Vad hände med hjältarna från Diablo 1?

Det finns tips om att Rogue är Blood Raven:

"My Rogue scouts have just reported an abomination in the Monastery graveyard! Apparently, Andariel is not content to take only our living. Blood Raven, one of our finest captains in the battle against Diablo at Tristram, was also one of the first to be corrupted by Andariel. Now, you'll find her in the Monastery graveyard raising our dead as zombies! We cannot abide this defilement! If you are truly our ally, you will help us destroy her."

Och att den (falska) summoneren du möter är Sorceraren från Diablo 1, som antyds av Drognan:

"Not long ago, one of my Vizjerei comrades, who I believed had died in Tristram, came to this city. He seemed quite insane, so I dismissed much of what he said. However, he was able to talk his way into Jerhyn's palace. No one has seen him since. I fear that fool may have found something in the palace that led to his doom."

Och senare ger dig uppdraget:

"Yes... The man you speak of sounds like the mage who came here many months ago. He claimed to have fought Diablo in the passages beneath Tristram. No doubt the fool wandered into Horazon's Sanctuary and lost whatever was left of his ravaged mind. He is beyond salvation. It is possible that the fool has been possessed by the spirit of Horazon. If that's true, then you'd better put an end to his tortured existence. Once done, I believe the demons who were summoned and imprisoned within the Sanctuary will cease to exist as well."

~ Drognan ger Summoner Quest.

Så det framträder i spelkanonen, kämpade alla tre hjältarna Diablo, med endast en som blev den mörka vandraren. De andra gick dit på egen väg, The Rogue återupptog Sightless Eye-systrarna och blev till och med den förstörda blodraven, och The Sorcerer reser till Lut Gholein för att bli den (falska) Summoner.
