==Background==

''Adria''' is the Witch merchant from [http://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Adria Diablo 1]. She sold and bought potions, scrolls and staves. She also recharged staves with their magical charges. She was not in Diablo 2, having fled [[New Tristram| Tristram]] in anticipation of the attack on the village.

Adria is the mother of [[Leah]], who was adopted by [[Deckard Cain]] after Adria's supposed death.

In Diablo 3 the Hero finds out that Leah is Adria's estranged daughter, whose father is later found out to be [[Aidan]]. The Hero along with Leah rescue Adria in act 2 - after which she helps the Hero throughout specific portions of the act as well as teaching Leah to control her "power". Adria helps both Leah and the hero trap [[Belial]]'s and [[Azmodan]]'s soul in the [[Black Soulstone]]. When the hero returns from slaying Azmodan in act 3 Adria unleashes the power of the blackstone upon Leah revealing that as Aidan was possesed by [[Diablo]] when Leah was conceived- Leah is not only Aidan's daughter but also Diablo's. This is revealed to all be part of Diablo's plan.

Leah was to simply act as a form for Diablo's soul to inhabit. Adria then disappears through a portal on Diablo's instruction not to be seen again in the standalone version of Diablo 3.
