There were not a few who discovered (or rediscovered) the existence of Dungeons & Dragons thanks to ‘Stranger Things’ and the famous Demogorgon. However, in later seasons they bet on a new villain: a certain Vecna that sounded to the more adult fans but left many doubts to those who picked up the books for the first time. Who was Vecna? And why should he be feared? Now, finally, Wizards of the Coast has set to work to bring the character back into the spotlight before the last season of Netflix.
Vecna’s Flakes
Now, the villain will appear in the new campaign for characters from level 10 to 20, ‘Vecna: Eve of ruin’, where he will try to destroy the game’s multiverse. And yes, that includes Dragonlance, Planescape, Spelljammer or Eberron (even that one you made on your own one day) in a manic race throughout the different hidden places of D&D. In order to do that, players have to be fully immersed and soaked in what it means to play in order to not hesitate for a moment when preparing a fireball or wasting time at the tavern (being D&D, frankly, it’s the thing to do).
Rarely has the world of D&D been in such danger: in fact, the only way to defeat Vecna will be to work with three well-known archmages to rebuild the Staff of the Seven Parts. Perhaps then they will have a chance against the most evil being that has ever set foot in the multiverse. It will be 256 pages full of enemies, twists, and -obviously- deaths. Vecna has returned, and promises to be one of those unforgettable campaigns. Get your 20-sided dice ready, the adventure awaits you.
