"Roll for initiative."

"Sorry, give me just a minute. I got logged out of my dice."

    Better than "sorry, my d20 is disabled until I pay my yearly subscription fees, though they say d20+ rolls better"

    They heard someone say "RGB needs to die already" and misunderstood the assignment.

    Well that's one way to have exploding dice

    Would this not make the dice much harder to have a balanced weight?

    There is no way the internal battery is symmetrical in every direction.

    As someone who is extremely unlucky with dice and bought balanced ones for a ton of money, if someone told me I had to use these, I would just leave.

    (The balanced dice actually works for me)

    I got a set of these as a present, they stopped charging and broke before I ever got to use them

    I have those! The d12 doesn't charge anymore after a few months, though. Sucks.

    EDIT I think people haven't bothered to check what product this is, annoying as this is I think I'll do myself and others a favour by explaining what this is:

    These are dice with LEDs in them, a sensor that tells when it hits a hard surface, and transparent digits on them. When you roll them, the sensor picks us a hit and the LEDs make the numbers blink for a few seconds. They come with a case you can connect via USB-C, each shape in the case has a charging pin, touching a small, metal surface on each die, through which they charge. In my case, even though the d12 is in the right position in its shape, it no longer charges. It's still a black die with transparent digits, it just doesn't blink, anymore.

    Did it get stuck on a low number?

    Lol it was a joke like it couldn't roll if it was broken. How can a dice like that be stuck on a number 😁 eh

    Unfortunately they're not shipping to the US because of tariffs right now, excepting what arrived before tariffs. Ask me how I know

    So like..... Do they light up?

    Or is it Bluetooth connection to your phone so a proprietary app can harvest data "track rolls to improve user experience" while just giving you an easy way to reference previous rolls?

    I'm actually curious, I can't imagine why dice would need to charge unless they're light up.

    And now I want a pair of light up dice that are brass and have some kind of draconic theme with bones and scales to make the number indicators...
