D&D 5E Get The Vecna Dossier Free At D&D Beyond

WotC is offering a free product which you can claim by signing into D&D Beyond, including Vecna’s 5E statistics.

The dossier includes the stat block plus a half page or so of lore. Vecna's stat block is a CR 26 undead wizard, prior to the fallen paladin (and former bodyguard to the lich) Kas's betrayal. That means he still has his hand and eye, although he is a time traveller and can appear in different worlds and eras.

The archlich Vecna is one of the most iconic villains of Dungeons & Dragons lore. And now you can bear witness to his necromantic magic with the Vecna Dossier! Available at no cost with your D&D Beyond account, this thrilling supplement details the legacy and statistics of the Undying King himself!

This claim unlocks the contents of this promotional supplement for use with D&D Beyond, including the supplement in digital format in the game compendium and in the searchable listings, character builder, encounters, and digital sheet.

To be honest, I do care a lot about the very many other people who have very real problems. It's just people with trivial problems of their own making that I don't care about.

I assumed that you did, really, and I sympathize. My only issue in this case would be that I wish everyone was a little more charitable to each other.

Agreed with the body language. Disagree that it's a valid way of speaking.

Disagree that any use of hyperbole for emphasis is valid? I mean, you can object to it, I suppose (a lot of people do) and spend time arguing with people, or you can, say, accept that they're sometimes going to overstate their points. (Either by accident or on purpose).

If you know that it's overstated, and they know that it's overstated, there's no sense in calling it out. (Aside from, perhaps, to acknowledge that you're both on the same page). I think we generally hold everyone to too high a standard when it comes to writing their thoughts. Professional writers can't always be clear, why should we idiot posters be any good at it?

What’s the problem here?

if you are okay with D&D beyond there is none... but make no mistake they are NOT giving away a product or two for free... they are putting free things on there to get access to as much product as possible... you ARE the product (just like twitter and Facebook)

The cynic in me agrees with your sentiments, though the linguistic and logical side of me points out that perhaps people should be held to a higher standard (exceptions being made, of course, being for those who are not speaking in their primary language). Proper grammar and language matters and words have actual meaning that should not be devalued. Though I've always been the sort to be quick to point out someone's being illogical, hypocritical, or contradictory in their words, even to their face. It doesn't exactly get me invited to many parties, as it were, but I won't change that ever.

Well, you could try, "I object to your use of hyperbole to make your point, but let's leave that behind and tackle the issue..."

On the internet we tend to get

"This problem is HUGE!"
"Nuh-uh! It's TINY!"
"No, HUGE!"
"No, TINY!"

When everyone can see that the problem is simply biggER to first person, whether it's ultimately big or not.

Apparently today is the last day to get Vecna for free. Why in the world would that be?

So that people who heard about it late now have to pay for it.

It just strikes me as asinine.

Because he likes to keep his secrets?

ugh... so a new to the game player next week has to pay to access what I got for free cause they are new... not a great look for WotC, but a reason they may not want it to be pdf and easy to share.

Where did you see this? Nevermind, I just noticed it on DnD Beyond's home page
