Venin de Basilisk Dice - 7D Set
- In stock, ready to ship
Smaug is a very old dragon who lives at the top of Pic-Ronchon. She is far-sighted. She wears glasses shaped like dice, and when thieves come into her cave, she invites them for tea and shows them her collection. For six hours. Most thieves never come back. Not because they’re dead: because they’ve learned their lesson.
One day, a basilisk moved into the cave next door. A basilisk is a giant snake whose stare turns you to stone and whose venom melts armour like butter. The villages fled. The knights fled. A bard fled while singing, which is very hard to do.
(The Dungeon Master, without looking up from the screen: the basilisk rolled Petrifying Gaze against Smaug. It rolled a 19. Smaug wasn’t wearing her glasses. She saw a blurry green smudge. She felt nothing at all.)
Smaug squinted at the smudge and said: “Oh! A new neighbour! Come in, come in, I’ll show you my collection.” The basilisk stared at Smaug. Smaug stared about three metres to the left of the basilisk. The basilisk stared harder. Smaug poured it some tea.
After two hours, the basilisk tried to bite. Smaug held out a cookie at that very moment, and it bit the cookie. The cookie turned to stone. Smaug found it “a little dry.” After four hours, the basilisk was crying. After six hours, it spat all its venom into the teapot out of sheer despair and slithered away as fast as it could.
Smaug looked into the teapot. The basilisk’s venom had crystallized into seven small pieces, split into two colours: the blue of fear and the green of the snake, with golden glints like its eyes. She added them to her collection. They are the only dice in the cave that scare thieves.
(The Dungeon Master, with a smirk: the basilisk moved to the desert. It put up a sign in front of its new hole: “NO TEA.”)
The Venin de Basilisk dice (“basilisk venom”) were born. Half blue, half green, split diagonally, they’re perfect for underestimated monsters, dragons who forgot their glasses and players who give the DM a dirty look.
In blue and green resin with gold numbers, these polyhedral dice are perfect for your Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder or any roleplaying game (RPG). A dice set that stares at you without blinking.
