Before they were gods, Bane, Bhaal and Myrkul were once mortal men who dreamed of godhood. They set out into the world amassing power and defeating all who opposed them. Once they had gathered enough power, the Three set their sights on {{CharLink|Jergal}}, the ancient God of Death whose power they coveted the most. They stormed Jergal's realm and confronted him at his throne. However, they were taken aback by Jergal's willingness to step aside as the Lord of the End had grown tired of his power and station. Jergal proposed a game of chance to the Three so they could equally divide his power amongst themselves without killing each other for it. | Before they were gods, Bane, Bhaal and Myrkul were once mortal men who dreamed of godhood.

Bane was the ultimate winner of the game and chose Tyranny, Strife and Hatred. Myrkul came in second place and chose to rule the Dead. Bhaal came in last, so Murder and Death were given to him. Their goal achieved, the Three joined the Faerûnian pantheon and began to spread their new faith and dominions meanwhile Jergal who still retained some divinity served Myrkul. | Bane was the ultimate winner of the game and chose Tyranny, Strife and Hatred.
