Lore

Origins

Once a mortal man from an ancient civilization on an alternate Earth, he made a deal with an angelic entity that bound his soul to a life of endless slaughter. After losing his pet rabbit, his rage became his weapon, a force that Hell could not contain. He is too angry to die.

The Night Sentinels

He fought alongside the Night Sentinels, elite warriors of the realm of Argent D'Nur. His extraordinary combat ability earned him a place among their ranks, and eventually his legend grew to surpass even their greatest champions.

Imprisonment

The Slayer was cast into a sarcophagus by angelic entities and sealed on Mars for millennia. It was the UAC who eventually discovered and awakened him.

Doom Eternal

In Doom Eternal, The Slayer is sent down from the Fortress of Doom, a castle on a small moon orbiting Earth. His mission: Stop the Khan Maykr from harvesting the suffering of the human race. Casualties range in the billions. Mercilessly tearing through hordes of Hell, he rips and tears, until it is done.

The Praetor Suit

The Praetor Suit is The Slayer's combat exoskeleton that has been thrown through eons of tearing through Hell. It is nearly indestructible and constantly upgraded throughout the campaign.

  • Shoulder-mounted flame belch and ice grenade
  • Retractable wrist-mounted blade
  • Heads-up display (HUD)
  • Energy shield
  • some sort of weapon container maybe? where does he keep all these guns??

Arsenal Highlights

The Slayer carries a diverse arsenal of badass weapons. Fun fact: he just thinks they're cool, he doesn't really need to use anything but his fists.

Super Shotgun

BFG 9000

Cover your ears, The Big Fucking Gun 9000 fires a massive orb of energy that obliterates everything in its path.

Ballista

Point and click beam weapon. Can be quick switch with the Super Shotgun for the "cheese" combo.

Crucible Blade

A blade made from pure Argent Energy. Made from the suffering of millions, now wielded by humanity's greatest warrior. Use to instantly kill anything.
