PinkyD3G2

The Pinkies in Doom 3 are also referred to as 'hellhounds'.

Doom Eternal[]

The Marauder will occasionally summon an orange spectral Hellhound, which chases you and delivers biting damage. While more of a nuisance than a threat, damage from the Hellhound can add up quickly and distract you from the fight at hand.

Behind the scenes[]

Doom 64 Hellhound

A sculpture of the Hellhound by Gregor Punchatz.

The Hellhound is a monster intended to appear in Doom 64, and sadly, it didn't make it to the final cut. Its existing sculpture is that of a demonic canine with two heads, resembling the Greek mythogical Orthrus.
