Is the winter cold getting you down? This December, subscribers can feel the heat with the Red Dragon Dice Set! These dice will summon a red dragon to your character sheet when you roll a critical 20, making them the perfect choice for dragonborn, Draconic sorcerers, and more!
This month's subscription perks are automatically unlocked for new and current D&D Beyond subscribers. If you're not yet a subscriber but want to collect these perks, you'll need to subscribe to D&D Beyond before they're gone! (Not sure you want to subscribe? We offer a 30-day free trial subscription!)
Unlock Maps With a Master-Tier Subscription
With D&D Beyond's Maps tool, Master-tier subscribers can quickly create a virtual play space using official maps and tokens from their D&D Beyond book collection.
You can also upload your own maps, apply fog of war, and invite players to join the map based on the D&D Beyond campaign they are in. What's better, only you, as the Dungeon Master, need to have a D&D Beyond subscription. Players can join whether they have an upgraded or free D&D Beyond account and control their tokens as they explore the map.
Maps is currently in Alpha, so expect more features and maps to be added in the future. You can see the sources currently available in our Maps Tutorial.
Where Can You See Collected Perks?
If you are not subscribed, you can see this month's perks on our subscription page. If you're a current subscriber, you'll receive a monthly email that details the perks.
Once you receive your perks, you can find character sheet backgrounds and character portrait frames on your character sheets. Simply go to My Characters and click "View" on one of your characters. From there, click on your character name or "Manage" and then "Change Sheet Appearance" to access the backdrop, frame, and theme customization menus.
Your digital dice collection can be found on the My Dice page.
What Do You Do If You Haven't Received This Month's Perks?
If you're a current subscriber but can't access this month's perks, go into your account settings and click "Sync My Entitlements."
If You Subscribe, Do You Receive Perks From Previous Months?
No, you only receive perks for the months you are subscribed. However, we will occasionally extend the period during which you can receive a particular month's perks.
What Happens to My Perks When My Subscription Ends?
If you receive subscription perks but later end your D&D Beyond subscription, you'll maintain access to the perks you've collected.
What Else Do You Get With a Paid D&D Beyond Subscription?
Our subscription page has all the details, but a Hero- and Master-tier subscription allows you to:
- Share books and other content you've purchased with players in your campaigns (Master-tier)
- Host game sessions in the Maps tool, to run D&D for your players right from your browser
- Create and save as many characters as your dungeon-crawling heart desires
- Save an unlimited number of encounters, to make DM prep easier
