Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... the Doom Slayer. 1.2 INTRODUCTION Welcome hell walkers of the mortal realms to an almost never before seen experience, a fan made Doom RPG. These parchments contain inside of them what is needed for a game master to run a bone chilling and action-packed tabletop experience pitting players against the strongest beings from the Doom games, inspired by the new lore from Doom Eternal. This RPG is mostly to aim to recreate the “puzzle combat” loop that the team over at id Software created for Doom Eternal while giving a new twist to the franchise. The question most reading this would have is why create a Doom RPG? Doom has never dipped into the tabletop gaming world outside of the board game made by Bethesda, and the concept itself doesn’t lend itself well to a narrative based genre like RPGs. However, the new concepts in Doom Eternal from factions to worlds has given inspiration to this project. Doom is no longer just about one man’s struggle against the forces of hell. As Hugo Martin said, they are creating a Doom universe. I just hope this project itself will help that vision be fully realized. As a fan of Doom and video games in general, I have always tried to apply the mindset that made the series what it is today in all of my creative endeavours, hence why this will be a more heavily combat focused RPG. This is for all those people that want unique combat scenarios like those in the entire series but in a tabletop format to share with their friends, where narrative matters not next to the mechanics for how they strike down their foes. That isn’t to say that this system can’t have a narrative focused campaign in mind, in fact that’s why Doom Eternal has inspired this. It proves you can have engaging combat while having an intricate story. The versatility of this project can only be rivalled by the expanse of the wad community which is still going strong for the original game twenty-five years later. This project aims to provide simple mechanics for newcomer players and Game Masters to get into tabletop RPGs while also providing mechanical depth to veteran players to continually enjoy new scenarios and new worlds to explore. Investment wise there is nothing to it. Using pieces from other RPGs is acceptable and highly encouraged to ignite creativity in players and Game Masters alike. Using a dice system ranging from D4’s to D100’s, unique encounters and games is the penultimate goal of this entire project, all easily available at your local games store. I hope you enjoy exploring your way through this rule book and remember RIP AND TEAR, UNTIL IT IS DONE CHAPTER 2: CHARACTER CREATION 2.1 DOOM SLAYER’S TESTAMENT 2 Tempered by the fires of Hell, his iron will remained steadfast through the passage that preys upon the weak. For alone he was the Hell Walker, the Unchained Predator, who sought retribution in all quarters, dark and light, fire and ice, in the beginning and the end, and he hunted the slaves of Doom with barbarous cruelty; for he passed through the divide as none but DEMON had before. 2.2 BASIC STATS Doom Eternal RPG like many RPG systems use stat based rolls to determine outcomes from things like combat to moment to moment actions like if one is able to hop over a small ledge. To the GM’s discretion, all type of actions can be determined by pure rolls, but it can be limited to just combat. In the end, everything will be focused around combat while other actions are a by-product of your main stats. This section will be dedicated to purely how to roll up stats for your character and what type of play style you wish to do. Here is a list of the major stats: STRENGTH – Determines your base strength, how you are able to lift heavy objects among other things. The combat stats tied to this are Heavy Weapons, Ammo capacity and Glory Kill potential INTELLECT – Determines your intelligence, your perception of the battlefield and quick thinking. The combat stats tied to this are Plasma Weapons, Awareness and Bonus Equipment Points AGILITY – Determines your reflexes and sheer mobility, how quickly you can move and do actions. The combat stats tied to this are Melee Weapons, Movement and Evasion ENDURANCE – Determines your resilience to the harsh world that the legions of doom will offer. The combat stats tied to this are Health, Armour capacity and Glory Kill rewards UNNATURAL

  • Nic Howe FPS CPR: Doom Vs. DOOM the Reboot of the DOOM Franchise
    Nic Howe FPS CPR: Doom vs. DOOM The reboot of the DOOM franchise released in May of 2016 is quite possibly my favorite FPS of all time. For that reason, I find it intriguing to go back to the original game after having played the new one and tracing the roots of the mechanics and design philosophy of the new DOOM and how it innovated on the design of the original. I believe that the new DOOM’s design philosophy was to return the single player FPS experience back to that of the experience of the form in its nascent stages, back when every FPS was attempting to iterate off of its predecessor. At the same time, the new DOOM also iterates and expands upon the frustrating mechanics and technical limitations of its predecessor in order to make it a fully modern and unique experience instead of just rehashing the original. The clearest example of modernization comes in the differences between the level design. Doom inherently had to be oriented on a single plane simply because the technology had not reached the point where full 3D worlds were possible. In fact, the original Doom is a 2D top down shooter masquerading as a 3D game. While verticality is faked in some points (the imp standing high on a ledge in e1m1 comes to mind) Doom is a strictly single planar experience. The new DOOM breaks that bound and becomes an intensely vertical experience. The introduction of the jump jets allows the player to use the air space in ways that were simply impossible in the original Doom—a game in which you cannot jump.

  • The Return of Doom
    100 | Angela Ndalianis ‘HAIL TO THE KING!’ – THE RETURN OF DOOM It was back in 1993 that the horror was unleashed in the form of the doom: evil unleashed. Developed by the Texas-based company id Software, this com- puter game was to introduce radical innovations not only to the First-Person Shooter (fps) genre, but also to the soft and hardware technology that drove gaming. In 1994, the sequel doom 2: hell on earth was to push the envelope further still. Drawing upon the science fiction and horror conventions of cine- matic examples like alien (Ridley Scott, 1979), aliens (James Cameron, 1986) and evil dead ii (Sam Raimi, 1987), both doom games upped the ante in game culture by transferring experiences familiar to the horror and science fiction film spectator over to the gamer. Discussing doom’s influences, Jay Wilbur, the then chief executive officer of id stated that id ‘wanted to make an alien-like game that captured the fast-paced action, brutality and fear of those movies’, while also amplifying the action and horror with evil dead ii, whose ‘chain- saws and shotguns are an unbeatable combination!’.1 It would not be an under- statement to say that these two games are up there with the most popular and influential games in game history. Significantly, one of the concerns of the games’ creators – John Carmack and John Romero – was to transfer the dread, suspense and terror that was familiar to film audiences into the game environ- ment. Fast forward to 2004: a new breed of game horror is born again in the form of the pc-game doom 3 (to be released in December 2004 on x-Box).

The title will require the full retail version of DOOM 3, and has not yet been rated by the ESRB. "DOOM 3 defines first-person cinematic action, and the expansion pack continues right where we left off - with a terrifying atmosphere, a new story and one of the most classic weapons ever, the double-barreled shotgun," states Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. "Now that fans have survived the horrors and edge of your seat action of the original, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil delivers players deeper into the heart of the UAC to uncover new secrets and technology used to destroy the demon force that's Hell-bent on destroying you." Building on the most advanced game engine ever created, DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil continues the frightening and gripping single player experience of the blockbuster original.
