people keep saying this, and i dont think i truly understand what an MMO implies. i mean the acronym just means massively multiplayer online right?...so isnt that just was diablo 2 was original just everyone on a bigger server?

The old Old Norse word Hel derives from Proto-Germanic * khalija, which means "one who covers up or hides something", which itself derives from Proto-Indo-Europeankel-, meaning "conceal". The term may have later spawned the English word Hell. Related terms are Old Frisianhelle, GermanHölle and Gothichalja. Norwegian and Swedishhelvete "hell" come from Old Norse helviti, hel (the location) + viti "punishment".
The name Akilae is likely derived from the Latin word Aquila, which means "eagle".
So hel is just conceal...
Well then what's the rune from WoW, I wouldn't be suprised if it was an actual symbol from something.
I did also notice that was the hel rune right away...Im just wondering why they would choose that one with so many to choose from. Anyone think this has any significance?
Everyones gone to posting their pictures and talking about worthless shit now.

Some more information i found about the protoss rune...I was reading through the old starcraft manaul (yes i still have it) and the symbol represents the Akilae tribe. They are the templar caste, and their tribal color is green. The symbol shown in the old manual is the exact symbol posted on this thread. Pretty neat they stuck to it after all these years (1998)
Akilae means Eagle. hel means to conceal. a sealed eagle? so what does the frostmourne rune mean?

I am convinced that the new game to be announced is going to be a Wii-only DIABLO game using Mii avatars.
=P and guess who came to make it gayer!

Anyway. They probably chose the hel rune because of it's origins to conceal.
and the poster looks like it's right off of someones wall or something.
Fuck you, I'm a dragon.
