===Diablo 3 Theories=History==Many players believe that According to [[Deckard Cain]], Tyrael will be central to the plot "was renowned for being calm and controlled and meticulous in his execution of Diablo 3combat technique. They claim that he will suffer " Tyrael's weapon is the legendary ''El'druin'', the repercussions Sword of destroying the WorldstoneJustice, and has perhaps even been cast out of heaven he was known in the intermittent 20 years since his wings seem to ages before the rise of man as being at all times fair and impartial, as Justice should be smoking[http://diablo3x.com/diablo-3-website-tyrael-is-turning-evil] he may be also be corrupted and an enemy in the next game [http://forums.diii.net/showthread.php?t=669472]. Finally, in a Q&A session a Blizzard Representative said in answer to a question on The High Heavens and Tyrael:

<blockquote> "We are not going ===Pre-''[[Sin War (novels)|Sin War]]''===Though relatively little has been revealed about Tyrael's activities prior to reveal any details about [[Inarius]]'s betrayal and the Sin War, it is known that [[Izual]] once served under the Archangel of Justice as his "most trusted" Lieutenant, but I can say we do address a lot eventually chose to lead "an ill-fated assault upon the fiery [[Hellforge]]", resulting in his capture, torture, forced betrayal of the issues that you’re talking aboutHeaven, and fall from grace. I can extrapolate It seems also evident that Tyrael clashed himself countless times with the forces of Hell, and at some point encountered and likely fought against [[Mephisto]] and [[Diablo]], two of the high heavens aren’t very pleased about his actions. I probably shouldn’t say any more." [http://www[Prime Evils]].diii.net/blog/comments/diablo-3-open-qa-full-transcript1/] </blockquote>

The official website line is that Tyrael has been missing for ===''[[Sin War (novels)|Sin War]]''===Roughly three thousand years before the last 20 yearsdarkening of [[Tristram]] by [[Diablo]], a farmer by the name of [[Uldyssian]] decides to embark on a mission to destroy both the [[Triune]] and nobody has heard anything about himthe [[Cathedral of Light]], his latent powers secretly awakened by the disguised demoness [[Lilith]], managing to first decimate the ranks of the [[Prime Evil]]-founded Triune.

[[ImageFile:Tyreal_bareTyrael.jpggif|left|thumb|600px|]]While Tyraeldoes not appear in person in the first novel of the series, he is mentioned in ''[[Birthright]]'' by his brother, the renegade [[Inarius]], when the latter recalls his time serving as seen on a commander of the official home page. Some fans claim that High Heavens and his wings seem failed efforts to be just smoke, make even Tyrael see "reason" and realize what he saw as if he is being banished from the ultimate futility of the Eternal Conflict. Towards the end of the ''[[Scales of the Serpent]]'', Tyrael, though not mentioned by name, tells [[High HeavensAchilios]]that he has need of him, renders him unconscious, and spirits him away.[[Rathma]], [[Mendeln]] and [[Trag'Oul]]are unable to find any trace of Achilios, and, noting the absence of the Burning Hells' foul touch, realize that "another angel" other than Inarius has taken Achilios, meaning that Sanctuary had been discovered by the High Heavens at long last.

{{clear-left}}<!--===Spells [[Diablo]], when contacting Inarius while hoping to make an "alliance", initially appears in Tyrael's form in an attempt to intimidate him. Later on, the true Tyrael, along with Achilios, appears before [[Serenthia]], claiming that, while he had sought to slay her and Abilities===* NoneUldyssian before, his plans have since changed, and warning her of both Inarius's secret pact with the Lord of Terror, and of his using the Worldstone'{{PAGENAME}}s have no known spells or special abilitiespower to vastly augment his own.Rathma later meets with his father and tries to warn him of Tyrael''s presence, but an arrogant Inarius overrides and banishes him.

ORSerenthia and Achilios find and attack Uldyssian, add spellswhom both genuinely believe, due to Tyrael's manipulations, to be possessed by [[Malic]], only to find that Tyrael has deceived both, for the purpose of maximizing chaos and sending Sanctuary's few remaining capable defenders into disarray in preparation for the coming of the Host. While Tyrael is later surveying the situation from among the clouds, he declares that it is "good", silently noting the potential threat of the angel/abilities with linksdemon spawn, and recalls that though he had briefly contemplated suggesting the use of the mortals as soldiers for Heaven, the thought of fighting alongside any demon-tainted strain made him completely reject such a notion, believing that soon, the "blasphemous creation" of Inarius would be ended.-->

<!--===Known NPC X Types===Describe similar NPCs of When the Host at long last reaches Sanctuary, just as Uldyssian was about to defeat Inarius once and for all, Tyrael intervenes directly to bind Uldyssian in place, telling him to "accept what must be", as outright and devastating war erupts between the type this one four factions, and though Uldyssian manages to break free, Tyrael isgone and only Inarius remains. For exampleUldyssian taps into his full potential and might in order to dispel the forces of both Heaven and Hell, a city guard with sword, halberd or bowbut soon realizes that the raw power he had unleashed was threatening to destroy his entire world.

