Horton

  • First seen · Book 5 · Ch. 70

Horton strums his off-kilter guitar with earnest fumbling, his mushroom cap bobbing like a forgotten forest sprite. There's a goofy charm in his poorly-tuned notes that cuts through the dungeon's din. You can't help but grin at this fungal fellow's unpolished vibe.

Dubbed the 'mushroom guy,' Horton pops up in Chapters 70 and 71 as background entertainment—a stocky humanoid with a cap head, mangling 'Wonderwall' on a one-string-missing acoustic guitar during stage acts. His minor role provides comic relief in the crawl's variety shows, unchanged and unconnected, tuning up as the second-to-last performer before vanishing into the spectacle.

Description

Horton's stocky frame is that of a mushroom humanoid, topped by a broad cap head in mottled browns and creamy whites, dotted with subtle spore-like bumps. Thin fungal arms clutch an acoustic guitar missing one string, its wood scratched from use. His face peeks from under the cap with small black eyes and a lipless mouth, clad in loose performer rags, radiating an awkward, earthy presence.
