Sold Soul is a nine level episode replacement WAD for Heretic and GZDoom created by Fryuko. Work started in 2020 with levels being published one by one, before finally coming out on September 10, 2021. It contains five custom enemies and a weapon along with new decorations through DECORATE. The WAD uses music tracks from the games RuneScape and Old School RuneScape. It was named one of the runners up at the 2021 Cacowards.

Plot[edit]
The story is rather simple, you play as a merchant with some unnatural powers and skills who has been betrayed and is seeking revenge. The conclusion is told after finishing the final level.
Content[edit]
New monsters[edit]
Followers of D'Sparil are weak humanoid cultists who fire fast-moving ice shards from their hands.
Chaos serpents are identical in appearance to the Hexen monster of the same name, but they can breathe a spread of three fireballs, or three bursts of two fireballs each.
Chaos wyverns are flying monsters similar to Hexen's death wyvern. They attack by breathing fire and launching fireballs.
Death knights are visually similar to undead warriors, but carry a shield that they can raise to reflect incoming attacks. They can swing their swords to throw red projectiles (similar to the Quietus), or use the shield to launch streams of projectiles and homing missiles.
The Beast of the Betrayer serves as the final boss. It is an orange Korax-like creature that can throw fireballs, rain down meteors and launch bombs that spray fireballs in all directions.
New weapon[edit]
The Lightbringer is a weapon for slot 7. Using sun runes as ammo, it fires bolts of light that pierce through multiple enemies and ricochet off of walls; each shot requires five ammo. When tomed, the weapon fires a burst of tracers (similar to Doom's BFG9000) that can hit many monsters at once; each burst requires 20 ammo.
New items[edit]
Red apples are functionally similar to Doom's stimpack; each apple restores five health points when picked up, up to a maximum of 100.
The rune platebody gives 100 armor when picked up, and absorbs 75% of incoming damage while it lasts. It is derived from the RuneScape item of the same name.
