== Diablo III Character ==
Tyrael has been seen in a lot on concept art and on the official webpage for [[Diablo III]]. He is very likely to end up as an [[NPC]] in the game in some form. There have been debates as to his motives and whether he will be good or evil. Players will have to wait and see.
===Diablo 3 Theories===Many players believe that Tyrael will be central to the plot of Diablo 3. They speculate that he will suffer the repercussions of destroying the Worldstone, and has been cast out of the heavens at some point during the 20 years following the destruction of the Worldstone. Tyrael could potentially be corrupted and an enemy in the next game [http://forums.diii.net/showthread.php?t=669472]. These claims can be evidenced by images of Tyraels' wings appearing smoky[http://diablo3x.com/diablo-3-website-tyrael-is-turning-evil]. Finally, during a Q&A session a Blizzard Representative said the following in an answer to a question on The High Heavens and Tyrael:
<blockquote> "We are not going to reveal any details about that but I can say we do address a lot of the issues that you’re talking about. I can extrapolate that the high heavens aren’t very pleased about his actions. I probably shouldn’t say any more." [http://www.diii.net/blog/comments/diablo-3-open-qa-full-transcript1/] </blockquote> ===Act 1===
Tyrael is a key character throughout Diablo 3. The game begins with [[Deckard Cain]] and [[Leah]] discussing the end of days until suddenly something falls from the heavens crashing through the building. After the Hero rescues Cain, he address the "Fallen Star" which has crashed through [[Tristram Cathedral]] into the depths of the Horadric tunnels beneath. The "Fallen Star" turns out to be a man - referred to as "The Stranger" who has no memories of how he came to be there. The majority of act 1 is about reuniting "The Stranger" with his sword which Cain suggests will recover his memories. At the end of act one "The Stranger" is reunited with his sword [[El'druin]] and revealed to be Tyrael.
As ===Tyreal's Sacrifice === It is then revealed that Tyrael, knowing of the on-coming attack on man from [[Belial]] and [[Azmodan]] addressed [[Imperius]] hoping that he would help man in the oncoming attack. Imperius having learnt about Tyrael's previous interference in [[Sanctuary]] ends up fighting Tyrael. The fight comes to an end when Tyrael states that if Heaven refuses to intervene he will leave their ranks and do so himself. Thus Tyrael becomes mortal and falls from the heavens into Tristram Cathedral. === Act 2 & 3 === After the hero helps Tyrael gain his whereaboutsmemory and power, Blizzard statesTyrael mourns for the death of Deckard Cain with Leah. He then advises the group to head to [[Caldeum]] where Belial is known to be. After Tryael helps the group trap Belial in the [[Black Soulstone]] Leah has a vision of Azmodan's armies coming out of the [[Arreat Crater]]. Tyrael then proceeds to help the group in defeating Azmodan and trapping his soul within the soulstone. After Belial and Azmodan are trapped within the [[Black Soulstone]], "He hasn[[Adria]] betrays the group and unleashes the power of the Black Soulstone onto Leah destroying Leah's soul and realising [[Diablo]]. Diablo then proceeds to the high heavens. === Tyrael's Despair === During Diablo't been seen by any s assault on the high heavens in act 4 Tyrael turns to despair, leaving the Hero to strike Diablo down. === End of Act 4 === At the end of Diablo 3 Tyrael rejoins the Angiris Council but as a mortal since - as the destruction aspect of Wisdom. He vows that the Worldstone."Heavens and Sanctuary would stand together
