I am going to break out of the "strictly D&D" mode to explain what set of dice or individual dice are my favorite. The funky dice - d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24, and d30 - used in the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG are my favorite set of dice just for the nostalgic feeling they bring. When I use them it makes me remember how excited all of us were about the new kinds of dice that D&D introduced to us. We had never seen them before and we were in awe of all the dice in my Uncle David's collection.
A blog featuring the game related ramblings and ideas of a role-playing gamer since 1980. My interests include many games and gaming related topics, but my main focus will be on Open Ended Original Edition Old School Fantasy Adventure Sandbox Role Playing Games (OEOEFASRPG™) The Open-Ended Sandbox Exploration of Dungeons, Wilderness and Cities. Occasionally, other topics outside of gaming will be discussed here as well.
Since people like weird dice, maybe an entire system should be designed around prime numbers:

Interesting idea. The funky dice actually have made me give this some thought. It would definitely be an interesting project.