===Related Characters (This single decision by Tyrael would forever alter both his own nature and Monsters)===* that of both Sin Wars, and from then on, growing endlessly fond of humanity and deeply impressed time and again by its innate potential for greatness, Tyrael began to intervene more and more frequently on mankind's behalf against the [[Deckard CainBurning Hells]]* The , even going as far as acting against the mandates of his fellow Council members in order to protect the race he now cherished most. Ironically, he who once callously manipulated and tried to annihilate humanity would in the following millennia serve as one of humanity's greatest and most devoted allies of all, understanding that perhaps not everything was so easily defined by mere laws after all, and embracing humans not as unnatural abominations, but as valiant and truly great "heroes", as he would call them, for the [[Player characterLight]]s.

<!--==Personality=''[[Diablo (game)|Diablo]]''===Explain After the character[[Dark Exile]], Tyrael was the one responsible for establishing the [[Horadrim]] in order to protect Sanctuary from the [[Prime Evil]]s and the creation of the three [[Soulstones]] from the Worldstone itself. Moreover, he helped [[Tal Rasha]] and his fellow mages to imprison [[Baal]], offering crucial aid and advice to them. Tyrael's personalityactions caused the Horadrim to hail him as their "Savior", for without his aid, Sanctuary would have long since fallen to Hell's unholy slavery. Can be extensive.-->

==Background==Tyrael was the one who provided the When [[HoradrimDiablo]] was freed again, Tyrael openly intervenes, even directly grappling with the [[soulstoneDark Wanderer]]s they used to imprison stop the release of Baal, but ultimately fails to stop the Prime Evils because of [[DiabloMarius]], removing Baal's Soulstone from Tal Rasha's chest. Ensnared by Baal's tentacles and bound to the Binding Stone in [[MephistoTal Rasha's Chamber]], Tyrael is eventually freed by the player and travels to the [[BaalPandemonium Fortress]] with centuries before where he gives the player the time covered in [[Diablo Iquests]] and to destroy [[Diablo IIIzual]]and finally Diablo himself. He is unable to overtly help the player because according to his own words, and he has appeared was severely weakened by Baal, who damaged the forces that bind him to humans in many other times Sanctuary, and locations, always (appearing?) to assist also because he was wary of what could befall Sanctuary if the humans in High Heavens were aware of the fight against the demonic forcescorruption that had so tainted it. Amongst players there After Diablo is must speculation as to Tyrael's real agendadefeated, but in the game all of he opens the portal to [[NPCsHarrogath]] seem to hold him in the highest esteem.

==Appearance==[[File:TYRAEL.jpg|thumb|270px|Tyrael was captured by wielding [[BaalSword of Justice]] after he failed to stop [[Diablo]] from releasing Baal but was eventually freed by Tyrael has the adventurers appearance of [[Diablo II]]a tall, imposing humanoid. He returned to the adventurers is clad in the {{wl|Pandemonium Fortress}}burnished bronze and golden plate armor, and has tendrils of light coming out of his back which also double as wings. Although he is described in the last bastion before [[Hell]]Diablo II manual to be "beautiful beyond comprehension", to offer some assistancein game his face is a featureless mask of darkness.

At ==Personality==Even before his change at the end of [[Diablo 2]], when it was clear that [[Baal]] had permanently corrupted the ''[[WorldstoneSin War]]'', Tyrael decided that the only thing he could do to protect , "not sounding sanctimonious like [[SanctuaryInarius]] was but rather simply stating a fact", told Uldyssian to destroy accept the sacred relicinevitable end. The destruction left [[Mount Arreat]] as nothing more than a craterFurthermore, unlike Inarius, who sought to humanity to fuel his own vanity and dealt a devastating blow to ego, or the [[BarbarianPrime Evils]] tribes, who saw it sought to use humanity as their life duty weapons against the Heavens, Tyrael seems to protect have marked Sanctuary for destruction not out of particular hatred or cruelty, but because he truly finds doing both righteous and necessary - the Worldstoneexecution of his inviolable and sacred Justice. {{iw|Anya Anya}} however considers Tyrael has gone to great lengths to uphold this strange Justice, even directly interceding whilst attempting to prevent Imperius from slaying Diablo. Also, Tyrael is notably the only member of the Angiris Council to of his own volition undergo a truly drastic change in personality and tells us in her valediction that this action was never foreseen in the propheciesworldview.

