![[BhaalPic.png]] # Bhaal *God, God of Murder | The Dead Three | Gehenna* ## Summary [[Bhaal]], the Lord of Murder, is the god of assassination, violent death, and murder. He represents the act of killing for its own sake, the thrill of taking a life, and the inevitability of violent death. His symbol is a skull surrounded by teardrops, and he is worshipped by assassins, murderers, and those who deal death professionally. [[Bhaal]] teaches that death is the ultimate destination of all life, that murder is a sacred act that brings one closer to this fundamental truth, and that fear of death gives killers power over their victims. He delights in creative methods of murder and views each killing as an offering to his dark glory. [[Bhaal]] forms part of the Dead Three alongside [[Bane]] and Myrkul, representing the trio of tyranny, murder, and death.
