Birth of an Icon: Vecna through Sound, Image and Words

Workshop booking: LINK

Writing a D&D campaign is no easy task—it requires imagination, creativity, and dedication. This storytelling workshop focuses on the creative process behind building a campaign using visuals, sound, and words.

Led by Francesco Mazziotta, illustrator and roleplayer on a mission to bring more attention to the artistic side of gaming, the workshop is dedicated to Vecna. Starting from the stunning illustrations by Senior Artist Katerina Ladon, who worked on Vecna: Eve of Ruin, we’ll explore the elements that turned this character into a true D&D icon.

We’ll dive into the atmospheres inspired by Vecna through the brand-new musical album by Supernova Collective (available on Spotify), and, guided by the timeless wisdom of veteran Dungeon Master Dottor Morgan, retrace the steps that made Vecna not only an unforgettable villain but the perfect narrative focal point for countless adventures.
