Bane
Bane is the evil-aligned god of war and conquest. Militaristic nations of humanoids and Fae serve him and conquer in his name. Evil fighters and paladins serve him. He rules from his fortress of Tuer-Chern, which he created around the dead god Tuern's throne. He battles endlessly with Gruumsh for supremacy. Many of Bane's warpriest clerics fight each other for supremacy as well.
During the Dawn War, Bane worked closely with Kord, Pelor and Sehanine. Bane demanded martial skill from his followers, many of whom spend hours in drills and practice battles. If they are not hefting a weapon on a battlefield, his most faithful are studying theories of warfare or playing games of strategy to hone the military mind.
Bane and Dol Arrah were great stratigists and were pitted against one another many times during the War of Winter. Bane tricked Dol Arrah and took her as a prisoner.

Tenets of Faith
Bane commands his disciples as such:
- Serve no one but Bane. Fear him always and make others fear him even more than you do.
- Submit to the word of Bane as uttered by his ranking clergy, since true power can only be gained through service to him.
- It is the doom of those who do not follow Bane to let power slip through their hands.
