Tal Rasha

Solomir:

'''Tal Rasha''' was a powerful Horadric mage who led the campaign for hunting down and capturing the [[Prime Evil]] [[Baal]]. The [[Horadrim]] caught up with Baal near the desert city, [[Lut Gholein]], and although they where eventually able to subdue the demon, the [[Soulstone]] that was meant to imprison him shattered in the process. The remaining shards of the Soulstone still behaved as the original one, but were not big enough to contain the essence of Baal for very long. Realizing that, Tal Rasha theorized that a mortal of strong will should be able to contain Baal within his own soul, dooming that man to wrestle with the demon for all eternity. Tal Rasha volunteered himself for the process, guided by the [[Archangel]] [[Tyrael]], his fellow Horadrim were led to a secret tomb, one of seven tombs located in the [[Canyon of the Magi]], there they had built a great binding stone, and chained their leader to it. After being bound to the stone, the fragment of the Soulstone containing Baal was pierced through the chest of Tal Rasha by the Archangel Tyrael, thus completing the prison.

In [[Diablo II]] the [[Dark Wanderer]] and [[Marius]] find Tal Rasha's tomb. Tyrael stops the Wanderer from reaching Baal, however, Marius ends us removing the stone from Tal Rasha's chest and releases Baal. He is still in possession of Tal Rasha's body allowing him access to all of Tal Rasha's power and knowledge. At the End of Act V, Tal Rasha's body is destroyed.

A Diablo II item set is also named after him, [[Tal Rasha's Wrappings]].

: That's an impressive collection of facts. I think lore fans everywhere would be very happy if you helped out with adding these things to DiabloWiki =) Also, remember to sign your comments ([[Help:Talk]]) --[[User:Leord|Leord]] 14:24, 1 November 2008 (CET)
::Not a lot of experience with Wikis, would have programmed the thing to leave a signature by itself, it should be super easy considering there is a button dedicated for that. Having other people able to edit my work isn't something that I am generally interested in, settling in a Wiki would have made some aspects of my project a lot more easier, but it would have made it much more complicated as a whole. Editing other peoples work is also something I probably wont be able to cope with, lorewise, the universe of Diablo is at a retcon juncture, which from what I was told, could be going until the second novel and even beyond, what is still fact and what is no longer valid remains to be seen. This is certainly not the time to draw conclusions and write entire articles, though of course, the speculation fest is inevitable, if one can not determine things by himself, one can not complement on the work of others. Until the release of Diablo III I would be confined mainly to finish my own project, once its finished, incorporating it within a decent network won't be so difficult.--[[User:Solomir|Solomir]] 22:41, 1 November 2008 (CET)