<!--===Friends===List friendsIn ''[[Diablo II]]'', Tyrael appears as a positive character, personally protecting the last of the [[Horadrim]], [[Deckard Cain]], and constantly offering considerable advice and aid to the player, transporting them around the world and telling them ways to save Sanctuary from the chaos of Hell. Not limited He is very concerned for mortals and is always seeking to interactions aid them in their battles against the games, but include books Prime Evils. He is (as well far as rumoursimmortals go) a friendly and approachable personality. Compared to some of the other members of the [[High Heavens]], Tyrael is also somewhat impatient and belligerent, but make sure rumours are marked as suchevidenced by his eagerness to help the mortals in contrast to his peers' aloofness, and his berating the player for arriving in [[Tal Rasha's Tomb]] too late.-->

<!--===Foes=Powers==List friends[[File:D3Tyrael.jpg|thumb|left|380px|The Justice of Angels]]As the Archangel of Justice of the supreme [[Angiris Council]] (thus described as being the "essence" of Justice, by Inarius, and champion of its aspect, by Mephisto), Tyrael is one of the mightiest and highest-ranking [[Angels]] in the [[High Heavens]]. Not limited In the ''[[Sin War]]'' novels, he displays enough power on Sanctuary to restrain even [[Uldyssian]] (albeit through exploiting his weakness) and easily render unconscious and seize control over [[Achilios]], almost forcing him to interactions slay his friends against his will, also providing him with a never-ending supply of sharp, and in the gamessome manner, magical arrows. Tyrael can use his tendrils of energy, but include books as well as rumoursor his wings, but make sure rumours are marked as suchto physically hinder and grab onto other objects and characters.-->

<!--===Other Related People===List anyone not included in friends/foes. Not limited Capable of rapid flight (like all [[Angels]]), concealing himself from the sight and magic of others, even the likes of [[Inarius]], resurrecting [[Mercenaries]], appearing at will to mortals, projecting the souls of humans across vast distances unhindered by physical barriers (as he did with [[Serenthia]] when he sent her to [[Kehjan]] by touching his palm to her forehead, though this seems to interactions in be at least partly illusory), contacting the gamesother Angels across dimensions, and opening temporary portals to various locations, but include books such as well the cities of [[Lut Gholein]] and [[Harrogath]], Tyrael is said to be "naturally far stronger" than his brother and fellow Archangel Inarius, whom he conceded as rumours"powerful, but make sure rumours are marked as suchno more so than any on the Angiris Council", and who is the mightiest of all the Angels and Demons who created Sanctuary. In the past, at least in the time of [[Siggard]], Tyrael has actually manifested himself in human form, clad in grey, with a musical voice, eyes sparkling with life, and a long mane of blond hair; in this shape, Tyrael seems especially benign and has claimed that it is "very difficult" for the most powerful Angels to appear on the mortal plane, and that even he cannot manifest himself for more than a night at a time.-->

==Previous AppearancesIn Game==Tyrael is seen in three places in In [[Diablo II]]. The first is , Tyrael appears as a questgiver at the end of Act Two, when he greets the player from the island where Baal/Tal Rasha had been imprisoned. The second meeting comes Pandemonium Fortress in the [[Pandemonium Fortress]], the town of Act Four, where Tyrael interacts with characters like any other [[NPCIV]], though of course he's a bit less chatty.

He is not a merchantIn the expansion, but he can resurrect dead also provides the services of a [[follower|mercsmercenary captain]]. Contrary to popular belief, for the usual price. What Tyrael does with the he takes [[gold]] is an eternal question and running joke for to revive [[mercenaries]], leading to many playerscalling him a money-hoarder. The third sighting of Blizzard jokingly explained this behavior by saying that Tyrael comes at has to pay certain bills. He also opens the end of Act Five, when he descends from above after portal to Harrogath. Tyrael can be seen in four Diablo II [[Baalcinematics]]'s defeat , and in the Worldstone ChamberDiablo 3 teaser trailer.
