Barbarian
Skills
The D3 Barbarian's skills are very similar to the Barbarian from Diablo II, only much more primal, savage and in a way spiritual. Some of the crowd-control skills like Grim Ward are still missing but it can be seen that the skill trees are divided into three distinct play-styles (read builds) with theJuggernaut being especially liked by the fanbase because of the overall coolness of the name as well as the great variety of all-purpose skills in the tree.
Unlike their previous incarnations, the Barbarian now uses Fury and Stamina (the Barbarian equivalent of Mana) for their skills. These new mechanics are detailed below.
The Barbarian is still an epic force of destruction, but you can no longer mash leap, whirlwind, and your other favorite skills and rely on mana leeching to give you inifinte skill use.
You can kill strictly with the generators, but if you want to smash people in half and cleave entire hordes down instantly, you’ll be needing some fury dumps as well!
Monk
As a result, the Monk can combo the "stages" of different skills into unique chains of martial arts abilities.
Monk's skills focus on Holy energy and ancestral knowledge, these two facts being evidenced by the color palette of the skills which combines white, silver, gold and blue and the runes which appear on the ground when the Monk uses certain skills.
The runes also mark the area in which the skill take effect.
The Monk's Skill Trees are yet to be named, though they have been given the names Skill Tree A,B, and C by Blizzard. So far, only a few of the Monk's skills have been officially released and named:Wiki Monk
Deckard Cain
Deckard Cain returns in Diablo III.
Cain's journal is published as lore. It tells the events of Diablo and Diablo II in an abbreviated form and suggests numerous times that Cain was an elder and
lorekeeper from Tristram, without much prior knowledge of the outside world - a stark contrast to the well-versed and knowledgable "last of the Horadrim" loremaster of Diablo and Diablo II,
although this might be because he was writing it while disguised as Cain the Elder or he might have gotten knowledge from Adria's books.
It is also strongly implied that Cain had no previous knowledge of the Worldstone prior to the events of the Diablo II ending.
Deckard Cain is the Brother in Law of Aiden, 
Warrior from Diablo I and Dark Wanderer. Wiki Deckard Cain

Wizard D3
Skills Sorceress
Sorceress
The female mage clan of Zann Esu is one of the oldest of the ancient clans, although little is actually known about them.
Centuries ago, the fourteen powerful covens of Esu witches convened for the first time in generations.
What they discussed is not known, but the witches left behind their former lives and, as a group, disappeared into the Eastern jungles.
The exact location of their community is a mystery.
Until recently, their only contact with the outside world occurred during the recruitment missions.
Once every seven years, the Zann Esu visit certain families across Sanctuary.
These families have only one thing in common - they each have a seven-year-old daughter.
Always good-natured and polite, the Zann Esu visitors meet the girls, ask a few questions and then leave.
A select few of the girls are visited a second time and offered apprenticeships.
The families of those chosen enjoy good fortune for many years. WIZARD
