how about an angel

how about playing tyrael or a tyrael type character. I would love to see that!

I wouldn't mind either. But not exactly like Tyreal, he's too strong. I remember saying Heaven told him not help the heroes. But I have no idea how they would fit that into the lore or gameplay since the angels in DII are hella huge, haha.

Lesser rank fallen angel trying to win back heaven's blessing?

Hodl Pu · 16-07-2008, 20:48

hmm perhaps. Do you have a picture of an Angel that might fit the game? I'm picturing in my head Tyreal but scaled down... and it looks terrible and corny.

Not too sure about an angel as a base class. Can an angel be killed by a quill rat?

Maybe a tyrael set with avatar affect?

It wouldn't fit. Something special about Diablo is that all the playable characters are humans (some in less degree like the druid xD but still humans)

And I wouldn't like an angel that can be killed by a quill rat xD.

bring an angel(or demon as others suggested) does not really fit with the game imo.

Remember that there's a difference between the ArchAngels (i.e. Tyreal, Hadriel, etc) and "standard" Angels.

They could be weakened for being on the earth, cast down, "fallen" and seeking redemption - it's workable...

But having just one "non-human" would be dodgy...

Apocalypse · 17-07-2008, 13:57

agreed, the best thing about diablo is it sticks to human classes, no damn elves or dwarves here

And the same for demons. But I think we will have to wait for the diablo mmorpg before we can play as a fallen shaman, goatman archer, succubus mage, or an angelic paladin.
