Actually Diablo came to Sanctuary during the Sin War without a vessel or soulstone. The whole reason for the soulstones was to capture the prime evils because they had no vessel.
I've been just checking out the Boss Artworks and i was wondering where are thousand pounder and the siegebreaker beast from the 2008 barbarian and wd gameplay. Are they not bosses in the final version?
Neither were planned to be bosses. I bet they're still around.
Seems very possible. That is assuming he is in the pit though. As you can see we free him from "Cells of the Condemned" it seems like at some point. So finding him in the crater wouldn't make a whole lot of sense. Who knows.
Incidentally, this same character apparently appears later in game, and he wears golden armor, and is named Tyrael. Food for thought.
There is no NPC named Tyrael in the data files right now he's only referred to as Bridle. And portraits are not named. I'm gonna upload the portrait files and show everyone how they look. So many people think they're named. They aren't. Fansites slap names on them as guesses.
The Strings related to Diablo also support Dauroth's Theory:
Diablo_CurseOfAnguish_name Curse Of Anguish
Diablo_CurseOfDestruction_name Curse Of Destruction
Diablo_CurseOfHate_name Curse Of Hate
Diablo_CurseOfPain_name Curse Of Pain
Just Wondering why there is no "curse of lies" or "curse of sin". Maybe everything won't go like Diablo planned.
I had been looking for those! Couldn't find them again. I'll add them to the opening post too.
I thought of it but yeah the new lore story says they're the heads, but it may be talking about a black abyss that spawned Tathamet. We just know Anu cast out his evil, we don't know exactly where and when Tathamet formed.

Now where did it say he was corrupted? Bad yes, but under the influence of Hell? Then again the Black Soulstone seems to be related to him, and if we go with the theory that Diablo hid it somewhere, that doesn't leave room for any other assumption.
Right corruption is always a weird term. I didn't necessarily mean he was... influenced directly by them he pretty much gave in from what I heard.
@Dauroth you know thats a damn good point. Andariel's feminine aspects. Also there are parts reminiscent of other evils. I think he has blades on his forearms sort of like Duriel?
Zoltun Kulle was corrupted very fast, he's centuries old. He was a horadric mage along with Tal'Rasha and Jared Cain that gave into the Prime Evils pretty quickly. He became immortal eventually and they had to cut his head off and bury it under the sand, then send his body to another dimension to keep him from coming back.

Thanks!
No, not unless they redesigned him almost completely. His model his here.

Fetlock is Azmodan's codename so Act 3 I guess.

Oh I did. It's the last one. Defeat Zoltun Kulle. Act 2.
Anyways yeah it could be forced on her, but I can guarantee Cain won't be evil, that's so cliche.
