Tenets of Faith
Follow the Subtle Path, forever and always. Do nothing blatantly or obviously.
Let none know your true nature, and reveal your secrets to no one.
Nurture the seeds of darkness.
The goal of all life is death. Embrace this fundamental truth, and Defile, Desecrate, and Corrupt the dead until they walk again.
Undeath is perfection, and servitude to Vecna. To exist in Undeath and reject his name is blasphemy.
Reject all gods but Vecna.

History
It was not until the height of the Age of Barbarity that he was horrifically slain by the Arch-Lich Vecna, The Arch-Lich during his time as a mortal spellcaster...in a tremendous feat of mortal magic, Vecna cast a massive spell and tore Welun from his divine realm, dragging him down to the Material Plane, where he dueled the Moon God and slew him atop Blistersnap Glacier...and in doing so, killed Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon's only son and absorbed his divine essence to ascend into Godhood.
He is the one spoken of only in whispers. He whose name gives him power. To whisper his name alone in a dark room is to invite destruction upon yourself and your family, and the destruction and perversion of all you hold dear. He is the Godkiller. The Arch-Lich. The Planescape's Greatest Necromancer. One whose very existence is a threat to all gods. All things. He is Vecna.
