+'''Inarius''' was an [[Archangel]] of the [[High Heavens]], once part of the [[Angiris Council]], and one of the creators of [[Sanctuary]].
 Inarius and [[Lilith]] were lovers, but now they hate each other.
-They seem to have 'created' humans by means of some kind of partnership, because different [[Nephalem]] have different parents. [[Rathma]] was born of Inarius and [[Lilith]], while [[Bul-Kathos]] is said to be born of a different pair of [[Angel]] and [[Demon]]. It is said that they don't have sex like humans do though, so we aren't sure how they 'mated' exactly.
 The [[Nephalem]], being born of both [[Angel]] and [[Demon]], were found to be quite powerful. [[Lilith]] planned to use their power to build an army, but Inarius fought against her and used the [[Worldstone]] to diminish the humans' powers, so that each successive generation became less and less powerful. He wanted control over them, not anyone else.
-However, [[Lilith]] awoke [[Uldyssians]] powers, but he turned against both Inarius and [[Lilith]]. Inarius fought [[Uldyssian]], but [[Uldyssian]] ultimately won. Inarius was captured by the [[Angiris Council]], who made a deal with [[Mephisto]], where [[Mephisto]] agreed to leave [[Sanctuary]] alone if he could have Inarius to do as he pleases with him. [[Mephisto]] took Inarius back down to Hell to torture him. [[Mephisto]] has a special Hatred for Inarius.
+Sanctuary was created as an escape from the Great Conflict, where it would be a paradise for the Angels and Demons to rest peacefully. So as not to draw attention to himself and Sanctuary from the High Heavens, Inarius disguised himself as [[The Prophet]], leader of the [[Cathedral of Light]]. When Inarius is connected to the Worldstone, he is the most powerful being on [[Sanctuary]].
-''He bound Inarius with tremendous chains and slowly tore the wings from the back of the angel. Great barbed hooks were then used to stretch out the once glowing skin and his features were distorted by vile powers. Many of the followers of Inarius were given as gifts to [[Baal]] and [[Diablo]], but the rest were molded to match the bloated image of the now crippled angel. To this day, Inarius is said to be trapped in [[Hell]] within a chamber of mirrors, his eyelids torn from his face as he is forced to gaze upon his misshapen form for all eternity.

 Note: The Sin War is officially regarded as the most canonical, so the true nature of the [[Overlords]] is yet to be sorted out. But we can definitely say that [[Mephisto]] tortured Inarius.
 Due to the memory wiping at the end of the [[Sin War Trilogy]], later generations attribute the defeat of Inarius to [[Mephisto]] as retribution to the destruction of the [[Triune]], which is in turn attributed to Inarius. Expanded role in books
