When Sarevok's sibling, another bhaalspawn -- Gorion's Ward (the main protagonist of the first ''Baldur's Gate'' games) -- learned of his plan, Sarevok killed the Iron Throne leaders, including Rieltar, and framed Gorion's Ward for it. | ||

During his coronation, Sarevok was confronted by his sibling and was exposed in front of Baldurian nobility. Having fled to the [[Bhaal Temple|Temple of Bhaal]] located in the [[Undercity Ruins|Undercity]], a final battle took place between the Ward's and Sarevok's respective groups, which ended in Sarevok's defeat and death. | ||
In death Sarevok lost his bhaalspawn divine spark. Some time later, Sarevok's essence manifested in the pocket plane of Bhaal's Throne of Blood. He offered Gorion's Ward vital information in exchange for a part of their divine soul so that he may live again. This time Sarevok traveled alongside his sibling as an ally. | In death Sarevok lost his bhaalspawn divine spark.

If the soul was actually slain by the party, then no deception checks are needed. Choosing the first two options or the last option make Sarevok and the echoes hostile.

Sarevok instantly recognizes them and declares them traitors. The party can respond by stating they are sacrifices offered up to Bhaal and kill them, or go through Intimidation or Performance checks to make Jaheira and / or Minsc kneel before the Tribunal. Doing the latter satisfies Sarevok enough to allow the Tribunal to continue and both Minsc and Jaheira can be baptised as unholy assassins. The party also gains an option to initiate combat by asking Jaheira and / or Minsc whether either of them would like to kill Sarevok again; they defer to the player character, saying they do not need to repeat the experience. If only Jaheira and / or Minsc are present when interacting with the Murder Tribunal, there'll be no dialogue options nor checks: Sarevok and the echoes will become hostile after the dialogue. | ||
