• A Roman dodecahedron, a mysterious 12-sided metal object, was discovered in the village of Norton Disney in England.
  • The artifact is in excellent condition and is larger than many other dodecahedrons that have been found.
  • The purpose of these objects remains unclear, but theories suggest they may have been used for ritualistic or religious purposes.

    For those that don’t know

    Step 1: roll up a half orc barbarian
    Step 2: wield a great axe
    Step 3: roll a natural 20 on an attack

    Now you use the three dodecahedrons!

        Yep, and a greataxe, which is the most common barbarian weapon, uses 1d12 as damage die.

        Now, a crit (natural 20 on a 20 sided die) doubles the dice and makes it 2d12, and half orcs have a feature so that they can roll an additional weapon damage die when critting on their attack, which makes it 3d12.
