==Description==

~~The~~ most ~~fanatic soldiers~~ in the ~~war~~ to ~~free~~ the [[~~Black Lum~~|~~Dark Lum~~]] [[André|~~Lord~~]] ~~are~~ the Hoodmongers, ~~known for the mighty boomsticks~~ they ~~tout with tyrannical authority~~. ~~These grifty troops~~ are the ~~grunts of~~ the ~~Hoodlum Army~~ and ~~feature some~~ of the ~~most scattershot shooting skills ever seen~~. ~~The first Hoodmonger~~ to ~~come into existence was~~ [[~~André~~]], ~~the~~ Hoodlum ~~leader~~, ~~although he was soon returned to his~~ [[~~Black Lum~~]] ~~form when defeated by~~ Rayman. ~~While off~~-~~duty, Hoodmongers live~~ for the ~~cutthroat competition of~~ [[~~toad|frog~~]]-~~shooting tournaments and playing cards~~.

Hoodmongers are the most common enemies and Hoodlums in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]''. They wear brown sack-clothes and hats, and their eyes are red or white. They use two types of rifles, known as Boomsticks, to attack [[Rayman]], and they can sometimes be tricked into shooting one another. In certain areas Hoodmongers can hide behind rotatable wooden shields to protect themselves. Due to a hole in the shield for their guns, they are still able to attack. Despite the protection, [[Rayman]] can defeat them with curved shots. Behind shields, Hoodmongers have a lower resistance, and give fewer points when defeated.

==In ''Rayman 3''==

In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', Hoodmongers appear in all the worlds, with the exception of [[the Longest Shortcut]]. Their final in-game appearance is in the final battle with the [[Leptys]]/[[Reflux]], during which [[André]] spawns an army of them with the [[Sceptre of the Leptys]].

A Hoodmonger also appears in the ''[[Wanna Kick Rayman]]'' vignettes, which are presented as fictional instruction videos in which a Hoodmonger teaches the viewer how to kill [[Rayman]].

==In ''Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge''==

''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'' also features Hoodmongers, in which they fire triple pellet shots instead of their regular gun shots. Even though the projectiles are different, their attack is similar to that of the [[Hoodmonger Officer]]s from [[Rayman 3|the previous game]].

==In ''Rayman Kart''==

A Hoodmonger makes its first and currently only playable appearance in ''[[Rayman Kart]]'' as one of the playable racers. Its special power is to release an evil [[Lum]] which steals bonuses from the other racers.

==In ''Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party''==

While no [[Hoodlum]]s physically appear in ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party]]'', a [[scarecrow]] resembling a Hoodmonger appears in the game's intro sequence.
