I would worry a bit about damaging the horn with that!

There are examples of conjoined badges in period and in the SCA.
The SCA example I'm remembering was based on a period English example:
it had something like "a fish head, issuant from its mouth
a cubit arm sustaining something or another".  If it's period and
it's distinctive, I'm usually all for it.  Unfortunately for
this, a fish head can naturally and easily point upward.
Also unfortunately, some people might think a bent arm
(for ex.) issuing from a horn and holding an arrow looks weird.
