Tal Rasha doesn't actually appear in-game as an NPC, besides in cinematics where he is often seen fighting to contain the demon Baal within his soulstone-bound spirit.
He's been added as an NPC entry to ease autolinking of the words Tal, Tal Rasha etc. as they occur so frequently.

Lore
Tal Rasha was a powerful Horadric Mage, and the original leader of the order.He became the host for Baal, Lord of Destruction. Few Sorcerers have been able to reach the same levels of fame that he has.
Can be used to make Runewords:
Jared Cain of the Horadrim in the D1 manual:
" Mephisto and Diablo, once found, were easily lured into the Soulstones. The capture of their brother Baal, however, became complicated when the Soulstone that was to be his eternal prison was shattered and fragmented. We found that while the shards still held the power to lure the demon to them, they could not properly contain it. Tal Rasha, a fellow Initiate who has been since immortalized in Horadrim Lore, theorized that a mortal of strong will might be able to contain Baal within his own mortal soul. This Sacrifice meant that the essence of any mortal so chosen would be forever tortured while locked in eternal conflict with the enthralled demon. To this end, Tal Rasha volunteered to contain the raging Lord of Destruction.
Piercing his breast with a shard of the Soulstone, Tal Rasha took within himself the essence of Baal, the Lord of Destruction. The Initiate’s body was shackled, chained and buried deep within a tomb under the desert. The Sacrifice of Tal Rasha has kept Baal imprisoned for many years now, and although the demon was imprisoned without the use a whole Soulstone, we believe that our victory may be a hollow one. Should Tal Rasha ever escape, he would have the formidable powers of Baal added to his own. By ridding the world of this present Evil, we may have created a nightmare worse than that which we first sought to contain…"
