When I play a character, I usually assemble a dedicated set of dice for them out of my collection - the selection process being guided almost entirely by intuition, i.e., whichever ones just "feel" right for the character. Sometimes it's based on style, sometimes on color, sometimes it's something less tangible. Although I did used to have a pair of loaded D6's, I've never used them in-game. However, I have had a number of dice over the years that were either horribly unbalanced to the point that they had a better than 50/50 chance of coming up on a certain number regardless of how I threw them or were "ski-ball" dice where my skill at rolling them in a certain fashion had a great deal of influence on what numbers they rolled. I once played in a game where one of the other players was being such an annoying tool during the campaign that the rest of us decided to switch out his regular D20 with one of those (and he was almost literally about to flip the table by the time he finally figured it out).</blockquote>
