The Kiss of Mephisto was a powerful, demonic artefact created in order to resurrect fallen Morlu.
Contents
Appearance
The item originally appeared as a giant, black gemstone embedded in a triangular column of red-streaked marble. Due to its deep red complexion, it's also called the Blood Marble.
Background
The Kiss of Mephisto was kept in a cave underneath the temple of the Triune, along with the band of Morlu. The Blood Marble would continuously revive any Morlu who fell as they battled with eternal bloodlust in the cavern. This gave the Morlu continous battle experience, becoming the most elite of demonic soldiers.
For unknown reasons, Lucion despise the stone. It's speculated it might be because it originally was a gift for Auriel, the Archangel.
The artefact was destroyed by Uldyssian, fighting his way through the cavern. With the destruction of the stone, the threat of the Morlu was gone as well.
Appearances
The Kiss of Mephisto only appears in once source, Diablo: The Sin War trilogy, the first two books: Diablo: Birthright and Diablo: The Veiled Prophet.
