Description:	The Soulbruiser of Hell is a custom monster that uses Vader's Bruiser Demon sprites and core concept (i.e. a strong mid-boss Baron-like creature that hurls fireballs). It's made with a DEHACKED patch (well, a BEX patch to be more pedantic) and replaces the Commander Keen thing.

Base:	Vader's Bruiser Demon sprites
Build time:	~3 days (including creating the test map)
Editor(s) used:	XWE 1.16, SLADE 3.0, Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5, Adobe Audition CS 5.5, Paint.NET
Bugs:	When the Soulbruiser of Hell dies in the middle of other monsters, the explosion might induce some infighting between same-species monsters (just like what could happen with barrels). Let's call it a feature.

Description             : The Soulbruiser of Hell is a custom monster that uses Vader's 
                          Bruiser Demon sprites and core concept (i.e. a strong mid-boss 
                          Baron-like creature that hurls fireballs).

It's made with a DEHACKED patch (well, a BEX patch to be more pedantic) 
                          and replaces the Commander Keen thing.

Test map                : Also included is a test map (wh_soh_TestMap.wad). It's a small hellish 
                          fortress with four different battle scenarios involving the 
                          Soulbruiser of Hell.
                          Warning, these fights are very dangerous and are a good show-off for the
                          new monster's abilities, I think.

How to use              : If you want to use the Soulbruiser of Hell, just extract all of 
                          wh_soh_v2.wad's resources, put them in your own wad, and place a 
                          Commander Keen in your map.

Please note that the Soulbruiser of Hell uses a lot of frames from the Wolf3D 
                          SS nazi (and from the Pain Elemental resurrection sequence), so the nazi 
                          is now replaced by a blood pool.

Gameplay notes          : The Soulbruiser of Hell has 1500 health points, i.e. 50% more than the 
                          Baron of Hell. It's also much more dangerous due to its retentless barrage 
                          of fireballs and flaming comets.

Its purpose is to be a demonic mid-boss that puts quite a lot of pressure on 
                          the player.

When paired together against a Cyberdemon, two of these creatures stand a 
                          good chance of winning.

There's also a twist : when the Soulbruiser of Hell dies, its whole body 
                          ignites before turning to ashes and bones, and the resulting fire surge can 
                          still kill the victorious player. Don't say you haven't been warned !
