Bane
Bane is the Faerunian god of tyrannical oppression, terror, and hate, known across Faerûn as the face of pure evil through malevolent despotism. From his dread plane of Banehold, the Black Hand acts indirectly through worshipers and other agents to achieve his ultimate plan to achieve total domination of all Faerun.
Although a banned cult in the United Moonshae's the influence and secretive sects have found a foothold, much to the chagrin of the Perceptors.
“
...I choose to rule for all eternity as the ultimate tyrant. I can induce hatred and strife at my whim, and all will bow down before me while in my kingdom.
”
— Bane
Description
When 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.
Personality
Bane is a wholly malevolent and brutal deity that distanced himself from mere mortals, preferring to reign over his followers from afar. He savors the terror he instilled in others and the hatred that formed in mortals' hearts, utilizing this strife to gain greater control over the Realms.

He gains any powers they held in their life, and protects his host from psionic control.
Possessions
Unlike other deities Bane possesses no divine weapon, rather he favors his own gauntleted right hand
