help you on your journey," a line previously said by Samuel Hayden when offering the Slayer an Argent cache, and with a similar voice, as the two characters share Darin De Paul as their voice actor. In particular, the Seraphim is heard to speak the line, "Take it, it will give you strength. Certain similarities between Samur and Samuel Hayden prompted speculation that the two characters were somehow connected. His ultimate fate remained unknown, as did his motives for aiding the Slayer. He disappeared shortly afterwards, and was presumed exiled by the Argenta. Having stolen the essence of the Father from Urdak in defiance of the Khan Maykr, Samur was impressed by the Doom Slayer and secretly gifted him superhuman strength, speed, and endurance using a Maykr device called the Divinity Machine. In a flashback from the Doom Slayer's point of view that is corroborated by codex entries, it is revealed that the Seraphim is the Maykr known as Samur Maykr, the former chancellor of the Khan Maykr who went rogue for initially unknown reasons as no Maykr was thought to be able to disobey the Khan Maykr, his rebellion opened up further question as to how he could do so - it is later revealed that the Seraphim as a species are of a higher order than other Maykrs and are not subject to the dominance of the Khan. The trailer of The Ancient Gods, Part One reveals that his mask is a more human-like one compared to other Maykrs, with gold plating where the eyes would be and a prominent blue eye (which resembles Hayden's single eye) on the forehead (contrast with Maykr angels, who have a red one). ![]() In Doom Eternal it is shown that he has typical Maykr angel tentacles and hands, but he has no staff, Orator Ring or head crest that can be seen beneath his cloak.

Among these is a picture (an etching from the Book of Daeva) that is now known to contain an image of the Seraphim in the upper left corner. ![]() Little information could be extracted from a few entries in the codex. Although the word is plural (the singular form is "seraph"), in the context of Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal, the name applies both to this single character and to the entire species of similar beings. One detail known for certain from the beginning was that he was opposed to the forces of Hell: he is said to have gifted the Doom Slayer with super-human powers of speed and strength. Samur Maykr, better known as the Seraphim, is an entity mentioned in the lore of Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal about which little was initially known. ![]() Etching from the Book of Daeva as displayed in the codex.
