Several corpses of other Marines are occasionally encountered, and they feature the same uniform as the Doomguy. The Doomguy appears without a helmet, in the ending to The Ultimate Doom episode IV 'Thy Flesh Consumed', then again in the cover art of Doom II where he is fighting a Cyberdemon with a shotgun.įor the player's in-game avatar in single-player mode (also seen in the ending of Doom II), the Doomguy wears green armor and a light grey space helmet that conceals his facial features. This image is also used in the introduction screen of Doom, where the Doomguy has a shotgun clutched in his left hand, while a Baron of Hell kills the grey-uniformed Marine in the background. On the box art for the original Doom, which was done by Don Ivan Punchatz, this shows the Doomguy firing a weapon (which doesn't make an appearance in the final game) at a horde of Demons below him as one of them grabs his left wrist, while a fellow Marine (similar battle dress uniform, except in grey) in the background is rushing to catch up.

The unnamed protagonist of the series is a Marine who often referred to in the fan community as the 'Doomguy'. The Marine as he appears without his helmet in The Ultimate Doom Doom and Doom II Later, when asked, Tom Hall and John Romero confirmed that the Marine was, at least originally, a descendant of Wolfenstein protagonist B.J.

'Dacote' is an acronym for 'Dies at conclusion of this episode', and Buddy was supposed to be killed by a boss at the end of the planned third episode.

Tom Hall's original design draft, 'The Doom Bible', described several planned characters, all of whom went unused in the final version. In 2021, Doom Eternal's director Hugo Martin revealed that the female Doomguy was nearly added, but scrapped due to how much of an endeavor it would have been. In 2020, Romero revealed that the real name of the character is Doomguy. In 2017, John Romero stated that he was the original model of the character for the cover box art. The character sprites were created by Adrian Carmack, based on an initial sketch and clay model he made. Romero described this choice as increasing player immersion: 'There was never a name for the marine because it's supposed to be YOU '. The Marine is not referred to by name in the original game. He received mainly positive reviews, with some critics praising him as the Doom series' badass and violent protagonist.
