Background[edit | edit source]

This section concerns content exclusive to Diablo universe.

The amazon is a powerful woman warrior of the Askari, who belongs to nomadic bands who roam the plains near the South Sea. The wandering of these groups often brings them into conflict with other peoples, so the amazon is accustomed to fighting to defend her own. This lifestyle has made her fiercely independent and able to weather severe hardship and travel. While her skill with the bow rivals that of the rogues, the amazon is also adept in the use of spears and javelins, as well as in hand-to-hand combat.
