Trivia

 * In DotA, Doom used to be known as "Doombringer", which was first kept as "Doom Bringer" in the transition to Dota 2. Later with the January 10, 2013 update, his name was changed to avoid copyright conflicts with "Blizzard Entertainment".


 * Several of Doom's abilities are inspired by Final Fantasy ' s Blue Mages. was based on the Level 5 Death ability and the mechanics of a LVL? S-flare. Devour is highly similar to Quina Quen's eat and cook ability from Final Fantasy IX. His ultimate,, also shares the same name of another Blue Mage ability, but the mechanics differ.


 * His name, Lucifer, is taken from the Bible's Book of Isaiah and translates to "Lightbringer", from Latin lux and fero. It is often used to refer to the Biblical Devil (or Satan), thus fitting Doom's evil and demonic image.


 * Doom's ultimate icon depicts a pentacle which, despite its popular connotation as Satanic/"evil" mark, is actually a Pagan symbol of protection. For its common "evil" symbolism to apply, the pentagram has to be inverted; this only occasionally occurs in-game, as the "star" inside the circle of the ability's particle effect slowly rotates.


 * Doom's response upon taking an, vo_doom_bringer_doom_invis_03.mp3 "Heheheh, see no evil.", refers to the Three wise monkeys and their associated phrase: "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." also has this line.


 * is derived from the Pit Lord's, a playable hero in Warcraft III: Frozen Throne. The original ability varied in that it was only castable on non-hero units, is non-removable, and would spawn a Doomguard on its death. The Doomguard's model was Lucifer's hero model in DotA.
