A skilled Sister can send a stream of arrows at an opponent, each fired with a seemingly careless precision. The innate sixth sense that all Rogues seem to possess also allows them to sense trapped fixtures, and aids them in attempts to disarm these traps.'' Rogues returned in Diablo II, as the main NPCs of Act One. It was their monastery through which the Dark Wanderer has passed, waking demons and calling forth Andariel, the Maiden of Anguish, to corrupt and defile the Sisters and their stronghold. Rogues can be hired as mercenaries in Act One, and as part of the game fiction players learn that the rogue character from ''Diablo I'' returned to the Monastery and was corrupted, eventually becoming [[Blood Raven]], a demon archer you must defeat in one of the earliest quests in ''Diablo II''.
