Over a century ago, when Sarevok was a young boy, he was kidnapped by [[Bhaal]]'s cultist to be sacrificed with other bhaalspawn children. He saved from death by a group of Harpers, but unlike other children who got adopted, Sarevok was left behind.

He was living on the streets as an urchin until he was adopted by Richtar (who later adopted alias Rieltar Anchev), the Arm of the [[Iron Throne]]. Rieltar had his foster mother strangled in front of him, which had a great impact on the young boy's psyche.

Over time, he developed an interest in his bhaalspawn heritage and wanted to make a worthy sacrifice to Bhaal. To achieve this he designed a plan to manipulate the Iron Throne into starting a war between [[Baldur's Gate]] and the nation of Amn.

He convinced his father that his plan would bring them immense wealth and influence. They sabotaged the iron ore production by Nashkel Mines and blamed it on Amn. When his sibling, another bhaalspawn - Gorion's Ward (the main protagonist of the first Baldur's Gate games) learned of his plan, he killed the Iron Throne leaders, including Rieltar, and framed Gorion's Ward for it.

Terrified with the possibility of a coming war, the people of Baldur's Gate nominated Sarevok as one of the new Grand Dukes of Baldur's Gate. During his coronation, Sarevok was confronted by his sibling he was exposed in front of Baldurian nobility. Having fled to the [[Undercity Ruins|Undercity]] to the Temple of Bhaal they fought a final battle 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.
