Baron of Hell
"Tough as a dump truck and nearly as big, these Goliaths are the worst things on two legs since Tyrannosaurus Rex."
―Doom instruction manual

The Barons of Hell is a Minotaur-like species found within the Doom series. There is only a small number of them in existence. The Baron of Hell is a powerful species that looks like a cross between a Minotaur and a Fawn. The appearance of the Baron of Hell consists of a redish pink complexion, long hairy goat-like legs, a muscular upper body, a bony face, and two black outward curving horns located near it's forehead.

Combat Characteristics

The only two Barons found in DOOM.

The Barons of Hell are some of the most resiliant species in Hell. They throw a green ball of plasma-like energy that can cause significant damage and they also pose a severe threat during melee combat due to their powerful claw attack (Melee combat is strongly discouraged when dealing with this creature). Barons of Hell are easiest taken down with big weapons such as a rocket launcher or plasma rifle. Although, despite their endurance, the Baron of Hell has a some-what slow ranged attack and their projectiles, when given enough space, are easy to dodge, making combat easier.
