Measuring 4.13 2.50.02 inches and weighing 22g (0.7 oz), it's both durable and lightweight. And given his connection to the deadly memetic nature of the play, it's only fitting Hastur's represented as a bookmark. I sometimes get these as gifts, but I kept this bookmark for myself.</p><p></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]386717[/ATTACH]</p><h3><a href="https://amzn.to/3Ycz58A" target="_blank">Cthulhu Dice Spinner ($20)</a></h3><p>The larger spinner has a winged and horned figure at the center (a Hound of Tindalos?), with a clear arrow pointing behind and above it. This doubles as both a magical symbol and is really important to determining what number you "rolled." There's a font that seems to be Masonic font (with a line instead of a dot), spelling clockwise from the arrow: GNYFIIUDAZGMBTIUDQZ. Which is to say, nothing. The smaller spinner reads "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn." which translates to "In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming." Unlike the larger spinner, the smaller spinner has the Necronomicon Gate sigil created by Khem Caigan for the Simon Necronomicon in 1977. </p><p></p><p>[ATTACH=full]386718[/ATTACH]</p><h3><a href="https://amzn.to/3Nh65WN" target="_blank">Sci-Fi Armory ($30)</a></h3><p>The first thing to note about this terrain piece is that it's one solid block, with three other accessories. The print is surprisingly clean and has a metallic sheen to it. It could do with some shading to bring out the details and make it look more weathered, but it's a really handsome piece. There are doors on either side, but nobody's getting in or out of this thing, as it's one solid piece. A shame, because it's hollow (and you could conceivably just put miniatures underneath it to represent "being inside" but then you obviously wouldn't be able to see them).</p><p></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]386719[/ATTACH]</p><h3><a href="https://amzn.to/3NiUQNy" target="_blank">Martian Dice Set ($70)</a></h3><p>If you're not too worried about dice balance, dice can be essentially any shape. Once you break the polyhedral dice paradigm, dice can be whatever you choose so long as it has enough faces to generate random numbers. This set is modeled on a Martian base, with black and red. The 20-sided and 100-sided are disks, which I've seen before. The 12-sided is basically a 12-sided, with futuristic lettering. The 10- and 8-sided are cylinders, which makes sense. Where things get weird is the six sided, which is a flat spinner like the 20- and 100-sided. This will take some getting used to. Similarly, the four sided is a rocket, which you basically just roll around like a cylinder.</p></blockquote><p></p>
