The Icon in MAP30: Icon of Sin

The Icon of Sin (sometimes called Baphomet in both the Doom community and various levels and add-ons) is the boss of Doom II MAP30: Icon of Sin as well as MAP30 of TNT: Evilution and Plutonia (In which it is referred to as the "Gatekeeper"). See the walkthrough for a gameplay description.

All the other monsters are a single Doom thing, but the Icon of Sin is made up of a number of parts:

• Romero's head is the thing that must be destroyed. It starts with 250 hit points, but it is hard to hit due to its location deep in a hole.
• A Spawn shooter in front of the head launches skull cubes.
• Several Spawn spots are located around the map. These are where the skull cubes land and spawn a monster.
• Wall textures ZZZFACE1 through ZZZFACE9 are arranged to construct a demon face with a hole into its brain. This is what the player sees as the Icon, but it has little to do with its functioning.

Notes

• The Icon of Sin is also displayed in the MARBFACE texture.
• It spawns a potentially endless series of monsters, all of which count towards the player's end-of-level kill percentage; as a consequence of this, the player can finish the level with a greater than 100% kill percentage.
