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 attack in a manner very similar to that of Lost Souls, but they do not actually impact with the player. They swoop in and slash with their claws, doing small damage. They have 40 Hit points and are weaker than the SS Nazis in Doom II.

Fire Gargoyles (sometimes called Gargoyle Leaders) throw small fireballs at a distance to pester the player. In groups they can gang up on the player with fireballs. Fire Gargoyles also have 80 Hit Points, a little more than a Chaingunner in Doom II and the same as the regular Golem.

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

They appear on almost every level of Heretic; fire gargoyles first appear on The Gatehouse, while regular gargoyles first appear on The Docks.
