The horned devil, &, is the weakest of the major demons (slightly lower in difficulty than even the water demon). It is generated with either a trident (75% chance) or a bullwhip.

If you are polymorphed into one, tame horned devils will occasionally appear by your side during combat with the message "Some hell-p has arrived!". This is known as demon gating.
