Your favorite die

[BookTenTiger]

What is your one favorite die that you have or use?

Maybe it has sentimental value. Maybe it's made of an interesting material. Maybe it's just really old.

My favorite die is a wooden d6 I carved during a high school camping trip some 23 years ago. My friends and I brought board games but forgot a die, so I started whittling the top of a walking stick / branch and I finished on the last day right before we packed up. My friend stuck a metal marshmallow poker in the fire and burned pips onto the die. It rolls pretty wobbly and I doubt it's fair but I've still got the die to this day!

I bought these from Q-Workshop a few years ago and all my d4 problems seemed to melt away. Well, mostly needing to slide the pointy ones off the table to be able to pick them up.

I'll give two answers. The first is the "rhomboid" D12s that I first saw with Daggerheart. a D12 that's a new design? COOL. The other answer is a set of "dice for old people" that I bought. They have BIG numbers that are easy to see. Not only can I read them, but you can see them quite well at a distance. That way, when those rare cases happen where I'm rolling well, everyone knows I'm not faking it.

My favorite dice of all time are the old GameScience hard-edged d20s with 0-9 twice and a + next to half. I’ve had several in different colors over the years. Easily the best dice I’ve ever had.

Same. The orange one in the middle is exactly as you describe, and is one of my favorite. I do also like my Moldvay dice set, and I have a pair of jade d6s I got in Alaska (not pictures) that are also my top go to dice.
