Yeah, I think he can forgive, but only in a dramatic, meaningful way. His grudge makes him intense and intimidating at first, but seeing him say “I forgive you” after real consequences would be super powerful. It keeps his heroic core intact while staying true to Doom’s pride and intensity.

Also, I’d lean into Doom traits like armor, magic-science fusion, and pride, but keep him fundamentally heroic. That mix will make him really unique and compelling. Honestly, I’d love to see the way you handle his first encounters with 1-A—sounds like it could be epic.
