I think it would be cool to have some human enemies that gave themselves to Hell for the promise of immortality and greater power. These enemies might have weird growths coming out of them, extra heads, arms, spikes etc.
It would be nice to see a good 20+ models of them (so not just the same one over and over). They might be like mini bosses or lead a pack of other monsters.
Naturally they would wear human armour, and would be extremely bulky and really tough.
I like this idea and I think it would be cool to have since each place you visit would most likely be engulfed by the demon shadow, some humans could naturally side with the demons and gain some special powers.
On a side note, were the Travincal Council Members humans that were turned, or mages of some sort? My mind is fuzzy since it has been years since I have played D2.

The Council Members of Travincal were a priestly order of Zakarum. They were transformed by the shards of Mephisto's soulstone that got jammed in to each of them (yes, Mephisto's own stone is only the largest fragment of the shards)- by the demonic power of Mephisto's essence.

um source please... ?
lmao i dont remember that at all
Quote from "Kenzai" »
Isnt it basically the same as the council members what you mean Num3n?
Also, those cultists in the D3 trailer who turn into demons themselves or create smaler demons are also kinda mortals that have gone the way of the dark side for the promise of greater power, but i see thats not what you mean.
Good idea i think. The examples you gave are OK.
they are ok? how could they get any more awesome looking?
Well like everyone said this is already in D2 sorata :P....cool idea tho none the less...we will surely see more of this type of thing in the D3 story I hopes
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.
Supporting big shoulderpads and flashy armor since 2004.
I don't really need to, you can just google it, or go to Solomir's site, or look in a Diablo manual But if I have to:
Bestiary notes:
Council Member
The leaders of the Zakarum have been irrevocably turned to serve Mephisto, the Lord of Hatred. Once faithful and generous leaders of their people, the ruling members of the High Council have been twisted in form and spirit and now take their followers down a darker path. Ruling from the shadows and speaking only through ensorcelled priests, these corrupted holy men abuse their positions and misguide the faithful into attacking those who follow the Light. Their betrayal to their people does not go 'unrewarded' by Mephisto, however, as they have been granted abilities far beyond those of their mortal followers.
More regarding Travincal:
Hartli: Mephisto, along with Baal, was originally captured in the desert near Lut Gholein. But imprisoning two of the Brothers together was far too dangerous. The Horadrim built the Guardian Tower to hold Mephisto. When Zakarum came to power in this land, it took over the Temple City without paying any heed to what was locked within the Tower. And it became their doom.
And finally, the token I've been looking for:
Khalim was a High Priest of Zakarum like Toorc and the others, and it was presumably them who dismembered him and scattered his bits and pieces across Kurast for his non-compliance with Mephisto's will. Mephisto's soulstone was broken into 7 pieces and Toorc, Ismail, Geleb, Bremm, Wyand and Maffer each had a shard driven through their left palms. the Que-Hegan had the 7th and largest shard driven through his left palm, and it was he who was possessed by Mephisto.
but anyways you guys dont really understand what i wanted. i dont want a generic unit i want some minor boss characters each being quite unique, leading a pack of demons. Perhaps on the charge to attack you he might yell something about joining hell... etc
not just hundreds of generic death knights or council members that look exactly the same

Hi, I'm new to these forums, been reading them for over a week now. I managed to capitalize the H in my name by accident, disregard that. Anyways... I really don't think half of you understood what he was going for.
The council members were not turned of their own free will, they discovered Mephisto and he forced them to serve him and corrupted them. What Num3n is saying is that it would be cool if there were some like named dudes who upon Hell's invasion decided they would trade their mortal lives for power. Basically men who may have been evil in the first place on Sanctuary and saw the time of Hell's invasion as the perfect time to give in to their darker side. So in exchange for their soul to Diablo or whoever, they're granted demonic power and their body's are "enhanced" or w/e you want to call it.
It'd be like say we're running around the sanctuary and all of a sudden we come up on a red skinned 13 foot tall fire breathing version of Charsi, only to find out it really is Charsi, and she gave up her soul to Diablo so she could throw hammers of fire and command an army of minions. Ya know, something badA like that. Not that Charsi is secretly evil or something, just saying for example's sake.
Anyways... I like the idea, it'd be cool to see some turned humans as smaller commanders or sub-bosses instead of it always being straight up demons like we always see. Would be strange to see someone who willingly went to Hell for pure power.

And conveniently enough, there are six named council members (excluding Bartuc in Act V), leaving the seventh shard for Mephisto.
