The Shinehorn is a small fantasy-typed creature native to the Aberration DLC, internally tagged as Lantern Goat. It functions as a light pet, making it relevant to admins managing Aberration maps where bioluminescent utility creatures interact with the HLNA and charge-based mechanics of that map.
When spawning or managing this creature via console commands, use the entity ID LanternGoat_Character_BP_C. The name tag Lantern Goat is what the game uses internally and may appear in log output or wild-card command matching, so it's worth knowing alongside the full class name.
Because the Shinehorn is Aberration-exclusive, it will not spawn naturally on other maps. If you want it present on a non-Aberration server, you'll need to force-spawn it manually or configure your mod or custom spawn entries to include it.
