It must contain fantastic luck. A glass object surviving for almost 2000 years!


For D&D


"I have one hitpoint left, armed with a rusty dagger, in a dark cavern, fighting an adult dragon and I need a crit. Time for THE DIE!"


For T2K


"I'm staring down the barrel of a T-80, crewed by my worst enemies, and I'm armed with a 30 year old RPG with no sight. Time for the DIE!"

Not my offspring though. Any of them start playing anything D20 and I'll snuff them myself.
