Attack dogs (vampire hunters)

Vampire Hunter Attack Dogs also known simply as Attack Dogs, were canine enemies featured in Soul Reaver 2. They were affiliated with Moebius's Vampire hunters and were encountered in the Pre-Blood Omen era.

Role
Vampire hunter attack dogs were Vampire hunter affiliated canine enemies with brown and black fur. They wore a axe shaped headgear and a spiked collar, with which they could attack, primarily by charging (and possibly biting) at Raziel. The attack dogs were fairly minor enemies, with little health and weak attacks, though they were incredibly fast and were able to sense Raziel's presence (possibly by scent) at longer distances than other enemies.

On their own, attack dogs were little threat to Raziel and their tendency to run towards Raziel as soon as they detected him often put them in this position, However, the dogs were likely to be accompanied by other Vampire hunter enemies and their charge could alert other troops to investigate; when teamed with other Vampire hunters in group battles, the dogs and their speed could become a major nuisance.

Raziel encountered Vampire hunter attack dogs in the Pre-Blood Omen era at the outset of Soul Reaver 2, first meeting them along with other Vampire hunter enemies at the Shrine nearby the Pillars, he would encounter them again in the Swamp. The Dogs were bred and trained by the Moebius's hunters to assist in their crusades against the Vampires.
