===Life and Mana===

There is no life or mana regeneration in Diablo, and life and mana leech are very rare properties, and only work with melee weapons. As a result the game is a bit of a potion fest, with the high level play style (especially for Sorcerers) punctuated by regular trips to Adria the Witch, where the entire inventory is filled with mana potions. Pepin the healer sells healing potions, but most life for Rogues and Warriors comes from the Healing skill. Sorcerers have very low hit points and very high mana, so they use the very effective (overpowered) Mana Shield 100% of the time.

Death in Diablo comes to everyone, sooner or later. It's a non-factor in single player. When you die in SP you can only start a new game, or load from your last save point. There is no "restart in town" option. It's wise to save often in single player, since few things are more annoying than dying after a long play session only to realize you'll have to repeat all those areas since you hadn't saved for an hour.
