Maykrs also undergo some kind of death-like process called Transfiguration after enough time has passed, in which they die and are resurrected, or possibly reincarnated. The other Maykrs are unable to disobey her, and once her time is up, a new one is created to replace her. The Khan Maykr is basically the ruler of Urdak and the Maykrs, formed from their collective consciousness once every 10,000 years. Khan isn't a name in this context, it's a title.

| Joel Franey/USgamer, id Software/Bethesda Softworks Who is the Khan Maykr and What is Transfiguration? The Khan Maykr is at the epicentre of events leading up to Doom Eternal. While all this happened, Urdak remained in a dimension said to be "above" the regular universe, separated and distinct from reality. Whichever it was, Father was mostly gone, with the exception of some element or essence of it that still remained in a construct called the Luminarium, a shrine that the Maykrs would visit to receive answers and guidance. This all came at some sort of physical cost to Father, who either split to become the Maykrs themselves or merged with Urdak, it's all left very unclear. The further back events happen in Doom Eternal's story the vaguer they tend to be, but we know Urdak was built by some sort of powerful and logical alien entity known as Father, and he populated it with divine beings known as Maykrs. To begin we have to go back… well, to the beginning, and a technologically-advanced alien city called Urdak. However, we've chaptered each section with a question many people might have, so if you're looking for a specific answer, just click the right question above! We also recognise that people might have alternate theories or that new information might be discovered, so we'll be sure to update this info accordingly if need be. To make this as easy and digestible as possible, we've laid out the events of Doom Eternal and everything leading up to it in roughly chronological order, allowing you to read through normally.
