| ==Description==
| |
| Hoodmongers are the most common enemies and Hoodlums in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' and ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]''. They use two types of shotguns to attack [[Rayman]], and they can sometimes be tricked into shooting one another. They wear brown sack-clothes and hats, and their eyes are red or white. They 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]].
| |
| | |
| ''[[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]].
