D&D General Vecna and Kas and the Book of Vile Darkness. WotC lore you should know.

I'll keep an eye on it.

Well I gotta hand it to ya, that’s funny.

(It is kind of funny that it's not applied to everything, though. There's no "Archbards" or "Archmonks" in D&D.)

Sounds of me rapidly scribbling a note to include an Archbard in my next campaign...

I'll keep an eye on it.

I'm going to keep that joke in hand for future use.

Perkins dressed up as Strahd for a live episode of his Dice, Camera, Action streamed campaign at a con back in 2018.

Oh eye see what ya did there.
Dint let it get to yer head.

And Archdruid, Archpriest, Archdevils, and probably a lot of other examples. I was just giving a few to make my point, not making a complete list of all uses of "Arch" meaning "Super-duper powerful version of normal creature" in D&D.

I know. I've just always loved the Archmage as a title and wanted to toss it out.

(It is kind of funny that it's not applied to everything, though. There's no "Archbards" or "Archmonks" in D&D.)

Well, monks have traditionally been Grand Masters, and I'm sure @Snarf Zagyg could enumerate all the reasons that the Archbard doesn't exist.

This is my favorite version of Strahd.

In the new Ravenloft there is a living ventriloquist dummy telling he is the true Strand, it is the torment of the king Doerdon, dark lord of Risibilos. It would be perfect as a toy, or a skin in Fortnite.

Three things: First, that statue is beyond excellent! Second, how likely could there be a Vecna-themed AP this year that could get announced at the Wizards event? (probably low)

Third, how about a big Vecna AP that gets released with the updated rules for the 50th anniversary?

Well, a Vecna themed AP is not impossible...

Five out of the Six Perfect Copies of the Book of Vile Darkness

This seems like a hint for 6th edition somehow.

But also, does the book from the 3rd D&D movie count as a perfect copy or no?
