Notes and Trivia
- All three members of the Dead Three were available as deity options for Cleric in Early Access but were cut in the full release of the game.
Spoiler warning! This section reveals details about the story of Baldur's Gate 3.
- Passing the Investigation check for the Book of Dead Gods references the Dead Three.
- The Brand of the Absolute bears a striking resemblance to their symbols: the black hand of Bane, the skull of Bhaal, and the triangle-inset skull of Myrkul.
- Chapter Two reveals that the Dead Three are behind The Absolute and its cult. The Chosen of the Absolute are in reality the Dead Three's Chosen who control The Netherbrain; a powerful Illithid Elder Brain using the Crown of Karsus with the Netherstones. Their chosen are as follow:
- Lord Enver Gortash is the Chosen of Bane
- Orin the Red is the Chosen of Bhaal
- Ketheric Thorm is the Chosen of Myrkul
- During the conversation with Ketheric Thorm, he will reveal that he became Myrkul's chosen after Myrkul resurrected his daughter Isobel.
- If defeated in battle or passing a Persuasion check, Ketheric Thorm will sacrifice himself and summon the Apostle of Myrkul.
