Sarevok Anchev

Biography
Sarevok was raised as an urchin in the streets, until he was adopted as Sarevok Anchev by his foster father Reiltar Anchev, the leader of the merchant house the Iron Throne. When he was just a child, Reiltar had Sarevok's mother strangled in front of him as punishment for unfaithfulness, an event which has had a significant impact on him. Under the ruthless tutelege of the Iron Throne, Sarevok studied the art of intimidation and the cruelest and most brutal styles of combat in order to become a Deathbringer, a powerful warrior possessing the abilities to paralyze an opponent in mêlée battle through fear alone, as well as killing the most powerful of opponents in a single, massive blow.

Sarevok is a Bhaalspawn, a child of the dead god Bhaal, a consequence following the cataclysmic Time of Troubles. It is because of this that Sarevok plotted, through violence, politics and manipulation, to start a war between Baldur's Gate and Amn, causing enough carnage and bloodshed to transform him into the new god of murder. Aditionally, he had his foster father, Rieltar Anchev, gorrotted by doppelgangers, revenge that he felt was appropriate for the murder of his mother.
