Welcome to Jen’s Lore Corner, a podcast about the lore of the Diablo video game series. This podcast started as a segment on the Shattered Soulstone podcast. I decided to re-release those segments in their own podcast.

New content started with Episode 010.

In this episode, I talk about the lore of King Kanai, the beloved true king of the Barbarians. The character was named after a real person.

Before I started recording this episode, I put together a blog post with everything I know about King Kanai. It has screenshots from the Diablo III game, and links to all my source material.

In this episode, I talk about Mayor Holis, an NPC (non-player character) that players run into when they go through the story mode of the game. The most interesting thing about him is that he starts out as an annoying character… and then grows into a much better person.

In Episode 002, I talk about the small amount of lore we have about Squirt the Peddler.  She’s the little girl who sells goods to random, wandering, adventurers who come to the Hidden Camp. In this “tin foil hat” episode, I explain why I think Squirt is not a little girl at all – she’s actually an ancient god.
