From Doom Wiki

Gargoyles in Heretic E1M1

Gargoyles and Fire Gargoyles are minor-level enemies from Heretic. Both varieties of Gargoyle are small, red, and have wings, allowing them to float and fly around the map.

Normal Gargoyles at close range slash at the player with their claws and can dive at the player from range to quickly close the distance. They have 40 Hit points.

Fire Gargoyles (sometimes called Gargoyle Leaders) instead of both the above attacks, throw small fireballs at the player. In groups they can gang up on the player with fireballs. Fire Gargoyles also have 80 Hit Points, the same as the regular Golem.

Some source ports refer to the Gargoyle as "Imp" or "Harpy".

Gargoyles appear on almost every level of Heretic; Fire Gargoyles first appear on The Gatehouse, while regular Gargoyles first appear on The Docks.
