Here we are: Christmas Eve. The time has come for the final tally of the roleplaying game dice that came in my specialist advent calendar this year.
We ended up with a very ordered spread:
- 3d4
- 3d6
- 3d8
- 3d10
- 3d12
- 3d20
- Metal d20
- 3d% (that is, d10s with faces marked 10, 20, 30 etc)
And a pin badge along with, today, a plastic miniature of a mindflayer/illithid
This novelty advent calendar was - unsurprisingly given its contents - the perfect pre-Christmas present from Rachel... and has definitely set a precedent for future festive favours.
The standout piece has to be the hefty, spikey, metallic d20. Unfortunately, some of its delicate numbering is nigh-on illegible to my old man's eyes and I can't help feeling it would work better as a slingshot projectile for taking down Biblical giants from Gath.
