Arch-Vile

The 'Arch-Vile' is a monster from the popular game series 'Doom' that was first introduced in Doom II. In Doom 3 it features as a large, off-white coloured humanoid demon, and it is capable of summoning many of the non-boss demons (though imps & zombie commandos are more common). It can also slash its victims at close range, as well as raise a wall of fire that can seriously hurt your character, cauising up to 20 points of damage.

As with its previous Doom incarnations, the Arch-Vile can be easily underestimated. Though possessing less then half the hit points of the Hell Knight, the Arch-Vile's varied attacks & ability to summon other demons make this one of the tougher enemies to defeat. Often thought of by the Doom community as "very much deserving of a Soul-cubing or a quick blast from the BFG"
