  • Amelyssan the Blackhearted was a priestess and Deathstalker of Bhaal whom that deity entrusted with the task of resurrecting him. Having foreseen his death during the Time of Troubles, Bhaal came to Toril years before the event and mated with mortal females of different races, producing offspring called Bhaalspawn, who were to slaughter each other and fuel his rebirth. Amelyssan's task was to perform rituals that would complete Bhaal's return. However, her own goal, at least towards the end, was to gather all the power of Bhaal's essence released from his children into herself and become a goddess. Posing as a benefactor of the Bhaalspawn under the name Melissan for most people, and gathering together The Five with promises of great power once Bhaal would be resurrected, she manipulated events to the point where nearly all Bhaalspawn were killed, and came close to achieving her goal. However, one Bhaalspawn defeated not only The Five - which suited Amelyssan's plans - but also the prospective goddess herself, beating her in an epic battle in the Mana Forge and gaining control of all of Bhaal's essence for themselves. Having been welded to the essence, her soul was annihilated permanently when it was removed.
  • Amelyssan, also known as Melissan or Amelyssan the Blackhearted appears as a well-intended woman when she first met in Saradush, a city under siege by Yaga-Shura, a powerful Bhaalspawn and one of the Five, who is seemingly invincible. She and a group of civilians are trying to gain an audience with Gromnir Il-Khan, a Bhaalspawn orc who is a veteran general and has locked himself up in the castle. The guards at the door refuse this audience and will turn hostile towards the party and the civilians. Melissan recognizes Gorion's Ward as a child of Bhaal, as she has met many Bhaalspawn during her journeys to bring them to Saradush, for an unknown reason. She will ask you to help defend the city and defeat Yaga-Shura before the walls are breached. Your first task is that you must find a way into the castle and convince Gromnir to stop his soldiers from making the situation worse than it already is. After infiltrating the castle and going to the council chamber, the paranoid Gromnir accuses Melissan of being in league with the Five and bringing as many Bhaalspawn as possible to Saradush, not as a sanctuary, but to make the killing of rival Bhaalspawn as easy as possible for the alliance of the five most powerful Bhaalspawn. Gromnir also believes that the party of Gorion's Ward are assassins sent by Melissan to kill him, which makes it impossible to avoid bloodshed. Now you have dealt with Gromnir, you must find a way to defeat Yaga-Shura before he has breached the city gates. After you have obtained the means to kill Yaga-Shura, the walls of Saradush are breached and you must defeat him. After he is defeated, Mellisan appears once more and tells you that she will meet you in Amkethran, where she will acquire the locations of another two Bhaalspawn, who are members of the Five. However, when you arrive there, she has moved on, but a local head of the monastery, Balthazar, will give you the locations. When the last member of the Five is killed, Solar will summon Mellisan to the Pocket Plane. Then you will find out that she is in fact Amelyssan the Blackhearted, a chaotic evil high priestess of Bhaal and Deathstalker and that she was the most trusted follower of Bhaal. She is the only one who has access to his essence of his many children. As more children lost their lives, the more essence she gained and the more powerful she became. She has deceived the Five and with false promises of becoming powerful servants of Bhaal, used Gorion's Ward to do her dirty job of killing the Five for her, and she has deceived all children of Bhaal who were brought to Saradush, which was not a sanctuary, but in fact a deathtrap when Yaga-Shura started to siege this city. This means that Gromnir Il-Khan's paranoid ideas were true after all. But she has betrayed Bhaal as well, as she refuses to start with the rituals required to resurrect him, only to become a goddess of the portfolio of murder herself. She only wants to kill you for your essence, as you turned out to be the most powerful Bhaalspawn of them all. After overcoming the challenge of The Ravager, you must use the teleporter. You will be transported to the actual Throne of Bhaal, which is the start of the final chapter. You will fight Amelyssan, who has started absorbing Bhaal's essence, which has made her very powerful. The battle consists of four battles with Melissan, with three fights with, in order, the Prince of Elemental Air, three Greater Air Elementals, and two Vampiric Mists, then a battle with two Frost Salamanders, the Prince of Ice Elementals, and a couple Greater Ice Elementals, then a battle with a lot of demons, interspersed within. You cannot rest there.
