#RPGaDAY2024 Day 25
Day 25 Main Prompt: Desirable Dice
Time for some blatant product promotion! Dice suitable for role playing games are a dime a dozen and we all have box fulls of them but some of the more desirably ones to come to the market in recent days are this set from Runehammer.

Here is the sales blurb:
“This seven-die premium resin set has been in development for over a year, refining the materials, feel, and exact specifications to create that elusive every-damn-session set you can’t live without! Our goal was to develop a die that had the look and feel of a troll’s tusks, was beyond readable, and had a silky feel. The edges are beveled for a smooth roll, but not a roll off the table. The sizes are well beyond most sets… big, chonky, “molars” you can count on week after week. The just-a-bit translucent ivory finish picks up light colors with magical ease.
-Each box includes a protective outer sleeve for those rough backpack rides across town.
-Each box includes a ‘socketed’ foam insert that can be used or removed, complete with dragon battle mural interior box art.
If you’re a ‘weekly grind’ player who needs that one hard-working set to just WORK… no fancy colors, no hard-to-read numbers, no wacky rolling behaviors, this is your set.”
If that sounds good to you they are available here: https://www.runehammer.online/online-store/Official-Runehammer-Dice-Set-p564679890
I am not affiliated with Runehammer nor do I get any compensation for mentioning these dice, I just think they fit today’s prompt of ‘desirable.’
Day 25 Alternate Prompt: Mutant and my d10 roll is a 7, create a simple mechanic
What does the Wasteland Mutant eat? Roll a d4
1 meat, human flesh is prized above all else
2 vegetarian
3 no food needed, survives off radiation alone
4 Same thing as you and me silly!
That’s all for today, until tomorrow be excellent to each other!
August is #RPGaDay2024 and I am going to posting daily responses to the prompts. You can find more information about #RPGaDAY2024 here: https://www.autocratik.com/2024/07/announcing-rpgaday2024-for-august.html
There are two sets of prompts this year and since I have room to do so on the blog I will answer both. In episode S2E6 of my podcast titled RPGaDAY2024 Panel Discussion I assemble an esteemed panel and we go through the main prompts for the entire month’s so I will try to give different answers here on the blog but may end up repeating myself occasionally.
On their podcast Mirke the Meek suggested using the alternate prompts to create a setting and that is a great idea so I’m going to steal that. The setting I am going to craft for this month will be a modern, conspiracy style setting. Nominally I think we’ll set it in the 1970’s to avoid the problems cell phones and the internet can cause if player characters have access to them.
Here are the main prompts:
And here are a set of alternative prompts suggested by Skala Wyzwania, look at the day on the left, pick the theme, then roll d10.
