Dispel Dice: Exsanguinated Dice Review
The Dispel Dice Exsanguinated set is one of the most striking dice collections I’ve ever rolled. Its deep crimson swirls evoke freshly spilled blood suspended in crystal, making it a perfect fit for gothic horror and vampire-themed campaigns. While the dark numbering can make readability challenging under typical game room lighting, exceptional craftsmanship, balanced rolls, and unforgettable table presence make this premium set an easy recommendation.
Dispel Dice: Devil You Know
The Devil You Know from Dispel Dice is a blood-red gothic resin dice set with razor-sharp edges, chaotic personality, and serious vampire energy. Beautiful, dangerous, and unforgettable.

The FanRoll Fizban’s Fortune Mystery d20 feels less like a gaming accessory and more like treasure pulled from a dragon’s hoard. This review covers the rare hollow-metal Bronze Dragon d20, its elegant rolling feel, collector appeal, and why it never made it back into the dice bag.
