There is zero chance that someone would just go on the internet and lie.

It’s not “fake” so much as it is an obvious joke.

There are not too many choices if you are a fan of platonic solids

That’s a really shitty d12

Or the real life prismatic spray if you throw them really hard at someone’s face and eyes. If two of them land into the persons sight globes point first, it will cause blindness.

Platonic solids exclude the Rhombic Dodecahedron, so who needs them?

D4s are annoying. They’re the only die without a top face, so it’s hard to read the number, and since the faces slant inwards it can be hard to pick them up.

On the other hand, it’s satisfying that the typical RPG dice contain the 5 platonic solids. If I had to play a game where a D4 was used often (unlike in say D&D where it’s rare), I’d probably go with one of the alternate D4 shapes. Even if you prefer platonic solids, you can just use an 8-sided die and renumber 5-8 as being 1-4 again.

You laugh, but…

Please NSFW or spoiler… that’s gnarly.

Oh god, that’s horrible!

That’s a 1 isn’t it?

Ah, sorry. Is there coding to mark comments as NSFW, or do you mean applying the Spoiler coding to comments?

It is, and they’re lucky it’s only 1 damagetoo. NPC’s don’t have a very large HD pool after all.

Just a way to prevent auto loading the image.

Wouldn’t that change the probabilty curve? I guess it could be nice if you wanted to limit critical success and failure but it might reduce the sense of randomness.

So is there a war between the number on top and the number on bottom d4?

Don’t be a baby

D4 with a top face:

Nah dude, this is legit, I lived through the tail end of the satanic panic years, those FBI raids were no joke. We used to scatter a layer of d4s along the stairs leading the basement, right before the tripwire that releases a full paint can on a string. Every player was issued a smoke bomb before the start of the game so we could make a clean getaway while the officers were distracted.
