    My first DM gifted everyone in the party a set of dice. He explained that it's tradition that someone's first tarot deck should always be a gift, and he liked that idea, so since it was everybody's first campaign, he gifted us all our first set of dice.

      I think it's really cool your DM decided to do this, that's really nice of them!
      I just wanted to add- the tarot thing doesn't have to be that way. There are people who choose to go by this and that's fine, but a lot of people buy their own first tarot deck (including me) and that's absolutely fine as well. As someone who has read tarot for 20 + years I just feel the need to point out when I see someone mention this that it doesn't HAVE to be that way. Too many people are afraid it's disrespectful to buy their own. This is my own personal hill 😅

We got a random urge to play d&d and the boys were both disappointed when they realised we didn’t have anything to play... except that I had enough dice for everyone and my character on me, the other player had his character sheet on his phone and the DM had enemy stats on him.

    I loved this, mostly because I collect dice myself, and when I'm not picking dice based on their daily performance (I do a roll off before almost every session), I pick them based on my character, the setting, or my current mood. Some of my favorites are:
    Crystal Caste (I have Malachite set (discontinued) and a Hybrid Translucent set in green) - love the precious stone and the crystal shape they do many sets in
    Dispel Dice (I haven't been able to score any yet) - Some of the most beautiful and well crafted dice I've ever seen or touched...trying to be patient waiting for a chance to get more
    Q-workshop (I have Elvish, Dwarvish, and Druid)- I love the themes and colors, not to mention that they are very durable...

    Morgan Ironwolf, my DND character from my second hundred years, lifted her head and said, "Nice Collection." Two whole words in a row, you really impressed her! She once went through two back to back battles without saying anything. She was real good at the raised eyebrow and the shrug.
    I really liked the way you expressed the beauty of your dice beyond their functionality.
    Good job.
    Now for the side bit that has nothing to do with dice.
    There are several companies that make Purple eyelashes. One has sparkly dots that look like glitter but are done with paint so they won't get glitter in your eyes. With that gorgeous shade of tint, in your hair, the soft lavender would be striking.
    I'm old and have to now live vicariously through young folks.
    Also, have you seen the elf ear cuffs? Made of silver wire with gemstones/crystals. If they had those in the 70s I'd still be wearing them now!!

    Have played AD&D 2e since the 1980s. Still use the same set of Clear Orange dice. We always called them Gem Dice. But now that's something else. My D20 rolls a crazy amount of natural 20s. My DM tried to ban it...! They are old friends, I couldn't Adventure without them...

  • @krystalskye949
    @krystalskye949 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been collecting dice since 1994. I also keep a set of dice for every character I have played, and I have separate dice for when I DM. While I have a large collection of sets of dice, I don't have any of the custom dice from Etsy or such. Yet. I have the "normal" size rainbow metal dice like the minis you showed....and I now MUST acquire a set of those minis. I even have a set of 4 D6s that are Barbie Doll size (I used to use those primarily for character creation). They are so tiny though, and easy to lose, so now they mainly sit unused, except when I show them to people who've not seen such tiny dice before. I loved your video, and I do think I also have the teal frosted Chessex set (I have SO MANY sets of Teal-Coloured dice, as Teal and Violet are my favourite colours).

  • @wreng3213

    Dice are awsome! My Dad played DnD when I was little and his set was mix and match. We would paw through them for hours if he didn't catch us... my favorite was a pale wooden d10. Idk why.

  • @itsturtlefacemydudes
    @itsturtlefacemydudes 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    This was really nice! As someone who's only started playing DND last year and only owns one set of dice, this was really cool to watch!
    As for that one set of dice, I *love them* very much. I bought them in at the 'Vintage Stock' store inside a real big mall in my area, the entire set is a mix of translucent sky blue and a marbley white. The mix is really wispy and leads into each other to the point that they straight up look like a cloudy sky and thus I call them my sky dice. They're really fitting for my first dice as my first DND character is a human druid who has light blue hair, loves nature, and has basically adopted our Kenku Bard who's only wish is to reach the skies. I plan on buying at least two more for the next two characters I'm already/am planning to play as. Need to find me a set that fits my Eladrin Sorcerer who's slowly turning into an ice dragon 'cause of a curse and a set that fits my half elf fighter who's the adopted son of some merchants and is only on his adventure so he can get him some independance. So basically need me some magicy-looking icy/dragon dice and some seafaring dice XD

    I'm always blown away at the variety of dice, now. Back in the day we used to go ape shit over transparent, colored dice (a "clear" step or two up from the six-dice set that came with the D&D Basic boxed set). They were still cheap and get gouged if you shook your dice bag too much, and we'd kill a little time by coloring in the numbers with crayon (if you don't like the color, just rub it out with a paper towel).

One of the sets that I got has a sorta galaxy kind of vibe, with purples, blues, and pinks all swirling together with sparkles and is my absolute favourite that I got. All of your dice are SO pretty and I seriously want more of my own even more now. Loved this video!

  • @chrishandy9172

    "Dice sets" as a concept makes very little sense to me since most of the rpgs I play are not D&D adjacent.
    That having been said that Astral Sea d10 is gorgeous.

    • @chrishandy9172

      I started gaming in the mid 90's, and while you could buy dice in sets then most people, at least that I knew, bought them piece meal from a bucket at the counter. Basically the only people who bought sets of dice were people who played D&D.
      And I have realized I am an old man yelling at a cloud.

      @@chrishandy9172 I started gaming in the late 80s in a very large farm town. When I asked the bookstore (where I bought my first gaming book) where I could get dice, they gave me a business card for a fellow who lived on a farm, collected dice, and had a small barn (large shack?) which contained several dice-buying options. I bought a set of amethyst dice that came in a blister pack with a small velveteen bag. To this day, that was the strangest purchase experience I have ever had.

    I’m sure this comment section is abandoned, but I’ll try and ask. Do you prefer metal or resin dies? I can’t pick all the resin dies look super cool and metal ones just look epic most of the time. Figured I’d ask for your personal pro and cons from each type.

    • @GinnyDi
      @GinnyDi  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You’re in luck, happened to see this when checking my analytics! It’s totally personal preference - some people prefer lighter weight dice because they roll more times once they land on the surface, whereas others prefer metal because of the weight and the solidity of the roll. Metal dice tend to “plonk” and don’t get much distance when they roll. If you have a friend who owns any or a local gaming store that would let you, you should try ‘em out and see which camp you fall into!
