Cain's Background
==Cain's Background==
[[File:Npc-leah-cain1.jpg|frame|Cain seen with [[Leah]] in the [[Caravan]]: August, 2010.]]
Cain is the last in a long line of the [[Horadrim]] brotherhood, and he was told the stories of the brave Horadrim by his mother [http://www.diablowiki.net/Deckard_Cain%27s_Journal]. He is not a warrior mage, but is more of an [[archivist]] and loremaster, who does what he can to fight against evil by sharing the knowledge he's accumulated over a lifetime of researching the [[demon]]s that menace the lands of [[Sanctuary]]. He was inspired to study these topics as his mother inspired him with stories of his Horadrim ancestor [[Jered Cain]].
20 years later, Cain is a lot older, reaching towards the end of his life. One of the things that has plagued him all these years is that growing up, he was never much of a believer in the Horadric Order which was kind of handed down to him. It wasn't really until the events of the original Diablo that he came to realize this was all true, a serious threat. Throughout the original Diablo and Diablo 2, he re-familiarized himself with what he grew up with. He's spent the last 20 years trying to atone, he's always felt that if he had been more active earlier on, maybe he could have stopped it, maybe he could have prevented all this from happening. So that's what he's spent this time trying to do, trying to figure out how he can put an end to all of this and stop it once and for all. His urgency has become even stronger, because he knows he's reaching the end of his life. So it's made him fanatical, a little bit, a darker character.[http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/101/1017305p2.html]
