History
The Sin War
Chronologically, Diablo first appeared in the Sin War trilogy, which details the ancient conflict on the world of Sanctuary. Posing as Dialon, the Spirit of Determintaion, Diablo secretly led a group of religious fanatics in attempt to establish control over the realm. After the plan failed, the Archangel Tyrael created the Soulstones and charged the Horadric Order with the imprisonment of the Prime Evils. Diablo's favored servant or pet is the spider Astrogha.
Diablo
The first encounter with Diablo occurs after a lone hero journeys deep beneath Tristram's Cathedral in search of a demonic presence plagueing the countryside. Diablo had nearly possessed the former ruler of Khanduras, King Leoric. Finding the king too strong willed to dominate completely, Diablo instead possessed his son, Prince Albrecht. The hero takes a portal directly to Hell in order to confront Diablo directly, ultimately defeating him. The misguided hero drove Diablo's soulstone into his own forehead, hoping to contain the demon himself.
Diablo II
The opening cinematic of Diablo II introduces us to the Dark Wanderer, the warrior who defeated Diablo underneath Tristram and is now pursued by a group of heroes. The Wanderer travels the countryside, unleashing demons and horrors in his wake as he is slowly possessed by Diablo. Surrendering control to the demon within, the Wanderer frees Baal and Mephisto, eventually traveling to Hell where he completes the transformation into his true demonic form. He is once again followed to Hell, where the pursuing heroes unlock five seals to summon him in his Chaos Sanctuary. After defeating Diablo the heroes destroy his soulstone, banishing him from Sanctuary back to the Burning Hells.
Diablo III
Aside from a brief appearance in the cinematic trailer, not much is known about Diablo's role in the upcoming sequel. He seems to have some impact, however, since there are items such as Teeth of Diablo used by Cultists.
