Bruiser


 *  Bruiser is also a name used for the Baron of Hell. 

Bruiser is a monster found in Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil.

The aptly named Bruiser has a large muscular body in the vein of a Hell Knight and identical mechanical features of a Mancubus, although both creatures' robotic parts look different. It is also slightly taller than the Hell Knight. Its feet feature robotic hooves, both arms are giant fire ball launchers and the head is a sight to behold. It has two demon horns on the far back of its head, facing outward and the front has two yellow eyes with no pupils. Above the eyes are two yellow rings. The mouth is actually a large TV-screen that connects to the head with a fleshy-tube. On the screen is a close up of a (presumed) angry human mouth, showing only gums and teeth. The TV-screen also displays an eyeball upon sighting an enemy. The mouth sometimes opens and closes as the beast moves. Its back has what appears to be a visible, robotic spine.

Seen early in Doom 3's development, the Bruiser's unique TV-Like mouth was intended to be another way of surprising the player. The player would walk up to what appeared to be a typical computer terminal, and the terminal would change and the Bruiser would reveal its entire self. This, however, does not happen in any point in the game.

The Bruiser attacks by rapidly firing its cannons which will quickly kill almost any opponent. Its endurance is even higher than that of the Hell Knight or the Mancubus. The best ways to kill it are to either shoot the TV screen with the strongest weapons available, or to use the berserk power from the Artifact and attack with the fists. Two double-barreled shotgun blasts or one punch will kill it whilst in berserk mode.

It has a television screen in place of its mouth, with the image of a mouth projected on it, resembling Cain in the film RoboCop 2.
