if they both do 1dmg, I don’t see why I’d go through the hassle of acquiring a magical blade forged from a meteor when rusty swords can be picked up right off the ground
I was just trying to push the metaphor, because no matter who manufactured your dice or if you went and killed someone to craft one from their femur, a dice is a dice, so in that metaphor, the rusty sword and the magical blade are the same thing, give the same results, one just looks cooler than the other (rust, f*ck yeah)
Wow, negative likes from that? Guess I shouldn’t have sounded so snarky, lol.
But seriously… the magical blade clearly does more damage. That’s the whole thing.
As far as the dice go, they may have the same numbers, but everyone who has roleplayed knows that some dice are luckier than others. (Though it IS true that that doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with how much you paid for said die.)
i dunno, that rusty blade is just as sharp and a knick will likely cause some nasty infection. meanwhile the meteor blade is just magical and an anti-magic area is just gonna make it a normal blade anyway.
Not JUST magical. The forged properties provide a non-magical to hit and damage bonus, too. (As evidenced by their utility in the real world.) Plus rusty blades have a tendency to snap in half when you use them.
But I’ve apparently hit opposite land on the comment board today… probably because of my intro statement.
Rusty sword all the way. You know where you stand with those. Not some beacon to the farplane that sends out a signal everytime’s it is swung to bring its dark creators ever closer.
Just wait until someone looks in her ears. Dice futures will collapse from the sudden market glut, then rally when everyone realises they don’t want to use/touch/be aware of her eardice.
I actually regret reading this comment and getting the particular mental images that come as a package with it. Touché.
Here, have an upvote, just don’t… um… Yeah, just don’t.
It’s a world with blue, green, red, and yellow people, who spontaneously regenerate after being murdered, and one who just grows D20s in her mouth for no reason, and the thing that you’re stuck on is “But dragons aren’t real”?

Look at this magnificent D20, gaze upon its beauty..
what… rol it? on.. on the bare TABLE?.. nonono, it might get.. scratched or chipped or dented..
depends on which way the bias lands. If its weighted badly and tends to roll 1’s you probably don’t want to be using it. perfect gift for you GM though.

In case you didn’t notice yet… but the “share on facebook” puts the “latest silly” comic in the post instead of the current comic image. Same happens when taking the URL and pasting it in a new facebook post… I think somthing with the pages meta headers 🙂
You can pry my mouth dice from my cold, dead cheeks.

Some weird tonsil stones or maybe she’s a Clepto with Pica and throws em up later, for some reason never noticing she was eating the dice at the game shop. They do sometimes look like candy…

So…right now I see this story going one of two ways. Either 2 is going to roll extremely lucky and everyone is going to fight over the special dice, or he’s going to roll extremely poorly but keep using the dice that fails him every time. I find the second one more likely, but wanna see where it goes.

I think the term here is four-upping. Player 4 is four-upping Player 2 on her dice.

Oh boy, here we go.
What’s with that last panel? 1 is making it look like there’s something odd about mouth dice.
Assdice, OK, I hear you, but mouthdice are fine.
Well, would you rather fight with a rusty sword, or a magical blade forged from a meteor?
Yeah, I thought so.
if they both do 1dmg, I don’t see why I’d go through the hassle of acquiring a magical blade forged from a meteor when rusty swords can be picked up right off the ground
I mean, if the sword made from a fallen star deals 1 damage, it’s probably a https://xkcd.com/1114/ scenario and it’s space gravel.

*a die is a die
my bad, I always forget which one is the singular and which one is the plural form with these mofos

everyone knows the luckier die are the weighted ones

But tethanus is a powerful incentive

The magic sword probably sends all you personal information to inter-dimensional Amazon or something.and shows ads on the blade.
Starlink. 🙂
Does that make impalement adblock?
No.It just runs scrolling ads for Bobs Magic swords and stuff.usually during battle
I dont know. if I could puke out swords on command I’m sure I could find a use for that ability. so lets hear it for mouth swords :p
They are called Teeth. And I have had characters that use them. Bite Attack FTW.
Real warriors fight with a paddle.
im worried about 4 now. just how many does she have in there and how long have they been there?Just wait until someone looks in her ears. Dice futures will collapse from the sudden market glut, then rally when everyone realises they don’t want to use/touch/be aware of her eardice.

Suffer not those who are lost and cannot be found
Mouthdice? I don’t get it. I suspect something is “lost in translation” here.
Dice coming from her mouth, as she apparently vomits dice rather than buying them like us plebs.
Where did he get the real dragon scales?
Any shop that sells real dragon scales. Sheesh, you have to explain everything to kids these days.
Komodo dragon.
What, it counts, fuckers are terrifying!

what… rol it? on.. on the bare TABLE?.. nonono, it might get.. scratched or chipped or dented..
Wouldn’t want to damage the table.
The louder the *clacking* your dice make when rolled, the more powerful you are.
Shiny rock go click clack, says the goblin brain.
I’d be mostly worried that such an elaborate design might not be weighted properly. Hard to test the dense ones, after all.
Isn’t that the whole point?
depends on which way the bias lands. If its weighted badly and tends to roll 1’s you probably don’t want to be using it. perfect gift for you GM though.

I’d rather go on Facebook and share the post directly from CAD’s profile in there. 🙂
Paying that much for a single D20 that is a bad roll away from being exiled during a campaign seems extravagant.
If you aren’t publicly shaming your bad dice, how will they ever learn to be good dice?!?
It will never fail you if you never roll it. It just sits in its box looking glorious as a regal figurehead for all other dice to to aspire to.
New side effect of COVID I take it.
Yay. The Four Stooges.
Are we sleeping on the fact that apparently in the players’ world frickin dragons are real?
Are you saying they’re NOT real in your world?
Dang kids should stop playing with their phones and go visit a zoo or something. Poachers are already making them near extinct.
There was a point where I stopped asking questions about player 4 and decided to just roll with it. I think it’s when she was introduced.
I bet 4 is a great fuck.
Are you saying you’d like to… *ahem* Roll those dice?
“Teeth”. Beware!
You can pry my mouth dice from my cold, dead cheeks.

I feel attacked.
Gotta roll to confirm the crit, though.
