Depending on the version of the character, his real name or aliases include William Joseph "B.J" Blazkowicz and Flynn Taggart. Not human, 2. An etching in the book Daeva (another discovery of the Kadingir expedition), depicts the DOOM Marine wearing the Praetor suit, engaging demons in battle Codex entry "Slayer's Testament III" (UAC REPORT FILE HR93TE1F )And in his conquest against the blackened souls of the doomed, his prowess was shown. In his crusade, I bolded the relevant segments. That's conjecture by whoever wrote the wiki's Doom Slayer's page.Codex entry "Doom Slayer" (UAC REPORT FILE 7VPMJ2IQ)UAC archivists cataloged the discovery DM1-5, but project personnel had soon dubbed him the "DOOM Marine". So actually the Doom Slayer (at least the incarnation of the character that's in 2016's Doom) isn't a human at all. In outside materials?I think I liked the original Doomguy better, a descendant of B.J.
Hell force even claims that the Seraphim is responsible for giving the Doom Marine strength and speed to fight the demon for eons. He can run at, is it 60 mph ?.The only thing that can be attributed to the suit, is probably the double jump.Raw anger and hatred. They're screaming in utter terror.So I know that the backstory you pick up and piece together throughout Hell talks about the Doomslayer and his knights and his demon-forged armor and what have you, and my understanding is that this is the basis for the theory that he’s not humanHowever—and it’s been a little over a year since I played it, so my memory is a little fuzzy here—I swear to god I remember a segment that specifically mentions that he founded the knights So is there anything out there that clearly breaks down the timeline, because as far as I’m able to tell, the idea is that the 2016 So actually the Doom Slayer (at least the incarnation of the character that's in 2016's Doom) isn't a human at all.Now, I'll admit that I'm a little fuzzy on some of these details (the wiki doesn't really make things that clear).At some point, the Doom Slayer was tasked by another guy called the Betrayer to basically wipe out all of demon kind. Last I heard 2016 Doomslayer was Doom Guy who had been trapped in hell-prison since the original Doom series.e: I'm not arguing or anything I'm just curious as to where all this info was hidden away. These are the only Codex entries that mention a "hooded figure" and a "Seraphim". Until the demons invaded he probably had no idea what he was doing with his life, until a sudden realization that he's e: Don't believe the Heavenly propaganda attempting to take credit for humanity's successes in applied physics and demon killin'.That comic should held up as a prime example of what was wrong with comics in the early 90s.Doomguy cannot die, nor does his immortality or strenght come frome the suit. Namely, if there are angels of the Seraphim order around that means that the DOOM universe has a heaven, perhaps not a God, but almost certainly a heaven.The DOOM universe having a heaven creates a problem, namely what the fuck are the angels doing during these attempted/almost completely successful invasions by the armies of Doom?He could be effected by hell energy like the rest of the UAC staff were, but In a different way. He breaks metal chains like nothing and crushes a demons skull with his bare hands. Keep in mind the developers wanted players to feel powerful in Doom 2016, so most of the above reasons were likely developed just to explain that.I agree, but I have to add that, because the Doom Slayer is the same as the original Doom Marine, he isn't actually from D'Nur, but he may have been there long enough for his physiology to change anywayThere is one big issue that the mention of the Seraphim brings up. I'm interested in the lore.It's not really explained in too much detail, but I'll make a list based on what we know:Those are what I could come up with. If he dropped into the middle ages he would have a suit of fullplate instead.New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castIt's like Ask Science, but for all universes other than our own.
