Angel of Matyrdom (AoHu + AoP)

You are human (AoHu).  You want ascendency amongst the gods and thus want to be pure (AoP).  Globes and all the other what not are impure -- you will purge the hellspawn through conviction alone.

When you eventually succeed, you will be remembered forever as the Matyr that took on hell itself.

Angel of RNG
You're probably suffering from a severe Alzheimer. What else can explain all these things in your backpack you've never put there?!

Every time you descend to a new level, RNG kindly provides you with a brand new inventory. Only your equipped stuff remains the same.

Barrels of water!

Not a very damaging fluid, but these are under pressure. They deal greatly reduced damage/extra knockback like rocket jumps, and have a chance to leave water like acid barrels do. They can also knockback barrels.

Angel of Long Travel

It's about the journey, not the destination.

A prequel mini-game about DoomGuy's flight to Phobos. Takes two weeks of real time.

[Silhar]

Shesh, now THAT's one "so-bad-that-I-want-to-see-it-making-in" idea.

BTW. Hi, Pass, good to see you around.

Angel of Age
Right now, you're in the peak of health! Unfortunately, fighting your way through hell is making you feel tired, weary and old.

You begin by selecting 15 perks. Every two floors, you lose one (while still respecting prerequisites). Every three floors, you either lose an inventory slot, dropping whatever you were holding in that slot onto the ground.

This has been posted many times in the real challenge idea thread.

Shesh, now THAT's one "so-bad-that-I-want-to-see-it-making-in" idea.

Completing that challenge unlocks:

Angel of False Alert

The trip to Phobos was dull -- but not as dull as the following tour of duty. Twelve months of pure mind-numbing tedium. You hate the UAC: nothing ever happens there, and this time is no exception.

Good grief!  I'm assuming you are meaning 12 months of real-time?

[ParaSait]

And Doomguy needs to eat at least every 8 hours, otherwise he dies and you have to start it ALL over again.

There is a large med-pack lying here. Suddenly a master mimic attacks you! The master mimic hits you. You can't move! The master mimic hits you. The master mimic hits you. Your red armor is damaged! The master mimic hits you. The master mimic hits you. You die...

And completing it with 100% kills gives you Postal Bloodied Cross!

[General Patton]

And making that comment gives you the Bloody Hilarious Cross.

Angel of DOOOOOOOOOM

You're DOOMED! DOOMED I say! You're condemned to pass through Hell without the benefits of caution! On the plus side, you're always running. On the other hand, no zerk, no invulnerability, no envirosuits...

[Thexare]

Alternate Angel of Doom:

Only one trait - Badass. AoMC and AoI rules. Only Pistol, Shotgun, Double Shotgun, Super Shotgun, Chaingun, Plasma Rifle, Rocket Launcher, and BFG9000 can spawn.
