I'll be pretty surprised if the end-game boss ends up being anybody other than Imperius. I think Adria will play a role in the expansion, and we will battle her at some point as a mini-boss, but I see a lot of evidence that they have set up Imperius to fall and threaten the peace that is established at the end of the D3 story.
I have some plans for Imperius for later Acts, just havent written the story yet
Very cool read, I really like the plot and the direction you would like the story to go. To add on, what playable characters would you have for the expansion?
One class I've thought about is simply the Horadrum. I would have the Horadrum be highly skilled in dexterity and intelligence through the use of magical weapons. I would take spells and weaponry and combine them into one for this class. I would kind of combine the best of wizard and the monk in this category
I just finished Diablo on Nightmare, and have been speculating what could be in the expansion. Here's a theory and story line for the next Act, Let me know what you think.
Act V: The Race for the Soul Stone
After Diablo was thrown down from the high heavens, his essence has disintegrated and is banished back to hell. The nephalem and Tyrael agree that Adria must be brought to justice for her crime. Now being the Angel of wisdom, Tyrael appoints the nephalem as an interim angel of justice and is appointed with the task of tracking down Adria and punishing her for her crimes against the heavens and humanity. A massive man hunt begins. During the manhunt, it is revealed the Adria is seeking the soul stone, which was cast out of Diablo's body to resurect him in physical form from hell. In the search for Adria, it is revealed during her travels over the past twenty years, Adria has formed a massive coven of witches to whom all serve her evil deeds. She sends down the coven to annhilate Tristam and all it's inhabitants while she searches for the soulstone. Upon the destruction of Deckard Cain's old house, a secret research chamber is revealed. In Cain's secret writings and journal, the location of Adrias mysterious coven is revealed. Cain kept this a secret out of fear that Leah might have went looking for her. The nephalem travels to an ancient forest of mysterious power where Adria is believed to be hiding. Instead of Adria, the nephalem finds the Dark Wanderer in her place, Admitting to being Adria's lover, he vows to destroy the nephalem. After defeating the Dark Wandrer, A letter from Adria is revealed showing where Adria has traveled for the soul stone. The location is revealed to be in a far away jungle. After going through many treacherous creatures, the nephalme finds Adria and the soulstone. She is using the power from within to open a portal from hell and attempt to draw Diablo's Essence out. Adria is successful in drawing Diablo's essence out. Also, in addition to Diablo's essence, two other figures come out of the portal to hell. One of the figures is Leviathan, the demon and gatekeeper to hell. Leviathan is revealed to be second in command to Ba'al. Leviathan is then defeated by the nephalem, who is the boss for Act V. After Leviathans defeat, before Adria can use the soulstone to fully resuurect Diablo, the nephalem strikes the soulstone. Instead of being destroyed, the soul stone is seperated into six fragments, each containign a Lord of Hell. The other figure emerging from the portal, is none other than Leah. A slightly older and more mature women now, she reveals how she spent the equivalent of many hundred years being tormented in the bowels of hell. Seeing a portal to the portal opening to the mortal realm, she takes advantage of it, with Leviathan chasing after her. Attemting to seek vegence upon her mother, Adria once again escapes with the essence of Diablo. The race is now on between the nephalem and Adria to reunite the fragments of the soul stone,
What do you guys think? Should I work on some more Acts? Hope you enjoyed
