(David Bryn's Uplift series reference) 2) Intimidate your dice and torture a poorly performing die in front of the others to show them the price of failure. When waterboarding your dice, make sure to add a drop of dish soap to the solution to break the surface tension so that no life giving air bubbles can be trapped in the grooves of it's numbers. When using a magnifying glass in the sun to more deeply and painfully etch a side's number into the die, make sure to avoid breatheing any smoke or fumes given off as pleas for mercy. 3) DM's only: Channel the necrotic energy of your body fighting itself into your dice while you undergo a strong allergic reaction. Remember to seek medical attention before anaphylactic shock sets in. Options 1 and 2 has mixed results. Option 3 has created for me a blue d20 that is feared by all (but only while being used by the DM). Just this past sunday, i pulled it out and one of the players asked "Is that your crit die?" to which i replied "yep, let's see how it's feeling today" and rolled a 20 on the first first toss. Another player on the other side of the table immediately said "i swear i'm going to take that die and burn it!". That session, it rolled high for monsters and crit several times, and 1s and 2s for any roll benefitting a player. Unfortunately, it's evil powers of darkness are only available to DM use, as a player, i can't roll sqaut with it. It all started last year when I started to break out in allergic reaction from something. I was DMing, so i went to the game anyway, as I thought it was just a tiny rash. During play, my body turned against itself, skin turning into large puffy regions. While this went on, I rolled 10+ crits, and non crits were 17+ on the die. 7 of the crits were against 1 player. Also, the damage die of non crits managed to roll max or near max damage. Was a fun time for a DM <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Afterwards, about 1am, i went to the hospital and the doc said "good thing you got in, if it covered your chest, you'd be toast". From that point on, this blue d20 is the bane of players! Mwuahahahahahahah</blockquote>
