| The '''Drinol''' is a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] species that was cut from ''[[Halo 2]]''.

| In the [[Behind the Scenes: Making of Halo 2|Behind the Scenes featurette]] from the [[Limited Collector's Edition Disc (Halo 2)|DVD]] included with the ''Halo 2 Collector's Edition'', Drinol are described as huge beasts that are kept contained and segregated from the other forces. Possessing phenomenal strength, they are often used to smash enemy [[category:Vehicles|vehicles]].

| From a description of the [[w:c:marathongame:Drinniol|Hulk]] in ''Marathon'':
| |
| {{BigQuote|The Hulk is an enormous and rather slow creature, but it is incredibly strong. The science report indicated that it had no body fat, and therefore had to be fed often to keep it active. One crew member reported seeing one of these creatures pointing to it and mumbling "Drinniol" right before it "picked Johnny up by the shirt and crushed him against a pillar".}}

| The term "Drinniol" is very similar to "Drinol," indicating a reference.
