Cult of the dead three
The Dead Three, also known as the Dark Gods, was a collective of three, death-themed deities: Bane, the Lord of Darkness; Bhaal, the Lord of Murder; and Myrkul, the Lord of Bones. Originally, they were powerful mortal adventurers who sought the path to godhood and were known as the Dark Three. They found it in the form of Jergal, who acquiesced to their demands as he was tiring of his life as god of the dead. He gave up his portfolios to the three of them, apotheosizing them in the process. Bane ruled tyranny and strife, Bhaal became the god of murder, and Myrkul was lord of the dead.
They had a large presence in the 1500s in Baldurs Gate, and are now a large presence in the underbelly of Neverwinter.
