Introduction
Since the beginning of time, the forces of order and chaos have been engaged in an eternal struggle to decide the fate of all creation. That struggle has now come to the mortal realm... and neither man nor angel will be left unscathed....

Diablo, the Lord of Terror and the youngest of three prime evils, awoke from his long sleep with plans to free his exiled brothers, Mephisto and Baal. But, a nameless hero stood in Diablo's way, confronting the Lord of Terror in the hellish labyrinth beneath Tristram. Diablo's spirit could never be truly destroyed, so the hero made the noblest sacrifice of all. He took the spirit of Diablo into himself, hoping that his own strength of will could contain the demon within.

The hero could never have known that his selfless act would not only ensure Diablo's victory, but irrevocably damn his soul for all time.
