Diablo – What are the names of the lore heroes

diablo-3

In the lore of Diablo-3 you can see that the heroes have a specific background, with own lore and reason to enter this journey to kill evil, get revenge, etc.

those are.

  • The female Demon Hunter.

The female Demon Hunter in Diablo III fled from her village as a child
during a demonic invasion. She was the only survivor. After days, she
was found by a Demon Hunter and was taken in as a member. Since every
Demon Hunter has a story like this, it is possible that the background
for the male character will be similar.

  • The female Wizard.

This 19 year old female wizard was sent to the Zann Esu mage clan, but
later handed over to the powerful Vizjerei since she was a "rude and
uncooperative student," that the smaller mage clan could not control.
They hoped the harsh discipline at Vizjerei "would break her anarchic
spirit." Yet even the Vizjerei instructors were unable to rein her in.
She was continually being caught seeking out dangerous and forbidden
magics without care for herself or anyone around her.

  • The male Monk.

The monk serves the Elder Monks of the monastery, who seek to destroy
evil in all forms. He thinks of himself as the weapon of the gods
against all that is evil. He is a peaceful, patient and good man who
aids those who suffer, with no hatred against anyone, in contrast to
the Barbarian. He is adept in Martial Arts, being able to defeat
multiple foes without the aid of weapons.

  • The male Barbarian.

This is actually the same individual from Diablo 2. He's aged twenty
years, and he's got a personality in this game. Look at his gear; his
[[armor]] has points on which he could impale himself. It's extra
protection for the harsh environment, but it's also dangerous to him.
The day to day life characters lead in this world is very hard.

  • The male Witch Doctor.

The fearsome Witch Doctor of the umbaru is believed to be a legend by
many, but Abd al-Hazir has seen them with his own eyes, documented in
the thirteenth entry of his writings.

The second most sacred belief of the tribes is their philosophy of
self-sacrifice and non-individuality, of suppressing one's
self-interest for the good of the tribe. Their most current war
created an intense social upheaval among the tribes due to an
incident, of which details are lacking, but might be the reason the
Witch Doctor has traveled west to Tristram.

But in no place (neither game or web) I found the real names of those amazing heroes. Did I miss some lore in-game where they talk about it? or you must be nameless to fight against the evil?

Best Answer

Here's what I've compiled, based on the Diablo lore and the Heroes of the Storm character backstories.

  • Female Demon Hunter: Valla

    • Diablo III: Hatred and Discipline, Demon Hunter short story

      Valla went on, "It was a good dream... but for now it must remain just that—a dream."

      The sawyer's daughter pulled her hood up. "I'm back. I'm back, and I'm ready... to continue the hunt."

      She turned away.

      "Where do you think you're going?" Josen asked flatly.

      "Tristram. The others asked you to send the best. I am the best. I'm going, and you have less than a few heartbeats to try and stop me."

      Valla waited with her back to the master hunter, then lifted her scarf... An instant later she strode away, crested a rise, and was gone from sight.

    • Heroes of the Storm: Valla, Demon Hunter

      Valla witnessed the ferocity of the hellspawn firsthand as the demons ravaged her village and left her for dead. Now, with no people to call her own, her only allegiance is to her cause: to rid Sanctuary of the demonic filth corrupting its lands.

  • Male Witch Doctor: Nazeebo

    • Not named in Diablo III, however the character background in Heroes of the Storm is consistent with that of the heretical Witch Doctor encountered by Benu in the Doubtwalker short story.

      You stray far from the truth. What is true is this: the Unformed Land is not as the high priests teach. The one you call heretic knew this. That is why he defied law.

      Images swirled and flashed before Benu like smoke and lightning. He glimpsed the so-called heretic wandering through strange lands the young witch doctor did not know. A falling star blazed in the night sky, and Benu followed it to where it crashed on the earth—a small town beset by evil.

    • Heroes of the Storm: Nazeebo, Heretic Witch Doctor

      With cabalistic incantations and vestments of feather and bone, the Witch Doctor Nazeebo calls upon spirits from the Unformed Land to aid him in battle. Few outlanders ever encounter a Witch Doctor in the flesh, without losing their own.

  • Female Barbarian: Sonya

    • Not named in Diablo III, however the character background in Heroes of the Storm seems consistent with that revealed in the game.

    • Heroes of the Storm: Sonya, Wandering Barbarian

      From the frozen Dreadlands of the north come the mighty Barbarian warriors. After surviving the destruction of her home and death of her tribe, Sonya wanders Sanctuary in search of battle and a better life for her people.

  • Male Barbarian: Kehr Odwyll (questionable)

    • The Diablo III Barbarian short story Wayfarer names the protagonist, but notes that he lacks the beard and long hair typical of Barbarian warriors. Either Kehr is not the same Barbarian in the game, or some time has passed and he has grown more hair.

      The peasant took a few quick steps ahead, trying to catch Kehr's eye. "I doubted at first. You lack the wild beard and locks mentioned in the tales..."

      He cleared his throat.

      "If you do not want to speak, I understand. I wanted only to thank you."

      Tilting his head in a bow, he let the barbarian stride past.

  • Female Wizard: Li-Ming

    • Diablo III: Firefly, Wizard short story

      But understand this: Li-Ming did not lie. There are tomes within our library that describe the events that may now be coming to pass. It all begins with a star falling from the heavens, and such a star did fall the day I fought Li-Ming.

      I know the true nature of magic and of who and what I am. Li-Ming knows these things as well, but she has come to a different course. This is the puzzle put before us, assassin. I am not blind to the evil that stalks us, but I fear for what Li-Ming might seek to undertake. Thus I consign to death my brightest student, perhaps the world's best hope for salvation, and pray that I have chosen rightly.

    • Heroes of the Storm: Li-Ming, Rebellious Wizard

      It’s a generally agreed upon fact of life among the denizens of Sanctuary that wizards and magical mayhem are never far apart. Although she understands people’s concerns, Li-Ming is entirely unapologetic for the destruction in her wake. She delights in unleashing devastating spells on her foes from afar, then teleporting away to frustrate her enemies’ attempts at striking back. Small minds may fear this kind of power, but Li-Ming wields the arcane forces of the universe with confidence and unmatched skill.
