The '''lost soul''' is a flaming, floating skull with horns, first introduced in Doom's second episode, [[The Shores of Hell]]. Lost souls use themselves as weapons, charging towards the player with open jaws. Given its tendency to charge suddenly, its quickness to retaliate upon being attacked, and its ability to crowd the player, a lost soul can be a considerable annoyance. Doom II makes additional use of the lost soul by utilizing it as the projectile attack of the new [[pain elemental]] monster. They are officially described in the manual with the simple quip, "Dumb. Tough. Flies. On fire. 'Nuff said."

'''Doomworld''' is the oldest unofficial news website dedicated to the Doom games. The site was founded on March 13, 1998 by [[Andrew Stine (Linguica)]], [[Gaston Lahaut (Mordeth)]], and [[Javier Heredia (Dukrous)]]. In addition to Doom related news, Doomworld also hosts the weekly [[The /newstuff Chronicles|/newstuff Chronicles]] reviews of new WADs uploaded to the [[idgames archive]] and a web-based database of the archive. The site also provides informational resources about Doom and associated games, hosting of Doom websites, and a forum.
