Monoculus is the RED Demoman's missing eye, haunted by the Bombinomicon. It was summoned by Merasmus when the RED Soldier broke his staff.


In the Bombinomicon comic, it is depicted as a large floating eye that fires purple rocket-like eyeballs.

The Monoculus will spawn at random intervals, in which the players have 1 minute 30 seconds to defeat it, or he will disappear.

It's projectiles can be deflected, similar to Soldier Rockets. At random intervals, it will teleport, leaving a swirling, purple vortex where it last was. Players are able to enter this vortex, and will be taken to the Underworld. Upon entering the Underworld, the player spawn on an island, with a portal on another island. The first player who enters this portal will stun the Monoculus for as long as it takes for him to reach the ground.

Upon the Monoculus' defeat, it will drop an opened Bombinomicon, surrounded by a red swirling vortex. Players who enter this will again spawn in the Underworld, at the base of a hill. Ontop of the hill is a large skull, and a cage, containing the Bombinomicon. The cage slowly descends into the ground where players can collect the Bombinomicon.


He has a life bar. As the life bar is whittled away (at increments of 25%), Monoculus will be stunned temporarily, sinking to the ground and ceasing his attacks for a few seconds.

Monoculus is capable of teleporting randomly around the map. As he teleports, a portal will appear behind him. This portal will pull in nearby players and transport them to an "Underworld" which will constantly damage them until they escape via a large glowing gateway. Escaping the Underworld grants Critical Hits, Ubercharge and a speed boost to the player.

When Monoculus dies he will sink into the ground, leaving behind purple flames and an image of the Bombinomicon, which will teleport the player to Loot Island.
