'''Scripted events''' are brief moments of story or action, viewed almost like a movie within the game. These usually show monsters or NPCs interacting in unusual ways, and they may be instrumental to the game, or just a moment of eye candy or extra plot info. Most scripted events are part of quests [[quest]]s and missions, and those are not included on this page. These are just described in the ones that stand alone, or if they are quest-affiliated, they're not the core of the questquests themselves.

There were no scripted events in Diablo 2 that weren't part of larger quests, but such things as the character speaking to Izual's ghost after the battle, or the Countess' taunting dialogue are examples of (very simple) scripted events seen in D2. The scripted events are far more intricate and common in Diablo 3 than in previous games in the series.
