Description:	Take on the hellish creatures of doom on their own turf! First, you will face flying skulls on a precarious path in their dark and fiery home (with teleporters should you accidently slip "ooops"). Then it's off to the playground of the cacos a place of great heights and quite a bit of slime. Should you be lucky enough to survive that, you will be plunged into the blood maze of the demons. A rather disgusting place where even the walls bleed and most likely so will your knuckles. You will find very little ammo here, bezerk is your only friend, and the return trip is even worse. Finally, you will be roasted in the cave of the barons and that's still not the end. To reach the exit you will return to the arena, which should be filled with corpses already, and cower in front of the final and the largest (quite possibly) horde of hell spawn ever assembled. This level is WANTON.

Hi all, this is an improved version of the original, and quite
acclaimed pwad, WANTON. I've taken all the suggestions from the
original post (wanton was actually one of the first full levels
created for doom) and tried to implement them to make a better pwad. 
This version, WANTON2.WAD is for registered DOOM II.

Enjoy!

Short Description       : Wanton is a large level split into four
        		  trianglular sections and a large middle 
			  arena. This level is a slugfest! I have 
			  gone to great extents to make it a good
			  deathmatch level as well as a good single
			  player level.
