She has shown in the past that she had the capacity to love and to care for others. So why did Blizzard seemingly choose to make Lilith the new big bad of Diablo IV? For a start, she is not completely evil, or at least not as evil as other demons. Her gaze was ice-cold, lacking any of the passion one might associate with a succubus. Succubi are interesting and all, but do you want a sleazy demon as your primary antagonist in a game? The Lilith we saw in the announcement trailer was regal and foreboding. It looks like we won’t be getting that here, thank goodness. We already had a minor boss, the Maiden of Lust, in Diablo III, who raunchily taunted the players as they made their way into Hell. In the CGI trailer, it appears as if they have downplayed Lilith’s succubus origins. She didn’t seem too tough then, but she has also had a lot of time to stew in her demonic rage. I barely even remember whirlwinding through her with my Barb back in the early aughts. She was simply a darker Andariel model that players encountered. You actually fight her in Diablo II, but she didn’t seem too special at the time.
#WHO WAS THE VOICE IN DIABLO IV TRAILER SERIES#
Lilith as she appeared in a canceled comic book series meant to explore the origins of Sanctuary.Īfterward, Lilith makes a few appearances in the lore. It is possible Blizzard decided it didn’t want any outside writers exploring the upcoming villain, so today’s reveal might finally explain why the comic was canceled after all. However, the comic would have taken place far in the past, before Lilith’s various defeats and incarnations on Sanctuary. The artwork and design for Lilith also appear different in the comic. But they were canceled because Blizzard wanted to change the direction of the story. Supposedly, a series of comics books on her origin were scheduled to release last year. But as we saw in Diablo I, II, and III, the nephalem are still a force capable of defeating angels or demons. He then crippled the power of the nephalem to ensure that the balance of good and evil would not be threatened. Inarius managed to defeat her, however, and he banished her from Sanctuary. Her demonic nature unable to be contained, she sought to rule over Sanctuary with the nephalem as her own army. She slew his followers, but given her feelings for him, she spared his life. Fallen from graceĮventually, Lilith gave up any pretense of living peacefully and betrayed her lover. Heaven and Hell both had reason to be afraid of the nephalem, and the tantalizing appeal of such power soon corrupted Lilith. How much more powerful? All humans in Sanctuary are descendants of the nephalem, and nephalem (the player characters) defeated the prime evils in three subsequent games. The nephalem had the potential to be the most powerful beings in creation. This made the forces of good and evil even angrier. A nephalem stands before the Worldstone in Diablo II.Įventually, the two had offspring: the nephalem.
