There are a lot of bad things happening all at once, and it’s overwhelming to think about how to meet moments like this. Jean says to focus on 1 or 2 things that you care about, understand fairly well, and are either local or involve a topic where you’re likely to have influence and find community

For Bluesky today, a Blue Knight. Coming soon!

A box filled with six sided dice. They are a sparkling blue with silver swords in place of numbers. The number of swords equals the result.

Our friends at Kenzer & Company are preparing to launch a Kickstarter for this monster compilation of Knights of the Dinner Table. It’s one of the funniest things you will ever read, even if you’ve never picked up the dice. Welcome to the Muncieverse… youtu.be/25cDsLZVQ8Q?...

Today and every April 1st, we honor the chit by including a printed, color-coded set of chits free with every online order! Ok you might be thinking…what? Full explanation (and new dice) at blackoakworkshop.com

A sheet of chits. They are numbered squares representing the sides of a standard polyhedral set of dice. The squares are cut out and placed in cups on the table. To roll a d20 for example, you draw a numbered square from the d20 cup. In the early days of role playing games, dice were in short supply so chits were included in games as emergency number generators.

New dice! The Advanced Dice and Crayon sets take you back to the early days of role-playing games. Color the set with the included crayon, or use your own paint pens. Available in six colors!

The Advanced Dice and Crayon set shown in its retail packaging. A mysterious wizard overlooks a smoking cauldron filled with blue dice.

The Moonbeam 7-dice set. The dice are a dark purple swirl with silver ink. A cat sitting on a crescent moon is on each high face. Moonbeam and her matching dice bag are now available on our website!

We’re at Mythic Con West in Asheville this weekend for some gaming fun! #dice #mythiccon

A giant blue d6 sits on a small table with a sword sticking out of the top like the sword in the stone. The words Mythic Con are on the 6 side. Whoever draws the sword from the d6 is king, not everyone knows that.

Dice towers by Dragon Armor Games. An assortment of handmade wooden dice towers sitting on a vendor table. They have different symbols on the front of each. The one closest to the edge of the table says “I am become …death” with a cute grim reaper. A few of our dice sit in the tray.
