No Trick, All Treat: Get 4 Spooky Character Sheet Backdrops This October

Set the scene for a spine-tingling session this October! D&D Beyond subscribers can cloak their character sheets in 4 baleful backdrops inspired by eerie encounters and atmospheric adventure. It’s the perfect way to bring the season’s spooky spirit to your table—no trick-or-treating required!

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!)

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?
