(updated version)




Ultimate Doom and Doom3:

?????? BC: On Mars lived two races, the humanoid race, skilled at building, they had built great temples and monuments.
They were visited one day by the Spiders, a highly intelligent but somewhat unevolved race fully dependent on their
technology which was vast who had been scouting the galaxy looking for other races. In a joint project the Spiders and
Humanoids began many experiments on Mars and it's moons the most prominent being teleportation. The Spiders with their
immense intelligence thought up the designs and the Humanoids with their building skills did the actual building of the
devices.

?????? BC:  After mastering the art of teleportation and bringing the technology into even such forms as hand-held units
the Spiders became the main race in charge of the portals the humanoids became only mildly involved preferring to work with
there own mystic technology. The spiders soon however start receiving life signs from the portals and they begin sending
out scouting parties and setting up small bases on the other side hoping to colonize the other side.Eventually the base
camps went out of contact and the scouting parties went missing. This was followed by a massive assault by the demons,
the life on the other side. This battle wages for many years as the Spiders technology almost match the demons endless
numbers. The other side is revealed to be Hell itself.
                             


         The Great War occurring.



?????? BC: While the Spiders spent there time using brute force to hold off the invaders the humanoids tried another
method, they built the "soul-cube" a device that can destroy any creature but at the cost of an a soul. The humanoids
sacrificed most of their own kind to fuel the cube then sent their mightiest warrior through the portal while the
remainder of the race used the teleporters to escape to what is now Earth and start on life. The Spiders fight to the
end and ultimately to their doom as they are eventually exhausted of supplies and energy and thus overwhelmed by the demons.  

?????? BC: Believing that enough time had past that Mars was safe, the survivors go back and build temples depicting the
mighty war that took place and tribute to the great warrior. They build a burial chamber for the warier. The soul cube
is locked away along with the blueprints for teleporter technology along with warnings not to rebuild the teleporters.

?????? BC: Using the hundreds of Spiders, now under Hell's control as scientists. Baphomet has them build a teleporter
in Hell that would allow them to escape into our dimension. They build a portal right into Baphomet's body and hook the
control into his brain allowing him to control the portal at his will. Unfortunately it can't be finished due to lack of
proper material and components, Hell waits.

2130 AD: UAC corp builds their first facilities on Mars and power plants and testing facilities on its two moons Phobos
and Deimos using revolutionary technology that can take the natural and highly toxic material of Mars and turn it into
usable elements.

2115 AD: The UAC discovers the inital chamber built by the humanoids when adding on to the Mars base.

2144 AD: Doom 1 marine sent to UAC Mars awaiting court martial. Doom 1 marine is assigned a security post at Mars City,
his days consisted of suck'n dust and watching restricted flicks in the rec room.

2144 AD: UAC scientists find the soulcube and tablets showing how the teleporters work, the spider race is inexplicably
not told about in any of the tablets. UAC uses these blueprints to build their own portals. They begin teleportation
experiments using designs found in the ancient temples, first far distance teleporters are built between Phobos and
Deimos.

2145 AD: Dr. Betruger for unknown reasons goes into the portal and gets possessed then comes back and is used as a puppet
for Baphomet to prepare Mars for the invasion. These tasks include crippling computers with powerful viruses and bringing
the Soul-cube to Hell. Baphomet refuses to start another invasion while the soul cube was in our hands.

2145 AD 10:32 AM:  during a teleporter test on Mar's moons the demons attack through the gates and lead a massive assault on the Phobos and Deimos. The demons use a powerful spell to bring all of Deimos to Hell, now with the supplies stored in the Deimos base the Spiders now have all the supplies they need to finish the portal.

2145 AD 10:48 AM: Doom 1 Marine is sent up to Phobos along with a large detachment of the troops from Mars after receiving
a distress call from Phobos. He is ordered to secure the perimeter while the rest go in. All are killed but one.
(Doom 1 starts)

2145 AD 11:06 AM: Doom 3 marine transferred to UAC Mars. (Doom 3 starts)

2145 AD 11:34 PM: Sarge sends Doom 3 marine to look for Ishii, the problem on Phobos is kept quite by the higher ups.

2145 AD 11:48 PM: Doom 3 marine finds Ishii, Doom 1 continues his fight on Phobos.

2145 AD 11:49 AM: Hell invades mars through the portal and over a curse of 30 minutes kills almost every marine on the
base doom 3 marine moves out.

