Yes he is, I assume that Fiacla-Gear is a firstborn as well since he was a close relative to Bul-Kathos. As to why he was left out by Knaak in the Sin War is imo suspicious as for the future of Druids in the Diablo Universe.
It is stated that it is unclear as to whether Fiacla-Gear was the brother of Bul-Kathos, or just his most trusted friend. If he is his brother then he too would be first born beyond question, if he is a friend then it is prehaps unclear as to the exact date he struck up the friendship with Bul Kathos. It could have been after Bul Kathos united the 12 barbarian tribes and became their king. But It could have just as easily been beofre that date.
As the description of Fiacla-Gear is vague, prehaps that is why Knaak left him out. And instead concertration more on the one of the two there is more information on supplied to him by Blizzard. But as he rewrote portions of the lore anyway I do not see why he couldn't have included the "father" of the druids if he wanted to.
But maybe it is because Blizzard never confirmed Ficla-Gear's linage to Bul Kathos that Knaak left him out.

Various NPCs dialogs tell you that, Charsi says Blood Raven fought the evil under tristram.
And Drognan/Jehren say the summoner was a Vizjerei mage who fought under Tristram.
Thats really cool but....didn't you at one time say that it is unclear as to who the summoner was? And how can that be correct, each character could have killed diablo and inserted the soulstone into their head and become the wanderer. I always felt that he was a wanderer because they didn't want to specify, if they specify it as the warrior who actually killed diablo it would contradict the ending to diablo if you chose another class other than the warrior. I though this out a little because of the summoner thing, i remember a long discussion among these forums about who the summoner was and speculations on who he is.

The wanderer was most certainly the warrior. :confused:
He was a white male and carried a sword.
I know right...but somehow i felt the wanderer was supposed to be the hero of diablo which could be any of those other classes, of course it was the warrior but I dont think they wanted to actually say that it was because it would contradict a completed diablo game with a rogue or other.

I think they put themselves in a position with the storyline they kind of HAD to choose a prevalent adventurer against Diablo as one of them had to have the soulstone for the D2 cinematics.
I think in D3 they will avoid naming one specific hero even more so.

Not me personally, I have stated who the characters from d1 became in D2 for many months if not years.

Yes it does, but in the interest of carrying on the story, it can only be one of them, as the wanderer appeared so prominently in the sequel. And as he was a white male, he must have been to only white male character from the previous game who had a video of him shoving the stone in his head, thus he is the warrior.
It's contradictory, but that's how things go.

Possible, but since Blizzard told us, throughout the sequel what happened to the previous characters, we know who he is. You might have issues with that, if you do I don't blame you, 3 different videos of 3 different people doing the same thing, yet only one of them can truly have done it. But Blizzard wrote the story and they can write it however they want. Or Rewrite as is often the case as well.

Nope no issues, the story is open to change. That is all very true, the story is ongoing and can be changed, it is their story after all, minor changes like that don't BOTHER me per say, i was just curious. Being a stickler about "staying true" isn't important just as it isn't important that 2 face got burned instead of acid to create his character. The story evolves and im ok with it :P.

I know I made a thread on this but I thought maybe I could get a more direct simple answer here, if not then I guess the thread is my best bet. Anyway...
What happened to the shards of all the soulstones? They were all shattered. I mean BEFORE being destroyed on the hellforge. Only pieces of them were destroyed on the forge.

Well since this thread ism't for theorizing, there is no answer for you. We don't know.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

No. The only lesser Evil with any Family members is Andariel. At least that is the case currently.

They did say that they occasionally add or change lore, especially recently. Didn't they say that some where? So it's still possible (not that anyone was denying that in the first place.)
I have a question about the Worldstone. In the 2nd Sin War book, Uldyssian changes it to give the nephelam more power, but it was never reversed even by the end of the 3rd book, so why has the Worldstone being draining their nephelam powers away?
There's no specific explanation but I think that this alteration is somewhat responsible for the creation of the Horadrim and those D2 heroes who can kill all three Prime Evils at once with their bare hands...;)
Still I believe the alteration wasn't absolute, so the Worldstone still prevented the Nephalems' power to fully manifest itself... until it was destroyed that is.
It's the people that follow Uldyssian, the one responsible for saving Sanctuary originally from both angels and demons single handedly.

I think that when Inarius sucked it`s power he altered it, or I may be wrong. Nonetheless I recall for sure that Inarius saw the alteration, it was like a core alteration(the very structure of the elements was changed) not like Inarius or Lilith.
And at the end, Mephisto and the Council make a deal about it but it`s not writen what it is. I assume that they altere it so the nephalem `s powers grow more slowly like before Lilith changed it.
And finaly some1 who thinks like me. Thje heroes in D2(and posibly in D1, or atleast the wanderer) are humans with growing nephalem powers.
Yeah, Uldyssian changed the very essence of the Worldstone, and even Inarius couldn't undo it.
