Bane, Bhaal and Myrkul were three mortals who became gods by absorbing parts of Jergal's portfolio, right?
But when? When did this happen? |

I'd imagine it is around that vague period after the Fall of Netheril and the Dawn Cataclysm |

There's no specific date for the ascension of Bane, Bhaal and Myrkul. However, an entry in Lands of Intrigue, concerning the worship of Bane and Myrkul around -88 DR suggests the ascension occured sometime before that point.
For more, see Bane's entry in Faiths & Avatars.
There's also a few more details in the section for Borem's dagger in Faith & Pantheons.

It's cool. I somehow suspected there wouldn't be a clear answer. Maybe I'll pose the question to Ed... |

I don't think this has been stated anywhere.
I seem to remember Jergal staying in power throughout the history of Netheril, but I am not sure. There is also the possibility of this story being mythological, as it was in legend form in Powers and pantheons; the three dark powers could therefore be outside powers that supplanted Jergal. I know I am not helping much here, but I don't believe there is a clear answer to your question. |