2145 AD 12:36 AH: Doom3 marine makes it to Admin. Hell's teleporter is finished and Monsters are now teleported into the
base any place any time on Mars.

2145 AD 3:24 PM: Doom 3 marine makes it to Delta labs, Doom 1 marine defeats the Cyberdemon lord of the lost Deimos base
in Hell.

2145 AD 4:29 PM: Doom 3 marine finds Delta teleporter and gets sent to an outlying area of Hell but does not find much
opposition due to the chaos that the doom 1 marine is causing, Spider mastermind tries frantically to contain him. After
the doom 3 marine finds the Soul-Cube Baphomet lets the marine back to Mars.

2145 AD 6:06 PM: Doom1 marine makes it to the tower of Dis and defeats the spider mastermind, Bahoment opens the
teleporter in the tower that was intended for the spider mastermind to get to Earth the doom marine uses it.
Unknown to him, Baphomet uses the teleporter technology to put him into a stasis midway through porting over by putting
the marine through a "slow teleport." The Doom 3 marine defeats the cyberdemon guarding Hells portal gate on Mars.
The Soul-Cube closes the Portal gate the only way it can, by going into it. This event once again deactivates the
Soul-Cube's shield and Earth is open to attack by Hell's mastered gate technology.



2 Years Pass....



Doom3: Resurrection of Evil (ROE):

2146 AD: Dr. Mc. Neil, former scientist for the UAC brings teams of volunteer scientists and technicians along with
several detachments of Mars-Sec to investigate a strange signal radiating from deep in the Mars ruins that had been
picked up on satellite. The ROE marine and his squad head down to the ruins and find the artifact locked away. This
had been done by the humanoid warrior to keep anyone from finding it. Once the ROE marine touches it, Baphomet's
presence is released into the base. Baphomet reopens the old humanoid teleporter in the ruins and uses it to send
his army back through and into the Mars base once again. Their task, to kill all and retrieve the artifact.

2146 AD: 1 hour later: The ROE marine meets up with Professor Cloud and learns more about the artifact. He learns that
Baphomet had created 3 powerful demons called "The Hunters" who want to retrieve the artifact. He also learns that
The Artifact is not only a magical weapon but part of a gateway from Hell.        
(see below for Artifact information)

2146 AD: 3 hours later: The ROE marine defeats all three of  "The Hunters" with each one he defeats the Artifact grows in
power. Unknown to the marine, this is exactly what Baphomet wants. For soon after the last Hunter is beaten the now fully
operational Artifact activates, acting as a range amplifier it then allows Baphomet to send his army to Earth. He also
starts opening a Hell Hole in Delta Labs.

2147 AD: 2 hours later: The Artifact is returned to Hell and the ROE marine shoves The Artifact down Betruger's throat
destroying Betruger and The Artifact, but it's too late to stop the invasion of Earth. After that the ROE marine dies
from the wounds sustained from fighting Betruger.



Doom2: Hell on Earth:

2147 AD: After leaving the "slow teleport" the Doom1 marine finds Earth under attack and his pet rabbit Daisy, dead. He
sets out to fight for Earth's freedom.

2147 AD two hours later : Doom 1 marine  destroys lots of demon food factories. He then finds the Spider acting as General
for the attacking forces. He defeats the Spider and hurts the chain of command greatly.

2147 AD: Doom 3 marine arrives with the fellow marines to find Earth invaded. After meeting with remainder of Earth's
population he learns that the space port has been covered with a flame barrier holding Earth's population hostage. He
sets out with the marines for an assault on the space port but he quickly loses track of them and he is on his own.

2147 AD: two and a half hours later : The flame barrier is deactivated and Earths population flees. He then gets a message
from Earth control telling him of the location of the master portal, a Hell Hole. He moves there. He later gets there and
cannot find a way to destroy it on that end so he goes through it and into Hell.

