![]() What if we win?”īecause this is one of the most integral pieces of the puzzle that makes up Lilith’s character, and her motivations as a whole. She found these weapons (her children) and thought of something no other demon had thought of. That’s very understandable, but she’s the daughter of hatred, and there is this DNA in her that has to play the bigger game and have this bigger part. “You think that’d make sense, a mother protecting her children. But nothing is ever so clean cut with Lilith according to Copeland. She was described as being “fang” and “claw” and “pure fury,” going to the places where each rebel leader was hiding and denying them the decision to kill her children.” Lilith’s dedication to Sanctuary and her children is admirable to be sure. “And when that creation was threatened, she shifted right back into being full of rage. “Demons are all about destruction and hatred.” Copeland said. And Lilith wasn’t going to have any of that. In a panic, the leaders of this rebellion came together to try and decide the fate of what would become humanity, and if their lives were effectively worth their peace. ![]() Described as “God-level beings” by Copeland, the children born from the tryst of demons and angels were a threat to the High Heavens, which compromised the rebels that were hiding in Sanctuary to divorce themselves from the Eternal Conflict to begin with. However, once these children were born their lives were immediately threatened. Even in the case of the conception of her children, and the creation of Sanctuary in and of itself. We’re talking about the wrath of kingdoms going against one another.” And in Lilith’s case, her role as the daughter of hatred is integral to understanding her character. You know, something raw like two people against one another. “When we talk about hatred, we’re not talking about anger. But hatred in Diablo is more multifaceted than one might think and isn’t defined by conventional terms. Copeland stressed that hatred is part of Lilith’s DNA. In Diablo 4, Lilith mourns the death of her only child-Rathma, the founder of necromancy in Sanctuary-her intentions are driven by a core emotion: Hatred. While Lilith herself is an imposing figure, summoned forth from a horrific ritual witnessed in the “By Three They Come” announcement trailer, there was a glimpse into something more human, more tender than what we’ve seen in a Diablo antagonist thus far through the open beta period. Her role as the primary antagonist in this entry of the Diablo series may be more multifaceted than Blizzard is letting on. So while it’s an amazing moment, yes, the creator has returned, but again it’s ‘What does this creator want from us?’ And what is the toll it will take on the world?” ![]() We’re seeing a threat that’s going to affect everyone, everywhere. “She’s not coming just to build a kingdom and establish dominance like we saw in West March. "While I would say “That’s just life in Sanctuary!” this is one of those threats that you just can’t ignore.” Copeland elaborated, explaining just what Lilith’s reappearance means in the grand scheme of things. “Metaphorically, Lilith represents a threat," says Copeland.
