The five purest angels among them represent the five most beautiful qualities, and Imperius represents courage. , Yser who represents destiny, Tyrael who represents justice, Auriel who represents hope, and Malthael who represents wisdom (yes, he is the final character in the expansion pack of "Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls" BOSS).

Tasamet's body turned into hell, her scales turned into demons, and the seven dragon heads turned into the three demons of hell: Mephisto , the king of hatred, Diavolo, the king of fear, and Baal, the king of destruction; and the four demon kings: Sin. King Azmodan , King of Wrath Andariel , King of Lies Belial , King of Pain Duriel .

Because the power of the World Stone is so powerful, angels and demons began a protracted battle for the World Stone: the Eternal War .
The eternal war has made some angels and demons hate war.
In a war, the high-ranking angel Inarius, a subordinate of Tyrael, the angel of justice, was captured by Lilith, the daughter of Mephisto, the king of hatred.
Both tired of the war, they teamed up to steal the Worldstone and created a place surrounded by a magical barrier: Sanctuary .
The union of the two gave birth to the first generation of humans: the Nephalem .
Nephalem combine the power of angels and demons, so they are the most powerful existence in the game world.
Although Sanctuary has temporarily gained peace, the demons and angels in Sanctuary kill the humans in Sanctuary because they fear the power of humans. As the mother of the Nephalem, Lilith killed all the demons and angels in Sanctuary in order to protect her children, leaving only her lover Inaris. Inarius chose to exile Lilith, who had slaughtered all the demons and angels in Sanctuary, and weakened the power of the Nephalem.
