Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

If Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto are brothers, then who are their parents?

Re: Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

what?,...i've often thought of this myself, will they (if they exist) ever show up, probably not since no lore i can find has pointed to there being "parents". im guessing they were just spawned the same as every other demon

Re: Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

The "English" word diablo comes from the Spanish which means "Devil" aka satan.

I believe his mother was my mother-in-law. I have no seen family likeness amongst my brothers-in-law or sister-in-law bt I am sure the mother-in-laws two sisters are witches (not as good looking as the flying babes in D1/D2 though)

Re: Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

i am not sure about mother, but father?.......

i think tyriel could be, after all if you read all lores you could see that he is the nicest person to them and kept them alive and made pack when every one was against that, so is it possible that.... Tyriel is they Father?



P.S. Luke.... I AM your Father (star wars)

Re: Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

As far as the lore of Diablo goes all hell creatures ( demons, ... etc etc ) get spawned from the Abyss of Darkness, so probably the three brothers were some of the first demons to be born from that abyss ( hence the "Prime Evils" title ) , and probably around the same time ( hence the "Brothers" title ).

But this is 80% speculation.

Re: Who are Diablo, Baal, and Mephisto's Parents?

I like to think of it in a somewhat "science view". You have a positive and negative. Both equal in matter and complete opposites. In Diablo terms that would be The High Heavens and The Burning Hells. They're both opposites and are equally matched in force and knowledge (That's why Sanctuary is important, even a pin drop to say would over throw the balance and eventually choose the winner of the Great Conflict. However the Balance isn't meant to be confused with the Necromancers and Trag'Oul.). Now that we have our two divisions, they are made up of many sentiments of energy, much like stocks to a company. I look at it as with the Primes consist of the most "negative enregy" thus making them stronger than all in one side or "CEOs". I don't think there is much of a birth process, but just a seperation and gathering of dark matter or eternal energy. But where that came from and the start of everything? Who knows. It could be simialr to McFarlen's Spawn of God vs Satan in this world when there's an unspeakable Deity/God to them that just is everything much like Buhdism.

EDIT: or it is possible that Chris Metzen's best friend is acid... which could explain a lot.... Look at what it did for Black Sabbath, Iggy Pop, or Ministry.
