Bartuc appears in DIablo 1 as the Warlord of Blood, and reappears again in act 5 as the leader of one of Baal's 5 waves of monsters he summons. Unless that's not him in Diablo 1, then his only appearance is in act 5.
If you know the full story of Warcraft you would know it was orginally suppose to be a computerised version of Warhammer, specifically, a Humans vs. Orcs campaign, there was a falling out between Games Workshop (who owns the rights to Warhammer) and Blizzard. Blizzard took what they had made so far and made Warcraft.
Warhammer orcs are green.
Blizzard also improved and changed the warcraft lore with each new sequel.
okay, and, so they had the orcs green, because they didn't know that they were corrupted by the scourge?... sounds... okay i guess... and linkx, i can post as many times in a row as i want... and seriously... pick up wc2 and play that one through... then maybe you'll get it...
Anyone who wears bartucs armor turn into him, right? so that means baal was in posession of the armor when he got to kurast. He probably just outfitted one of the corrupt council members with it and then brought him to harrogoth.
Huh? what are you guys talking about? The armor is in Diablo 1. The Warlord of Blood is in full plate. Bartuc in act 5 is naked. He looks like any other council member.
and linkx, i can post as many times in a row as i want...

Actually they were currupted by that demon guy. Can't remember his name off the top of my head. But yea, if you read the WC2 manual, the history and all kinda points to them not having that idea originally. It seems like it was a work-in-progress.
I just read the end of legacy of blood. The end of the book is when the wanderer reaches act 2 in the diablo 2 timeframe. Horazon put on bartucs armor and turned into sand, along with the armor. Bartuc in act 5 cannot be wearing bartucs armor, so wtf?
Bartuc in act 5 cannot be wearing bartucs armor, so wtf?
That was essentually my question from earlier.
If he is in his armor in d1 and you kill him i nthat game. how can he be in d2 for you to kill him again. Whether in his armor or not, and from his in-game look, it would appear he isnt wearing his armor, as well that guy Legacy of Blood is suppose to be wearing it, and that book takes place between D1 and D2. and esp, between D1 and act 5, due to the elapsed time between act 4 and act 5.

That is unless the person wearing the armor in D1 was the thief who stumbled upon it. That might make more sense. It did seem that the distance he traveled in the book would take some time. I mean the armor marched him until he passed out on several occasions. That would seem to me like at least a few weeks of time have passed, possibly months. Assuming the guy wasn't in terrible shape.:D
Well, I don't know. How many years was it between D1 and D2 in game?

A few. 5 maybe 10. Based on how old Marius looks in the asylum compared to how his looks in his flashback recaps. But It is implied it's a fairly sizable gap.
"I have been searching for you for long time, marius. I was beginning to think you didn't want to be found"
Well thats for d1 - act 5. D1 d2 can be anywhere from 3 weeks to a year or so. Cain says the Warrior stayed in Tristram for a few weeks after besting Diablo.

I thought Marius looked bad because of the stone. Not the time. "Look what the stone has done to me!"
And you know the stone aged him how? Can he not be referring to the fact he is now in a mental asylum, i.e it drove him there. After all the crap he saw, who would believe his story, he must be mad, let's lock 'em up.
If I saw half the things he did, I might think myself mad.

lol, the whole Marius thing is sooo confusing. Actually, thats a good question for Blizzard!
Question: How long is the time-gap between Act IV and Act V? (In other words, how long after Diablo is defeated does it take Marius to end up in an Asylum and for Baal to find him?
Another Question: How long is the time-gap between Diablo and Diablo II?
(I'm not sure if you're still sending them questions or not though, you didn't quite say)
But no, I don't think Norrec was the Warlord of Blood in DI, because Norrec didn't get hold of the helmet until DII Act II. And when he did get hold of the helmet, it was very quickly taken away from him.
In Legacy of Blood, they talk about buring the armour right after they defeated Bartuc the first time, way back in the day during the early hours of the Sin War, not just a little while ago below Tristram. I think the Warlord was just below Tristram for us to have some fun lol. Or, (like Bartuc the Bloody), he was somehow summoned by Diablo.
OR
The Warlord of Blood below Tristram is just an imitation of the Warlord, derived from Prince Albrecht's mind.
"Empowered by Diablo's possession of young Albrecht, the creatures of the boy's own imagination had gained corporeal form. So Strong was the terror that grew inside of Albrecht, that the borders of the Mortal realm began to warp and tear. The Burning Hell began to seep into the world of Man and take root within the labyrinth. Beings and occurrences displaced by time and space, and long lost to the history of Man were pulled screaming into the ever-expanding domain."
Maybe the boy heard of the legendary tales of Bartuc, and had always regarded the Warlord with fear? That could also explain why the Warlord isn't that strong and does't really use any of his magnificant spells?
EDIT: Yet another question:
Q) Is the Warlord of Blood in Diablo I the real Warlord of Blood? Or just some sort of imitation derived from Prince Albrecht's imagination?
Question: When we see the Prime Evils in Diablo 2, are they in their real forms or not? Diablo is said my Mephisto to assume his true form, but does he actually do it? And what about Baal inside Tal Rasha and Mephisto inside the Que-Hegan, are they in their true forms?

so when sanctuary was born how did inarius and the others invovled make the worldstone. or was it the angels?
another question
when the worldstone is destroyed what happens to trag' oul. since he is sorta one with sanctuary and sanctuary is sorta one with the worldstone does trag ou vanish, or get weaker or something?
If he is in his armor in d1 and you kill him i nthat game. how can he be in d2 for you to kill him again. Whether in his armor or not, and from his in-game look, it would appear he isnt wearing his armor, as well that guy Legacy of Blood is suppose to be wearing it, and that book takes place between D1 and D2. and esp, between D1 and act 5, due to the elapsed time between act 4 and act 5.
I suppose since he's evil, when you killed him in Diablo 1, he went to hell. So when the 3 prime evils opened the infernal gate, he came back from hell. :confused:

What is normal? Normal is a concept that everyone or a majority of people are the same or similar. However, we know that everyone is unique. If everyone is unique, then everyone is different. If everyone is different, then everyone is weird. If everyone is weird, then everyone is normal.

dude, explain to me the story of warcraft then... ik you'll be wrong.. but go on...

That's assiming a demon would go to hell when it died. It could just die. You kill Diablo, smash his stone ans trap his essence in the Black Abyss, not Hell. But there is a stone invloced in that. Izual is another one of those exception cases. But generally spwaking when you kill a demon it dies. No "little nicky" stuff going on here. Or you could kill a demon, go to Hell and met it again.
This does not happen in the Diablo series, at least not to my knowledge, With the exception of Bartuc, The Bloody, aka. the Warlord of Blood, the only monster to have made multiple appearences in the games was Diablo himself, and he has a different host body each time.
