Also, in official canon has there ever been a deity who successfully came back from the dead? Either in Faerun, Greyhawk, or any other setting, but I am more interested in Greyhawk and Faerun at the moment.

Thanks for the tip. I just read up on him in detail, but it seems he never really died to begin with. Although one of the three did come back.

-More or less. Bhaal implanted tiny little sparks of divinity in all of the Bhaalspawn, and theoretically, when only one Bhaalspawn was left among the living, that individual would become Bhaal.
