===Diablo Classes===
As this was the first game, only three classes were presented as player options. This being early days, they were much less defined then they would be in later games. Though their strengths and weaknesses affected what they could do, theoretically, any class could be pushed into any direction; melee, ranged or magic.

The Warrior is your basic [[Fighter]] type. With the highest Strength and Vitality scores in the game, it's a classic tank, excelling at wearing heavy armour and using powerful weapons to crush and slaughter whatever stands in its way. It's the easiest class to play as, given it's your standard "get up close and hit things" character. His unique Skill is Repair, which lets him fix up damaged items at the cost of permanently lowering their maximum durability, allowing them to prolong their usefulness. Canonically, the Warrior is Prince Aidan, elder son of King Leoric.

The [[Rogue]] is the only female character, and hails from the Sisterhood of the Sightless Eye, an order of female warrior-women that splintered off/descended from the [[Amazon]] warriors of the Askari. Consequently, the Rogue plays much like a precursor to the Amazon class in the second game. Rogues have the highest Dexterity in the game, start with a bow and have the unique ability to fire bows faster than either of the other classes. As a result, they're optimised for ranged combat, specializing in shooting demons down from afar and running away from melee fights, though they're better at magic use than the Warror is. Her unique Skill is Trapfinding, allowing a player a chance to avoid those pesky exploding barrels and projectile-launching chests. The canonical name of the Rogue is Moreina.

The [[Sorcerer]] is your magic-using class, capable of casting spells faster than any other and with the greatest Magic score in the game. The Sorcerer is the frailest character in the game, with the lowest Vitality score, but his powerful spells make up for it quite amply. It does make lower levels much trickier, as he will spend a lot of gold of health ''and'' mana potions to keep himself going. His unique skill is Recharge Staves, which allows him to re-imbue magic into staves so he can keep casting spells from them, though like the Warrior's Repair skill this does permanently lower the amount of magic a staff can store, until it becomes useless. The Sorcerer hails from the Vizjeri mage clan, the most infamous clan due to its long association with dark magics - they were the first mage clan to ever try and magically control demons. The canonical name of the Sorcerer is Jazreth.

Prince Aidan, Moreina and Jazreth canonically fought together in the events of the first game.
