What RPG Dice Roller does, with a checked example

This tool rolls dice for tabletop games without a single physical die: pick a die type - d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20, or d100 - choose how many, and the browser tumbles them in 3D before showing the faces and the total. Every roll is appended to an on-screen history, so a long combat round stays checkable, and everything happens in the tab: nothing is uploaded. The surprise most users hit is that the 3D animation is decoration. The outcome is settled the instant you roll; the tumbling is theater, and a die that keeps landing on the same number is ordinary random variation, not a broken or biased roller.

Worked example

A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.

Input

2d6

Expected output

The tool rolls two six-sided dice and shows each face with the total, logged in the history. One possible result: 4 and 5, total 9. Any total from 2 to 12 can occur, and 7 is the most common.

Each d6 lands on 1 to 6 with equal probability, so two of them sum from 2 to 12; 4 plus 5 equals 9, and 7 is the likeliest total because six different pairs add up to it (1+6, 2+5, 3+4, 4+3, 5+2, 6+1).

How the result is produced

1

How the numbers come out

Each die's result comes from the browser's random number generator, and a fair n-sided die lands on any face with probability 1/n - a d20 treats 1 and 20 exactly alike. Rolls are independent: no roll remembers or influences the next, so there is no 'due' number after a streak. The 3D animation cannot change or be steered to an outcome; what the dice show is the result.

Dice pools and totals

Choose a die type and a count, and the tool rolls each die on its own, showing individual faces beside the sum. The distinction matters: 2d6 totals run from 2 to 12 but cluster around 7, while a single d12 spreads 1-12 evenly - the same maximum with very different odds. The standard seven types and the custom dice all follow this one rule: independent uniform roll per die, results added together.

Good uses

  • A tabletop session with no dice on hand: roll d20 attacks, saving throws, and skill checks for a TTRPG character.
  • Bulk damage rolls such as eight d6 for a fireball, where counting and re-rolling physical dice slows the table.
  • Online games or a solo session: show the animated roll and keep the history open to settle disputes over what was rolled.

Limits and checks

  • A run of identical results is not evidence of bias: for a d20, two natural 1s in a row is 1 in 400 and three in a row is 1 in 8,000 - rare, but bound to happen to someone eventually. Streaks are expected in uniform randomness.
  • The history belongs to the current page session: reloading or closing the tab may erase it, so write down anything you need for the campaign. It is also the tool's own report of its rolls, with no external audit trail.
  • Reading only the total loses information: 12 on 2d6 is one combination in 36, while 12 on a d12 is one face in 12. The same number means different things depending on how many dice produced it.

Common questions

Is the roller fair? Can I use it to settle something important?

As fair as the browser's randomness allows: every face is equally likely in expectation, and for casual play that is plenty. It is not a certified or audited random source, though, so do not stake money, bets, or anything legally consequential on it. If a result needs to stand up to scrutiny, use physical dice or a generator whose method is documented and verifiable.

Does a bigger die or more dice improve my chances?

Neither improves luck - both change the shape of the odds. A d20 gives every result from 1 to 20 the same 1-in-20 chance, while 2d6 favors the middle and a d12 spreads evenly. If the game rules specify a die, substituting another type shifts the probabilities the rules were balanced around, so roll what the rule says.
