“Goddammit!”
Ezekiel was going to play D&D with his friends tonight at 7:30, but he had somehow misplaced his set of Dice. It was given to him as a present when he went off to college, but now he had lost it.

Allured by the beauty of the crystalline dice, the players decided to use its d20 to roll initiative. This would have been an uneventful session, if the die hadn’t been enchanted by a real wizard to transform whoever had rolled the die into something else depending on what the die landed on.
