Description New creature I designed for Hexen, the Will-o-wisp.  As the cape suggests, these guys were once clerics before Korax transformed them into ghostly servants.  The way they would function is akin to a floating stalker.  It remains completely invisible - except for the flame inside the lantern it carries around.  It will generally float around faster while only the flame is visible until it is close enough to a player; it reveals the rest of it's form and blows a deadly fireblast from it's lantern before fading out again.  Projectiles will pass straight through it while it is invisible.

I already started working on a sprite (which I may upload soon).  Well, is it Hexenish enough?

The first thing that comes to mind is that it is very similar to the Wraiths/Reavers. A ghostly monster that fires flame-based projectiles...perhaps when you get to coloring and spriting, make the fire blue to set it apart from the Wraith?

That could be a possibility, or make multiple colored flames for a will-o-wisp leader.
