Tarage: My god get some facts straight

'''Marius''' was a drifter who witnessed the horrors of [[Tristam]]. He follows the [[Dark Wanderer]] after the destruction of the bar he was hiding in. He then becomes a companion to the [[Wanderer]]. His sanity is questionable, as well as his courage, as he is tricked by [[Baal]] into removing his [[soulstone]] and then is unable to though the infernal gate in [[Kurast]] to go to [[Hell]] to destroy [[Baal]]'s [[soulstone]] at the [[Hellforge]].<br>
Many years later, [[Baal]] visits Marius, now an old man, in human form in his cell in a mental asylum. He then narrates the events of [[Diablo II]] to [[Baal]], who he mistakes for [[Tyrael]]. In the end, he confesses to [[Tyrael]] that he did not destroy the [[soulstone]] and gives it to [[Baal]] for destroying it at the [[Hellforge]]. [[Baal]] then reveals himself and kills Marius, destroying the asylum in the process.
