“I lost my d4” something that makes even the most experienced player shiver in fear.

[pablogarciagamez]

Losing a d4 is like the little piece of glass left after cleaning broken glass, you only find them when someone gets hurt XD

2000 sets are already owned with 2000 sets well on their way.

Stepping on a d4, the only thing more painful then stepping on lego

[elliedereyna]

My first session as a GM with my new party went kinda like this...

Player: I have no dice
Me: here (throws them a bag of dice)
Player 2: Me neither
Me: (throws dice at them)
Me: who else has no dice?
(Everyone raises their hand)
Me: here you all go (throws them all a bag each)
Player 3: how many dice do you even have??
Me: YOU COULDN'T EVEN BEGIN TO FATHOM

Funny thing: Clerics can use all the dice. HEAR ME OUT!!!
d4: Healing Word.
d6: Cure Wounds.
d8: Hit points.
d10: Inflict Wounds.
d12: Toll of the Dead.
d20: Everything else.
Percentiles: Lets be honest, they are gonna use it for Divine Intervention.

"You know that game I was telling you about?"
"The one about sacrificing your friends, right?"
"Ri- wait, what?"
"What?"
"No, Dungeons and Dragons."

Theres a difference?

You forgot to mention that once you roll a d4, it is pretty much impossible to pick it up from the table.

[homicidalzebraguppy]

You forgot to mention how once you get one set of dice, you will inevitably find yourself getting more because you need them and no you don't have to explain why

[Magnusdead]

I am a dice goblin, no dice are too obscure to not collect. I don't care how much pain they have caused my characters, they are all precious and will be forever in my collection and rotated for use. DICE FOR THE DICE GODS!!!

[lemmetalkaboutthis]

Me : looks at dice I bought specifically for characters even tho they were online campaigns
Me:.... But the goblin soul is not satisfied by virtual dice, they do not klick klack like the math rocks, you see

[ideamaster]

You should make a skit about coming up with skit material for future videos, but is actually a funny skit itself.

[dew-it]

"This is a d3..."
"What the hell is that thing!"
"A d3."
"yeah, but why is it shaped like that?!"
"ive got more."
"No no no!"
*begins putting out dice*
" a d5, a d7, a d9, a d11, a d13..."
"who will use these!?!?"
"probably no one. Anyway wanna see a d1"
"NO!"

[danielcruz]

*joins a new campaign*

DM: “welcome our new player to this campaign, so you’ve played dnd a little bit right?”

Me: *pours out 30 sets of dice* “yeah, just a little”

[meh.]

I have one pair of dice I like to call the "cursed set" and as the GM I like to give that set to every new player. It always rolls low no matter what. Anyway so one time I gave that set to one of my new players (my sister's boyfriend) first thing he wanted to do was punch a kid and he rolled a nat 20.

"Sacrificing our friends."
Edit 1: "oh good, you found it."
Edit 2: dice story, my dad's friend who is now sadly passed away kept dice in a container and separated them by high roll, low roll, and neutral roll, would ask wether he needed to roll high or low and used the corresponding dice.

[OneShotQuesters]

Three things:

One: When I threw the dice at my forehead, the dice landed on the edge of my screen protector and broke the protector #rip

Two: I am BEYOND proud of the Harry Potter Joke

Three: Should I ask my wife out on a date? I think she is cute and kinda like her....

Fun fact:
The design of the d4 was based of a way for players to protects themselves back in the Satanic Panic, where people would raid/attack DND sessions. The solution was to provide players protection, and with what else but a trap, namely caltrops, fitting for DND. The caltrops were contained in the DND products purchased, and were painted and inscribed with numbers, so they could hide amounts the actual dice without raising suspicion, unless you had already fallen victim to them. They were then scattered on the ground before the session to create an obstacle for any attackers, giving the players much needed time to escape/hide. Eventually the caltrops were incorporated into the game as the d4, and while the points are much duller, they still retain spike shape of the caltrops, and that is why the d4 is so painful to step on.

You see you have dice goblins who collect any old dice. I am a dice kobold. My collection is expansive but I am very choosey about the dice I add to the collection. No kobold would buy a mystery bag just to have 10 lbs of dice. No we carefully decide which set will be number 23, line them all up to admire their beauty, and then curse because a single d12 rolled away somewhere and you have to stop everything, count all the dice, make sure nothing else is missing, and go find that precious d12 that rolled away.
