Who is the hero that “uses” the soulstone at the end of Diablo?

Question

Spoiler alert! Don't read if you haven't completed the original Diablo from 1996.

---

At the end of the original Diablo, the hero shoves Diablo's soulstone into his or her forehead. That ending is identical for any hero choice. Is there a canonical "which hero it was" fact in Diablo II? e.g. do we know that it was a warrior that used the soulstone, and subsequently became the host for Diablo's new form?

Answer

From what I remember, and this forum thread agrees with me is that

• The Rogue became Blood Raven, a minor super unique quest mob from Act 1 of Diablo 2
• The Sorcerer became The Summoner, Horizon's impersonator, a super unique quest mob from Act 2 of Diablo 2

This leaves the most likely outcome, the bulky Warrior became the cannon Diablo in Diablo 2.
