“The villainous Overlord, resplendent in gold-and-green power armor, rocketed up the access hole and snarled a curse at the superheroes who had invaded his complex.” (Denis Loubet cover for The Space Gamer 48, February 1982, featuring characters from Aaron Allston’s article “Look! Up in the sky . . ., The evolution of a Champions campaign”)

Would the Doomguy survive castle dracula? (I should specify, I mean the Doomguy not the Doomslayer. They are the same person technically, but at different points in time, and the early Doom continuity is very different from the modern one. Doomslayer has the whole demigod thing going on and is in the 2016 game and eternal, Doomguy is from Dooms 1, 2, Final, and 64. So basically, he's an ordinary man, albeit a very strong man, who is proficient with a variety of firearms, has been to Hell 3-5 times, and keeps getting kicked out for killing to many demons. Also, his great-grandpa beat the angel of death in a fight once, if that counts for anything)
So you'd think so, right? But consider, Castle Dracula play's on Doomguy's greatest weakness:
KEYS.
Castle Dracula is composed of doors, doors, doors, all of them locked. Doomguy needs a blue key. He has a red key. He makes it through the 'not technically locked' door into the secret area and finds... a yellow key. (Does Doomguy sleep? I don't think he sleeps so he leaves the ladies wing again when he discovers it contains no grenade launchers). IF he makes it down to the ruined chapel to loot Dracula's "corpse" the best he can find is a green key. None of the doors have green locks. He's in his own personal hell and he's been to actual Hell.
Now it's tempting to say that Doomguy's whole job is to blast fiends back to the pit with extreme prejudice. But coming in to Castle Dracula guns a-blazing isn't usually a winning strategy, especially when all you start with is your sidearm. Dracula is not considerate enough to leave boxes of chainsaws or BFGs or the things that turns enemies into chickens just sitting around his Castle. This isn't some fully equipped Martian military base that just happened to open a portal to Hell, this is Dracula's home, and he's prepared for his visitor extensively. Who do you think left all those frustratingly mismatched keys lying around?
Now the real question is: can Castle Dracula run Doom? And I suppose that depends on how heavily Dracula has invested in the new Nintendo trading card company, or perhaps the computing power of three Girlies worth of organized dust motes...
In conclusion, Doomguy can not survive Castle Dracula
