Description

The Book of Vile Darkness (AFR 91) is a legendary artifact from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. It produces 2/2 black Zombie tokens at your end step if you lost 2 or more life that turn and can be tapped and exiled with Eye of Vecna and Hand of Vecna to create Vecna, an indestructible legendary 8/8 black Zombie God that gains triggered abilities from the exiled cards. This card supports a graveyard- and artifact-themed strategy by combining token generation with a powerful game-ending creature creation combo.
