The Order of Mage Slayers was formed after the Vizjerei survived the tragedy brought on by Bartuc and Horazon during the Mage Clan Wars. Their purpose was to watch for rogue magi that may become corrupted by the forces of Evil. To be effective at this task they were trained in abilities that were not conducive to Demonic corruption. Living as rumour and myth to the general population, even other magi knew very little about this mysterious order. Their reputation was shrouded in mystery and the simple fear of their retribution almost ensured steadfast vigilance against corruption amongst those who knew they were real.


Assassins do not employ the magical arts directly; rather, they use enchanted items that mimic elemental powers and can be used autonomously. To further avoid potential corruption, they focus on the natural abilities of the mortal body - powers of the mind and unarmed combat.

Yes, Lore is the 5-6 bookset for Diablo. You can purhase from Blizzard's website.

From The Kingdom of Shadow:

The Mage Clan WarsEdit
In the year -264, the truth of the Vizjerei's summoning became known to the Ennead, as one of their sources within the Vizjerei reported seeing a ritual of summoning in the depths of the Yshari Sanctum. Assassins were assigned to target key Vizjerei members, where the Vizjerei targeted key Ennead and Ammuit figures in retaliation. The situation further deteriorated where a heated meeting in the Al'Raquish erupted into a battle that resulted in multiple deaths. With the violence coming out into the open, the Ennead and Ammuit stormed the main Vizjerei academy at Viz-jun. By the time the dust cleared, the academy had been leveled, and not a single Vizjerei mage was left alive. Thus began the Mage Clan Wars.


This was the lore birth of the Assassin class which, as i mentioned above, sprung from the magi order. The druids were introduced during this same phase and played a part in the war.

You're also ignoring that Diablo sprang from DnD, where assassins and druids have been playable classes forever. That lore really predates the whole scenario. Plus like i said, there's a sin in act 3.
