Who becomes the new lord of murder?

hi everyone.
I would like to know your personal idea on who would become the next lord of murder, if, well, charname died.
There are two sceneries that one could imagine:
> if he died at sarevok's hand
> if he died at irenicus's hand.
I would like to know your idea about the second scenery.
Now, I point my personal idea.
If Irenicus killed the children of Bhaal successfully (no matter if at asylum or at the tree) I think he would have become the next lord of murder, and not only that, but before that, he probably would have first joined the seldarine ranks as a dark reflection of them.
Given that he would actually achieve divine status (or at least, a power close to that?) by draining the tree, I think that there would be a new pawn moving, and Amelyssan, I doubt very much she would know of what Irenicus achieved...
Or would she?
So, I think that the showdown would go like that. Irenicus would have made himself probably hidden from everything /he would just retire into his personal plane) and would have actually waited the things to sort out.
I'm actually uncertain what would be the next moves Amelyssan would do, but surely she would have asked the help of some gods, just to be pointed into the right direction (e.g Cyric)
Then she would actually plan for the bhaalspawn to plot against each other, until the final showdown would happen, and it would end with Irenicus actually trashing her so bad that he would squish her like if she was a mosquito.
And he would actually end it with edgy remarks, knowing Irenicus.
It was Child's play
By the way, was it ever explained by the Solar actually helped you? I mean, was there a particular reason or a player perspective that amounted some credibility? I don't buy the fact that you were the prophetized heir of Bhaal to get his throne.

Irenicus' plans are much more thorough, much more complex, and broader in scope. He manipulates large groups of people in order to get what he wants, from conquering an island run by other mages (not exactly easy people to outsmart) and recruiting an entire drow city to lay siege to Suldanessellar on his behalf.
Melissan would have no reason to be aware of Irenicus' plans (note that Rillifane himself was surprised to see Jon-bon in Suldanessellar, so even the gods couldn't foresee it), and so Irenicus would become a god without her interference. If Irenicus' godhood prevented Melissan's plans from coming to fruition, I see no reason why Melissan would be able to overcome him. At that point, Irenicus would be a god, and he would have allies in the form of vampires, demons, rakshasas, drow, and probably Lolth herself, given their mutual hatred of the elves. Melissan would still just be a high-level priest with some poor peasant followers.
@AstroBryGuy Would you kindly explain why you've chosen Imoen amongst everyone?
people may hate me for this but i think it might be Melissan. she just manipulates the five most likely making balthazar kill the other 4 and have no one to stop her and win.
Then BG2 begins. Sarevok is captured and being experimented on by some seemingly powerful mage. Then some attack happens and Tamoko frees him. Soon he finds his old companions, Angelo and Tazok, locked in cages in the same room. Thus begins his adventure.
In ToB he resurrects CHARNAME and lets him join his party. Also for some reason Tamoko is now a Bhallspawn.
