===Spells and Abilities==Fallen Varieties=* None''No spells The only Fallen seen so far in screenshots are known for the red-skinned "regularFallen" type. There were four types of Fallen found in Diablo I and Diablo II: Fallen (, Carvers, Devilkin, and Dark Ones. A fifth type, the Warped One, was added as opposed to a Guest Monster in the [[Fallen Shaman]])D2X, v1.10 patch. It's not known if all, or any, but of these subtypes will return in Diablo 3 might bring surprisesIII.It does seem likely that we''ll see subtypes, since the other monsters so far revealed in D3 are slotted into the same organizational system that was used in earlier games in the series.
===Known Diablo III Fallen Types=Lore==* From the official bestiary page. [[Fallen]]* [[Fallen Shaman]]''[[Diablo 3]] might bring even more types of fallenhttp://www. We'll wait and seeblizzard. The two above are not even confirmedcom/diablo3/world/bestiary/thefallen.''xml]
<blockquote>'''Fallen Ones (Nanus Improbus)
<br><br>
As hard as it is to believe, the fallen ones were once exalted demons of the Burning Hells. They served as Azmodan's hands, performing acts that he would not, could not involve himself in. They were the instrument of Azmodan's first failed attempt to usurp power from Diablo and his brothers, and after that failure, the fallen were subjected to the full wrath of Diablo. They were twisted into small, ridiculous imps, in contrast to their previously powerful forms. Moreover, if they expected Azmodan to reverse their condition, they were sadly mistaken. The infuriated Azmodan held them responsible for the Prime Evils' continued reign, and so he left the fallen in their new bodies, where their degradation would serve to amuse him for all eternity. Their failure provided him with the information he required to succeed in dethroning Diablo and his brothers - the event now known as the "Dark Exile" - but that fact did nothing to soften his heart toward the fallen.
<br><br>
When unleashed upon our realm by their master, Azmodan, these impish terrors display a tendency to swarm like flesh-hungry locusts, and they have been known to tear apart a sleeping village in minutes. Small of stature and simian in appearance, these creatures possess surprising strength and unnatural agility. Other than feasting on human flesh, the only act that gives these unspeakable horrors pleasure is breeding; hence the tendency to encounter them in large packs.
<br><br>
However, due to their small size, cowardice appears to be one of the chief features of this species. They quickly retreat when one of their brethren falls in battle.
<br><br>
Fallen ones display no obvious tendency towards greater organization beyond their predisposition to swarm. This is fortunate for humanity, for they are so numerous that if they were to band together in large numbers, they might easily overwhelm a small city.

===Known Subtypes==Pre-Confirmation Hints=* [[FallenImage:Mon-fallen-shaman-bashiok.gif|left|100px]] (*)* Prior to the official announcement of the return of the Fallen, their return was hinted at by the forum icon of Diablo III Community Manager [[CarverBashiok]] (*)* , which featured an early animated render of the Fallen Shaman. There were also some hints to be found in the [[DevilkinWritings_of_Abd_al-Hazir:_Entry_no._0017|The Writings of Abd Al Hazir]] (*)* [[Dark One]] (*)* [[Warped One]] (*)''(*) Unconfirmed''.
===Famous Fallen==History=* {{iw|Bishibosh Bishibosh}}* {{iw|Rakanishu Rakanishu}}* {{iw|Colenzo_the_Annihilator Colenzo Fallen have featured in both previous games in the Annihilator}}* {{iw|Snotspill Snotspill}}Diablo series.
==Diablo I==
Fallen debuted in Diablo I. See their page in the {{iw|Fallen_One Diablo I Wiki}} for more details. In that game they were simple little enemies, memorable chiefly for their annoying AI and swarming behavior.
==BackgroundDiablo II History==(Background from the The {{iw|Fallen Diablo II Fallen}}) These [[demonic]] imps have of late become are very common throughout similar to the woodlands of the [[Western Kingdoms]]first game's little demons. Small They are slightly different in that they wear more clothes, and vicious, many worry that if these beings were to band together in large numbersuse a wider variety of tools, but they might easily overthrow some of all have the smaller cities in the region. Luckilysame basic behaviour, which is milling about, cowardice appears to be one of attacking the chief features of this species, player and running away if they quickly retreat at the sight of one of their brethren falling in battlesee a friend get killed. Although Fallen seek to congregate togetherThey no longer use "War Cry Mode", so far only small encampments but they have been found, with no obvious overall organization. While there are wild rumours of [[{{iw|Fallen_Shaman Diablo II Fallen Shaman]] Priests leading camps of Fallen, supposedly Shamans}} that can resurrect them with the power to raise them from the dead, this has yet to be substantiated. Carvers and Dark Ones, tougher cousins a little waving of the Fallen, have also been seen closer to the fringes of civilization, indicating that the [[Prime Evils|Brothers]]' sway may be stronger than previously understoodtheir staves.
Blizzard also introduced the Fallen personalities, {{iw|Bishibosh Bishibosh}}, {{iw|Rakanishu Rakanishu}} and {{iw|Colenzo_the_Annihilator Colenzo the Annihilator}}, implying a sort of somewhat sophisticated culture.
==Diablo I MonsterII Lore==The Quoted from the {{iw|Fallen_One Fallen Diablo I II Fallen Ones}} are quite simple little enemies. They have two modes: Retreat Mode and War Cry Mode to make them interesting as enemies. The first one is the signature move that they keep in [[Diablo II]] which entails running away from danger if they see a fellow Fallen One die. The second one is unique to [[Diablo I]], and is a war cry that buffs themselves and other Fallen Ones around themlore.)
==SuperUnique Fallen==
There were several memorable SuperUnique fallen heroes found in Diablo II. It's unknown if any of these will return in D3, or if the Fallen heroes we do see will pay some sort of homage to their predecessors. The following links point to the appropriate SuperUnique pages in the D2 wiki.
