Holy Books & Codes

At some point in his history, Vecna penned a tome known as Ordinary Necromancy. He is also rumored to have made significant additions to the Book of Vile Darkness.
Although not actually penned by him, the Book of Keeping (a book of Yugoloth summoning) is heavily linked with the cult of Vecna, as the cultists have the only known copies that are free of the intentional errors introduced into the book by the fiends that wrote the volume as a trap for would-be summoners.

Divine Symbols & Sigils

Their Symbol is a Hand clutching a human eye.
Their favored weapons are the dagger and quarterstaff.
Hand and Eye of Vecna Vecna's left hand and eye of Vecna's original "mortal" lich form, which has never been replaced in his later more powerful incarnations, are now high-valued and very dangerous magical artifacts. To use the powers of the Hand of Vecna or the Eye of Vecna one is required to cut off one's own corresponding body part and affix Vecna's in its place.
Sword of Kas Vecna created the Sword of Kas for his greatest servant, which contains a "portion of his consciousness."
Other Artifacts

• A number of Vecna's other body parts are minor artifacts, including the First Digit (right thumb), Second Digit (right index finger), Third Digit (right middle finger), Last Digit (right pinky finger), Incisors (a pair of inappropriately named fang-like canines), Molar, Scalp, Skin, Heart, Foot (left), and Right Eye. These artifacts are collectively known as the Fragments of Vecna.
• The Compendium Maleficarum is a book of spells, doctrines, and secrets crafted entirely from bone (even the pages) and penned in blood, that is on par with the Fragments of Vecna.
• The Tome of Shared Secrets is an illustrated bestiary of relic status, with the ability to impart knowledge of dark and evil creatures at the cost of a portion of the user's life force.
• The Rod of the Whispered One, while not nearly so powerful as the Sword of Kas, is another item Vecna crafted to connect himself with his highest lieutenants.
• Tome of the Stilled Tongue is a book that has a tongue nailed straight on the cover.

Tenets of Faith

Being a secretive cult, there are no real collections of Vecnan teachings. However, those that are familiar with Cultist behavior have compiled the following:

• Learn all you can, and keep hidden that which you know. Reveal what pieces you must, but never the whole.
• Express and cultivate the evil within yourself, and in doing so, recognize it in others and exploit them for your own benefit.
• Seed the ruin of all who worship other deities, until only those who kneel before Vecna remain.

Quotes & Catchphrases

"I am Vecna the Unholy. I am god upon Agnesia. I come to play with the toys left by insolent, forgotten ancients and make this world into a new epoch. What this means, however, is an end to all. An end to borders and nations. There will only be the will of Vecna. So. Ask yourselves. You want peace? There is no peace, the way things are. You all bicker and stab and murder in the names of your mothers, your fathers. But this one? Everyone will live, and when they die, that need not be the end, either, under my banner."
