Hi, i am §kyboy. My real name is EuGEne. Ok, i will start the introduction. Diablo 2 is a sequel to the award-winning game, Diablo. Here is information about the story of Diablo 2.

Diablo Resurgent
At the end of Diablo, the hero had defeated Diablo and then imprisoned the archdevil in the soulstone. Knowing that the stone must never fall into the wrong hands, the hero then embedded the soulstone in his forehead, hoping to contain Diablo's essence with his own will. Unfortunately, the devil proved too powerful for our very mortal hero, and he succumbed to the devil's greater will and personality.

Not only did Diablo reassert himself in this new body, but he also became even more powerful, adding to the abilities of his host to his own considerable demonic presence. He's meaner, bigger, and much more deadly now. He's also on an urgent mission to revive his two brothers, Baal and Mephisto. Together, they form the Three Prime Evils. After regaining form, Diablo destroys Tristram and then walks east. As a new hero who wants to stop the resurgent archdevil, you must follow Diablo's trail of destruction to three different areas, each contained in a separate act.

As the game progresses, more of the story unfolds. In the first act, a prospective Prime Evil named Andariel, who wants to join the all-boys club of major badasses, has blocked your passage through the mountains east. She has taken over the Monastery of the Sisters of the Sightless Eye. The Sisters are the order of warriors to whom the original Diablo Rogue belonged. Now, the once proud order has been shattered by Andariel. You must save the Sisters and oust Andariel, while helping to rid the infested area around the monastery of evil.

After the monastery, you must make your way east to the desert, to a city called Lut Golane, where the sorcerer order called the Vizjerai reign. The sorcerer from Diablo was a product of the Vizjerai system. The Prime Evil Baal is imprisoned below the sands of Lut Golane, and so naturally Diablo has come here to free his brother. As with the first act, you will have to cleanse this place of evil. However, Blizzard North is silent about who you'll fight in the end battle of act two. Will it be a freed Baal? A determined Diablo? Or another lesser devil? Regardless, after Lut Golane, you must take a ship to the next area and act.

You follow Diablo's trail to the jungle city of Kurast, built around an ancient temple of the same name. You will find that another religious order, the Zakarum, make their home in this far eastern realm, and their mission since their founding has been to contain Mephisto. But is their power now waning, and could their weakness result in the release of another powerful devil?

Blizzard North won't reveal anything more beyond this act, but we have a pretty good idea that the chase for Diablo will continue into the finale and will require you to confront Diablo and maybe his two brothers as well. -extracted
