Bane, also known as the Lord of Darkness, is the God of Tyranny, Hate, Strife and a member of the Dead Three. He is associated with the domains of Order and War. Bane cannot be the deity of a player character Cleric.

Revelations

Act Two

Enver Gortash is revealed to be Bane's Chosen. In the Mind Flayer Colony underneath Moonrise Towers, Gortash is accompanied by Orin the Red and Ketheric Thorm. Using his Netherese Stone, the Edict of Bane, he issues the order to the Netherbrain to march the Absolute's armies on Baldur's Gate.

Act Three

If Enver Gortash is fought, he can call to Bane for aid and Bane will transform Gortash into the Avatar of Tyranny. If Speak with Dead is used on Enver Gortash, Bane will respond in his stead claiming that Gortash's soul is now suffering at his hands for failing him.
