This magical horn appears as a normal trumpet, but it
will reveal a dweomer if a detection for magic is CAST upon it.

It can be sounded as a normal horn, but if the correct word is spoken and the instrument
then winded in the proper manner, it has the following effects:

    1. A cone of sound, 12” long and 3” wide at the base, issues forth from
        the horn and all within it must save versus magic. Those saving are
        stunned for 1 round and deafened for 2. Those failing the saving
        throw sustain 1-10 HP of damage, are stunned for 2 rounds
        and deafened for 4.

    2. A wave of ultrasonic sound issues from the horn at the same time, a
        1’wide, 10 ” long pulse, which causesa weakening of such materials
        as metal, stone, and wood, the weakening equal in effect to 3 times
        the damage caused by a hit from a missile hurled by a large
        catapult, i.e. 18 structural points, or sufficient to smash a drawbridge
        or flatten a normal cottage.

If a horn of blasting is winded magically more than once per day there is a
10% cumulative chance that it will explode itself and inflict 5-50 HP
of damage upon the person sounding it.

There are no charges upon a horn, but the device is subject to stresses as
noted above, and each time it is used to magical effect there is a 2%
cumulative chance of the instrument shivering itself. In the latter case, no
damage is inflicted on the character blowing it.
