== Previous appearances ==
The Slayer Form is a returning ability present in ''Baldur's Gate 2''. It first appeared in ''{{FRWiki|Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn}}'' as an ability granted midway through the game.
The Slayer is only one of three avatars of Bhaal: a shapeshifting one called {{FRWiki|Kazgoroth}}, a human-sized one named the Slayer, and a giant named the Ravager. While only the Slayer appears within ''Baldur's Gate 3'', the Ravager appears in ''{{FRWiki|Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal}}'' as the protagonist's "taint" due to being a Bhaalspawn, while Kazgoroth is a separate creature, described as either a minion or Avatar of Bhaal in some circumstances.
