Hexen: Beyond Heretic

Hexen: Beyond Heretic

While you were fighting the evil forces of D'Sparil, the other Serpent Riders were busy sowing the seeds of destruction in other dimensions. One of these dimensions is the decaying world in which Witches is set. A world littered with the mutilated corpses of infidels and inhabited by the undead followers who executed them. Only three people, a warrior, a mage, and a cleric, have escaped the vicious spell of the leaders. Now these brave souls have vowed to destroy the evil regime that threatens to destroy the world forever. Separated when they entered the mystical portal, the three are forced to attempt alone what they set out to accomplish together: Find Korax's fortress, destroy him and restore order in the physical world. Become one of 3 heroes. Possess superhuman strength and deadly weapons. Walk. Run. Fly. Look around. Inflict serious pain. Plunder your way through earthquakes, crumbling bridges, and fog. Track down powerful artifacts and cast evil spells. Four sick individuals can do damage over the network, two by modem.
