Why would Bane, god of tyranny, seemingly give up his greater god status to become a mortal again just so he could meddle more in mortal affairs? I suppose the same question is true of Bhaal and Myrkul, who have died before too.

Not dumb, but…we mortals have seen that Bane is rash, impetuous, and arrogant. He’s no patient, long-term schemer, but lives in the present moment (he wants results NOW). And his pride often makes him over-estimate his own prowess, and ignore his own faults. 2)
However, the fact that all of the Dead Three have elected to stay in the mortal world makes me think they're up to something. Like @Rashamonn, I think it's a bid for more power. NOT masterminded by Bane, but irresistible to him because he hungers for more power.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 2, 2020
Well, the trio do like their schemes, that’s for sure. And like you guys have said, these gods may know something that we mortals do not. I also wonder how old Jergal feels about this situation now given his history with them. Jergal thinks eight or nine steps ahead of everyone else. Where other gods have a Plan B and C, he has a web of plans for every letter of the alphabet, at all times–and his chief entertainment is setting them in motion.#Realmslore
