Third time

So close to landing on 𒀗

mmmm die pie

Only Nat Z for me, fml 😭

Wouldn't divination be more accurate if it is a Loremaster Cleric?

I was able to find a source from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's website. it seems that it would've actually gone up to the 20th letter.

A number of polyhedral dice made in various materials have survived from the Hellenistic and Roman periods, usually from ancient Egypt when known. Several are in the Egyptian or Greek and Roman collections at the Museum. The icosahedron – 20-sided polyhedron – is frequent. Most often each face of the die is inscribed with a number in Greek and/or Latin up to the number of faces on the polyhedron.

Except for the post title I didn't see any implication that zeta would be the highest value in the text.

Yeah that immediately set off the bullshit detectors. Everything else in this post looks stupid but that sounded like utter crap

Here's another thing that doesn't make sense about that post:

If you play Dungeons & Dragons, this object probably stops you in your tracks.

If you just play Dungeons & Dragons, then it looks like the hundreds or thousands of other d20s you've seen. Barely worth a look.

On the other hand, if you just like dice, like a lot of TTRPG people do, then it might catch your attention.

It’s likely all fake. Olympos is in Greece, not Turkey.

i'm pronouncing it like science with a lisp i don't care if that USED TO BE wrong ITS RIGHT NOW.

I am sort of amazed that between Charles Dickins and other serialized writers' zeal for selling stuff and the Goths' tendency to love superstitious parlor games somehow nobody in 1800s era ever managed to come up with a tabletop storytelling dice game (at least that I've ever heard of)

I dunno. But i find it funny that even back then the divination wizards needed their special hard-to-read dice.

Like, bro. I have a chart with all your symbols on it.

Honestly probably not that serious. Even in their myths/stories, the oracle would tell great doom and then no one would listen. I expect they got inspiration for that from somewhere.
