[QUOTE="Kinematics, post: 9004014, member: 6932123"] This might be a little better than it looks. It does not give a limit to the number of rerolls per die, just to the total number of reroll dice, which means your typical starting 16 Cha sorcerer could theoretically get a 6+6+6+1d6 (~21.5) total at first level. Here's some Anydice code I put together. I'm not sure it's entirely correct, because I don't know how to return multiple results and keep track of all the rerolls, but it looks reasonable.
