Does anyone have any knowledge on what these people would have worn? If they had any special items for themselves only? Did they have markings of Bhaal on their skin?

Priestly Vestments:
According to Faiths & Avatars, Bhaalyn wore full ceremonial robes and cowls of deep purple or of black with violet streaks of random size, shape, and placement. The interior linings of the cowl and garments were always deep black, and a black veil was worn over the face to make the cowl seem empty to an observer. High-ranking priests sometimes added a scarlet sash to this costume for easy recognition when ill-lit rituals were taken place. Curve-bladed ceremonial daggers (threat them as normal daggers, except for their shape) were worn at the belt, but only High Primates, Primates, or members of the Brethren of the Keen Strike employed them in combat or slaying; all other Bhaalists used them only for rituals.
Adventuring Garb:
When adventures were undertaken or guard duty performed, Bhaalyn wore full armor of the best type they could obtain or were allowed to wear. Black capes and black leggings usually accompanied the serviceable armor.
Do you know if they had any particular markings/tattoos/scarification? Perhaps with the symbol of Bhaal on them?
Tattoos and scarifications are much more closely tied to the clergies of Talona than any other pantheon.
