Add this section if you can discuss Tyrael is seen in three places in [[Diablo I or II ]]. The first is at the end of Act Two, when he greets the player from the island where Baal/Tal Rasha had been imprisoned. The second meeting comes in the [[Pandemonium Fortress]], the town of Act Four, where Tyrael interacts with characters like any other [[NPC ]], though of course he's a bit less chatty. He is not a merchant, but he can resurrect dead [[follower|mercs]], for the usual price. What Tyrael does with the [[gold]] is an eternal question and running joke for many players. The third sighting of Tyrael comes at the end of Act Five, when he descends from above after [[Baal]]'s defeat in the Worldstone Chamber. After a speech in which he asserts that Baal has poisoned the [[Worldstone]] and that it will no longer function to keep most of the same name/typeforces of [[High Heavens|Heaven]] and [[Burning Hells|Hell]] from flooding into the mortal world, Tyrael creates a portal for the human heroes to leave. Link After their departure, Tyrael hurls his sword into the Worldstone, causing it to D2W as well as other D3W articles as neededshatter into countless millions of pieces, and its this explosion and apparent doom for humanity that fills the final cinematic of Diablo II.--> ===Tyrael Dialogues===* '''[[Tyrael dialogues]]'''

==Background==
Tyrael was the one who provided the [[Horadrim]] with the [[soulstone]]s they used to imprison [[Diablo]], [[Mephisto]], and [[Baal]] with centuries before the time covered in [[Diablo I]] and [[Diablo II]], and he has appeared to humans in many other times and locations, always (appearing?) to assist the humans in the fight against the demonic forces. Amongst players there is must speculation as to Tyrael's real agenda, but in the game all of the [[NPCs]] seem to hold him in the highest esteem.
Tyrael was captured by [[Baal]] after he failed to stop [[Diablo]] from releasing Baal but was eventually freed by the adventurers of [[Diablo II]]. He returned to the adventurers in the {{wl|Pandemonium Fortress}}, the last bastion before [[Hell]], to offer some assistance.
At the end of [[Diablo 2]], when it was clear that [[Baal]] had permanently corrupted the [[Worldstone]], Tyrael decided that the only thing he could do to protect [[Sanctuary]] was to destroy the sacred relic. The destruction left [[Mount Arreat]] as nothing more than a crater, and dealt a devastating blow to the [[Barbarian]] tribes, who saw it as their life duty to protect the Worldstone. {{iw|Anya Anya}} however considers this strange and tells us in her valediction that this action was never foreseen in the prophecies.
