Changes

Inarius together with other rogue angels [[angel]]s and demons [[demon]]s created [[Sanctuary ]] and the [[Nephalem ]] (angel and demon hybrids with great power). However the development of the Nephalem's powers infuriated Inarius, making him want to start anew by eradicating all the Nephalem. However this brought him into a conflict with Mephisto's daughter (and his romantic partner) [[Lilith]]. This conflict resulted in the banishment of [[Lilith]] and the creation of the worldstone[[Worldstone]]. <br><br> Inarius used the worldstone to prevent the Nephalem from developing their powers, reducing each succeeding generation's power until they became normal humans of Sanctuary. Inarius also used the worldstone to hide the existance existence of Sanctuary from the [[High Heavens]].<br><br> He later created the religion [[Cathedral of Light]] to make the beings of Sanctuary worship and serve him. Inarius is also know as the [[Prophet]] of the Cathedral of Light. He's also a former member of the [[Angiris Council]]. Inarius has a son with Lilith named [[Rathma]] whom is the predecessor of [[Necromancer]]s and a follower of balance. Rathma works closley with [[Trang-Oul]] to keep the balance of Sanctuary.<br><br>

He later created the religion Cathedral of Light to make the beings of Sanctuary worship and serve him. Inarius is also know as the Prophet of the Cathedral of Light. He's also a former member of the Angiris Council. Inarius has a son with Lilith named [[Rathma]] whom is the predecessor of [[Necromancer]]s and a follower of balance. Rathma works closley with Trang-Oul to keep the balance of Sanctuary. Inarius was punished by the angiris Angiris council and was given as a gift to [[Mephisto]] for his wrongdoings.

This was formerly the background for Inarius, found in the [[Diablo I Game Manual]], under the Overlords section: ::''Angel Inarius, was proud of his beauty and boasted loudly of his purity and worth. His thoughts became so clouded that he believed himself to be above both Angel and Demon, and he left the High Heavens to form his own dominion. He constructed a great cathedral of mirrored glass and crystal, and followers flocked to him, drawn by his numinous charm and wealth. Once Inarius had gathered a seizable army, he decided to prove his power.<br><br>''

::''Mephisto himself is said to have appeared at the cathedral of Inarius first . He laid siege to an infernal temple devoted waste to the worship church and the surrounding countryside. The Lord of Mephisto, but made Hatred took the foolish mistake of overestimating proud archangel and his prowessfollowers captive.

To this was an insult that they could not bearday, 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. His misguided followers now serve as Hell's taskmasters, taking the anguish of their lost glory out upon the bodies of others.<br><br>''
