"I'm a bad bitch, you can't kill me"
As a mortal, Bha'al was a killing machine, and upon his fall became the demon lord of murder. However, he hungered for power, and wanted to take over the material plane in addition to the Underworld. Over two centuries ago, a mortal by the name of Syrick was able to slay him using a glass sword, Godsbane. Bha'al's essence was then concentrated inside of a magical orb. This orb was taken by the Revenant, who planned to use it to corrupt people. Their end goal is to bring Bha'al back and enact revenge on the mortal world.
After Bhaal was killed by Godsbane, no one knew what happened to his essence. There is speculation the sword was in the water. After his death, he lost much of his following, save for a key few priests who kept the religion alive in order to keep the essence alive. Their goal was to find his essence. They recruited people through extreme measures. There were also several children (Spawn) of Bhaal, most of which were killed or had died. However, there is a possibility of more existing. The last known spawn lived out his days on the Sword Coast turning from Bhaal, and became a martyr against Bhaal. The last groups of Bhaal’s followers were in Neverwinter, Baldur’s Gate, Waterdeep, and a small but persistent following in Silvery Moon.
