Bane

Bane is the God of War, known as part of the Light Pantheon. The Black Hand acts indirectly through worshipers and other agents to achieve his ultimate plan to achieve total domination of all.
When his avatar is summoned, Bane has a dark and rather shadowy appearance with a resemblance of dark armor and his tell-tale jeweled, dark gauntlet. He emanates an aura of vast power and cruel intelligence.
Bane is a wholly malevolent and brutal deity that distances himself from mere mortals, prefers to reign over his followers from afar. He savors the terror he instills in others and the hatred that forms in mortals' hearts, utilizing this strife to gain greater control over the Realms.
While Bane believed himself the rightful ruler of all the planes and could not tolerate subservience to anyone, the god was willing, unlike many evil deities, to work with others if it served his interests and the god formed multiple alliances. Some of these include, Mask, Tiamat, and Malar.
