than even the barbed devil. It is also ranked as weaker than the water demon, despite having slightly stronger attacks and a comparably decent AC; this is likely because the water demon can potentially appear much earlier, and can swim as well.
Generation
Since horned devils are flagged as only appearing in Gehennom, and no lawful creatures can be randomly generated there, they (along with barbed devils and erinys) are effectively never randomly generated. They most often appear in graveyards and devil lairs, and are also eligible for gating by other major demons.
They are generated with either a trident (75% chance) or a bullwhip (25% chance).
Encyclopedia Entry
Horned devils lack any real special abilities, though they
are quite difficult to kill.
