You can transform Lennox into Raxxla with a Vigenere key gwkkxd. But it's not that, it just sounds like Lennox's DBX may have had something in the logs that even he didn't know about, and Romero saw it during maintenance, and caught the fernweh.

John Romero also gave us Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and ehhhhhhhh Diakatana.Following up on Gurus advice: Loads of Romeros on Wiki. Most of them seem to be content playing football, serve the church or to be Artistes. None of the is/was an explorer of any kind, one is a game designer who gave us Quake.
It could have been Drew's Anaconda.I was curious to see if I might see something Raxxla-related in the patch notes from Gamma, and sure enough, buried way down in the list ... "Secret added". Lots of people in the comments seemed to suspect that it meant Thargoids, but since the Thargoids didn't show up until much later, I suspect it was Raxxla (whatever that may be). I think it's neat that they put things like that in the patch notes. I think I'll continue to look over the more recent patch notes to see if any clues might be lurking about.

Probably it was in this thread already. This logo of Raxxla looks like triple aspect of Hecate who often was imaged as a triple woman figure. She brings the light by holding torches. Also same visual and back was for Artemis, Persephone and Eileithyia (Ilithyia) who lights the dark for the children. There are two systems with this names but no any variations of Eileithyia.
P.s. My bad English's joke: Ilithyia - Elite(yia)
Trying to assing any hidden meaning behind the image is probably a waste of energy. Even if the image somehow contains a deeper hidden meaning it is unlikely that we'll be able to decode that meaning without the right context.
Mountains right?
It could have been Drew's Anaconda.
I am pretty sold on Hecate ( ya some of this has been gone over before.)
Yup - The strophalos or circle of hecate is very similar to the inner part of the raxxla logo. ( circle with three arcs)
A door that is also a key.... Hecate is a goddess of gateways/ transitions and key bearer....
From the bits and pieces of the Chaldean Oracles it depicts Hecate as something of a conduit between realms...
This gets into Neoplatonism and Starts me on the song of the spheres and sirens ...
Check this paper out: "Sirens: From the Deadly Song to the Music of the Spheres. Homeric Readings and Platonic Interpretations"
To tie things up we go to the Myth of Er from Platos Republic where he describes the gates of hell. (and talks about Lady Fate, which to be honest I thought Id hear more of)
Here is an interesting paper talking about "PLATO’S X & HEKATE’S CROSSROADS ASTRONOMICAL LINKS TO THE MYSTERIES OF ELEUSIS
well atleast its giving me some new ideas on where to look...
