The Lost Soul is a low-tiered monster; it's just a dumb skull on fire that rams you in your face. Giving it "intelligent" traits or abilities just doesn't work for me. A hide-to-dodge attack is too much for a lost soul, I find.

The sprite coloring is okay I guess, but I think some other modification to the base monster sprites would help make it stand out a bit more.
