— Echo of Amelyssan

Echo of Amelyssan is a ghost of the former high priestess of Bhaal. She was the main antagonist of Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal.

Backstory

In life, Amelyssan was once the high priestess of Bhaal. Before his death, Bhaal charged Amelyssan with the ritual needed to bring him back to life. When Bhaal perised in the Time of Troubles, Amelyssan sought to complete her task but not for her fallen god but for herself as she had later discovered that the divine essence of the slain Bhaalspawn would flow throught her, increasing her power.

Amelyssan in her new guise as Melyssan, sought to gather the bhaalspawn by presenting herself as a kind woman that wished to help them. In secret however, she convinced five powerful bhaalspawn: Abazigal a blue dragon, Balthazar a human monk, Illasera an elven fighter, Sendai a drow cleric, and Yaga-Shura a fire giant to unite and help her resurrect Bhaal with the promise that Bhaal would make them his right hand and rule as demigods.

The Five unleashed their armies upon the Sword Coast killing Bhaalspawn and innocents alike in their path. Those bhaalspawn that managed to escape the massacre were guided by Amelyssan to the city of Saradush in Tethyr but the city was encircled by Yaga Shura and his army. It is in Saradush that Amelyssan met Gorion's Ward the famous Bhaalspawn that had defeated Sarevok Anchev, she then began using Gorion's Ward as a tool to achieve her goal. She tricked them into meeting the ruler of Saradush who was also a Bhaalspawn which resulted in latter's death and sent Gorion's Ward to an old abandoned Bhaal temple where Yaga-Shura was raised in order to remove his invulnerability.

Gorion's Ward succeeded in their task but returned too late as Saradush and its inhabitants fell to the invading army however, they and their allies managed to slay Yaga-Shura. Amelyssan conviced them to deal with the rest of the Five and gave up the locations of Abazigal and Sendai while also telling them to use the village of Amkethran ruled by the final member of the Five, Balthazar as their base of operations.

When Bhaal was resurrected a century later after Amelyssan's death, he brought her back as an Echo to serve in the Murder Tribunal along with Abazigal, Illasera and Sendai. However, unlike her fellow Echoes she saw this as a slave sentence and punishment for her betrayal.