2147 AD: Doom 3 marine defeats Baphomet and destroys the teleporter ending the invasion, the explosion devastates untold
miles of Hell



Final Doom: TNT Evilution:

The UAC now under strict government supervision now opened up a station on Io, a moon of Jupiter, hoping that the
increased distance would help if something ever took over the base again. Now that Hell had mastered their teleporters
and had rebuilt the portal it no longer needed to rely on our gates. Some were in space they opened up a gigantic gate
and through it a hellish ship came through, it's first stop was the Io base. The marine was not at the base when the
Hell-craft was mistaken for the monthly supply ship and the demons poored out into the base, you were a few miles away
enjoying a walk on the moons surface. After being attacked by an Imp he hot footed it back to the base to find it
attacked. The marine fought through the base and ultimately boarded the Hell-craft and destroys Baphomet's new teleporter.


Final Doom Plutonia Experiment:

(Read about portal gates in the expanded info section before you continue!)

2146 AD: The UAC is re founded under completely new management after the invasion of Io, the corporation now focused on
research tools and development trying to create a Quantum Accelerator that could close the gates Hell creates. But
unfortunately to learn how to close gates the scientists needed to learn how to open them. They set up gates surrounded
by fortified defenses and it DID keep the demons back until one day Baphomet opened a Portal Gate and created seven of
them throughout the facility overwhelming the defenders. The marine after learning of this drives to the facility and
after fighting fighting and more fighting he gets to Baphomet's chamber. Baphomet had teleported himself to Earth and
hooked up the the main portal of the facility. After the marine defeats Baphomet and stopped his plan the ruined
teleporter creates an unstable portal and sucks everything back to Hell including the ruined prototype accelerator,
Earth is safe from Hell for good.



Expanded Info:

Hunters: The Hunters were spawned by Baphomet from the very powers The Artifact was to contain (read below)  
(Hell-time, Berserk, and Invincibility) Once The Artifact was finished they would sacrifice themselves to it and give their
powers to it. When the artifact was stolen by the humanoid warier the three Hunters looked unsuccessfully for the artifact
this is how they got the name "The Hunters." Now with another chance to fulfill their destiny they will fight to the death
with the ROE marine, literally. They would prefer to defeat the ROE marine and do the ritual properly. But if they must
lose the fight with the marine to give their power to it, so be it.



The Artifact: The pride of all technology engineered for Hell the Artifact is simply put 'a teleport range amplifier' built
combining a magical heart made out of Baphomet's own flesh with spider technology. Since it is made of Baphomet himself
it has his very presence contained within This allow Baphomet to practically be in Hell and where ever The Artifact is at
the same time. When it was stolen by the Martian hero it was locked away, he knew what it's purpose was, and to protect
his fleeing kind he hoped it'd never be found. However in 2147 seeing the perfect opportunity, the small essence of
Baphomet inside the Artifact began to emit a signal into space hopefully to lure unsuspecting the humans to it and to
unintentionally release Baphomet's essence stored within. This is what happened in ROE, when touched by the ROE marine
the artifact released Baphomet's presence into the base and the old Martian teleporter and activates it which allows the
demons to come through. However once the ROE marine had it, he wasn't leting go. unfortunately for us Baphomet decided to
send the Hunters to the marine for him to kill, thus powering up the Artifact for them which would allow Hell to open a
portal gate.



Understanding Hell's gates: Hell's gate has two different gate types it can create. This guide will attempt to explain
which gate is which and in which game each is used. The most simple gate to open is a gateway portal this type is the
easiest to create but is dependent on another teleporter in the neighboring universe to be opened first. This neighboring
teleporter is a link between the two detentions. Baphomet can then simply teleport a soldier through that link and anywhere
on the other side up to a short range. This type of gate was seen every time a monster was teleported in, in Doom3 and ROE.
The other type of gate is a portal gate Which is much more complex and requires much more energy. This simply put, is when
Hell opens a stable portal in another universe and then proceeds to teleport monsters through. This creates a "Hell hole"
on the other side that the creatures enter and exit from, this "Hell hole" distorts and changes the area around it for about
a half-mile into a very Hellish atmosphere. These areas are seen throughout the games including the level Gotcha in doom2
and the Hell hole at the end of Doom3 and Delta labs at the end of ROE. However these can only be made by powerful demons.
Thus Baphomet has to somehow get a soldier to our universe first.



Teleport Platforms: Also, there are small red or grey platforms in the classic Doom games that are stationary teleporters,
always on, used to go from one place to another. Baphomet can create these and keep these fairly low-energy consuming
portals open AFTER the surrounding area's terrain has been logged and mapped into Baphomet's teleporter computers. This
is necessary for coordinates and such so that portals don't open underground or inside walls.
