Sarevok's Biography
When asked about his past, SAREVOK has little to add beyond what you already know. He grew up a homeless urchin in the streets until he was adopted by his foster father into the Iron Throne. He studied the art of intimidation, the cruelest and most brutal styles of combat, in order to become a Deathbringer that could paralyze an opponent in melee through fear alone...as well as sometimes killing the most powerful of opponents in a single, massive blow. Sarevok had an ambition that did not die even when his body did...as you well know, now. Sarevok keeps mostly to himself, but at odd moments you can see him staring in your direction, his face an emotionless mask. Part of you wonders if your brutal half-brother ponders what might have been...
Best Weapon for Sarevok

Sarevok Alignment Change
As forseen by Tamoko BG1, in Throne of Bhaal of Baldur's Gate 2 Sarevok can be redeemed through dialogue that changes his alignment from Chaotic Evil to Chaotic Good.
CHARNAME's mother and Gorion:
Child-Sarevok then steps in and adds:
This dialogue segment is noteworthy in that it allows us to empathize with the conqueror-villain of Baldur's Gate. Charname can acknowledge a certain debt owed to Sarevok (his Fate could have been Charname's), and Charname is even able to redeem Sarevok (and Viconia) by shifting his alignment to Chaotic Good through various companion-based dialogues.
There are several dialogues in regard to Sarevok's redemption, but this lengthy third one is crucial, and the thread can easily be broken by a single "incorrect" response, so I doubt many players even know about the potential for redemption:

Sarevok: Temple of Bhaal

Here is a variation in which Sarevok alludes to the evil within:
