D&D 2E [2e] Monster Mythology Update Project

Vecna Reborn from 2e Ravenloft does not add a lot mechanically, the clerical Vecna cultists in the adventure are just evil clerics. Other cultists are fighters and thieves.

The Late 2e Greyhawk Players guide has very little on Vecna as an imprisoned Demigod of Greyhawk

"Imprisoned gods: Tharizdun, Vatun and Vecna are imprisoned. Their priests get up to 2nd-level spells only."

An interesting sidebar to the part about Vecna's worshipers (outside of Ravenloft) not being able to receive spells above 2nd level (which contradicts, if I recall correctly, a line in Domains of Dread), is that Die Vecna Die! introduces a magic item called "knucklebones of channeling," which allow Vecna's worshipers to receive higher-level spells. It's not given a sidebar or anything like that, but instead turns up in the stat blocks of various NPCs in the first part of the adventure.
