Hellhounds

Hellhounds, also known simply as Hounds, are a species of Demons native to Hell that resemble canines such as dogs and wolves. They share the lowest ranking in Hell's hierarchy alongside Imps.

Description
Hellhounds are in the lowest-ranking tier of Hell's hierarchy system, along with Imps. Because of this, the majority have a servitude role and used primarily for labor or work to the point that their service is advertised by businesses.

Notable Hellhounds

 * Loona
 * Vortex
 * Stolas' bodyguards
 * Hellhound Adoption Center Lady

Appearance
Hellhounds are anthropomorphic demons that resemble canines or canine-like carnivorans, taking after one specific breed or species for their appearance, with some looking like wolves, and others like more traditional domesticated dog breeds, such as Doberman and huskies. Hellhounds thus far all share red sclera with white irises, as well as distinguishable ears, tails, and muzzles specific to their breed-inspired type.

Mortality
Similarly to Imps, Hellhounds can be killed by non-angelic weaponry, like gunshots to the head, as seen when Blitzo shot a Hellhound off of Fizzarolli in "MAMMON'S MAGNIFICENT MUSICAL MID-SEASON SPECIAL (ft Fizzarolli)".

Abilities

 * Human Disguise: Some Hellhounds have been shown to be able to don a human appearance on Earth. These disguises typically retain some traits of their true demon forms, in the case of Vortex's his scarred eye is prominently featured.
 * Enhanced senses: Hellhounds appear to have an extrasensory type of smell for tracking a target by sniffing an item that identifies them. Loona, for instance, smelled a hit list of the humans for the I.M.P and could detect where they were by their scent. However, their sense of smell can be hindered by air pollutants, such as the case with Loona being unable to sniff out Octavia in Los Angeles due to the polluted air.

Trivia

 * The hellhound is a folkloric creature tracing back to Greek mythology; described as a species of supernatural canid of the underworld, the hellhound traditionally features black fur, red eyes, and ghoulish characteristics. They are often assigned to tasks involving the afterlife, such as guarding the entrances to the world of the dead or hunting lost souls. Cerberus, the three-headed guard dog of the god of the underworld, Hades, was considered a hellhound. In post-classical European cultures, they were considered an omen of death.
 * Hellhounds are one of the few species of demon shown to have visible ears, with the only other exception being certain damned former humans, such as Mrs. Mayberry, and a few succubi, featuring pointed ears.
 * Since the start of season two, Hellhounds have been revealed to come in many different variants in terms of appearance, not just appearing as wolves, but also appearing similar to regular breeds of dogs. Though this would have also been revealed in Queen Bee, had the episode not been delayed and were released in chronological order.
 * Hellhounds need to be vaccinated against Hellbies, a parody of Rabies, every year.
 * But, because of how Hellhounds simultaneously rank the lowest in Hell's hierarchy alongside imps, Blitzo only had the chance to make an appointment for Loona's five years later.
 * When Loona calls Vikki a "bitch" in "Queen Bee", everyone reacts in shock and someone said "You can't say that", which may imply it is some type of racial slur.
 * Coincidentally, the word "bitch" also refers to a female dog in the English dictionary.
 * It is also revealed that most hellhounds say "oh my dog" instead of "oh my god".
