For the class action to transform into this creature, see Slayer (Class Action).

Slayer is a unique form that especially dedicated Bhaalspawn may assume in Baldur's Gate 3.

My Chosen. My Slayer. Violence incarnate. You will become a testament in blood.
Bhaal awarding a dedicated Bhaalspawn for their unwavering favor.


Violence incarnate

The Slayer form is a powerful ability granted to the most dedicated follower of Bhaal. It usually appears as a form Orin the Red takes during her boss battle, and functions very similarly to Wild Shape or being Polymorphed. The user of the form takes on all the statistics of the Slayer, and all of their actions are replaced by the Slayer's own. With a powerful multiattack, a distance-closing leap, a devastating single attack, as well as an action that can inflict bleeding, the Slayer is an especially powerful form allowing the user to tear through their enemies with ease.

Concentration Icons.png Spoiler warning! This section reveals details about the story of Baldur's Gate 3.

Previous appearances

The Slayer Form is a returning ability present in Baldur's Gate 2. It first appeared in Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn as an ability granted midway through the game.

The Slayer is only one of three avatars of Bhaal: a shapeshifting one called Kazgoroth, a human-sized one named the Slayer, and a giant named the Ravager. While only the Slayer appears within Baldur's Gate 3, the Ravager appears in Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal as the protagonist's "taint" due to being a Bhaalspawn, while Kazgoroth is a separate creature, described as either a minion or Avatar of Bhaal in some circumstances.
