We Rise Again

Welcome to Potter’s Army

Welcome to Potter's Army

We have been a Harry Potter Roleplaying site since 2007. If you're an old member we hope you come check out the discord link provided below. And if you're looking for a new roleplaying site, well, we're a little inactive. But every once and a while nostalgia sets in and a few of our alumni members will revisit the old stomping grounds and post together. Remember to stay safe out there. And please feel free to drop a line whenever!

What’s Happening?
Since every few months or so a few of our old members get the inspiration to revisit their old stomping grounds we have decided to keep PA open as a place to revisit old threads and start new ones devoid of any serious overarching plot or setting. Take this time to start any of those really weird threads you never got to make with old friends and make them now! Just remember to come say hello in the chatbox below or in the discord. Links have been provided in the "Comings and Goings" forum as well as the welcome widget above.

Pretty much says in the title.

I was wondering how many sides there are on the test dice. I'm trying something out in Calli's shop, but I only seem to be getting nines and twos.

you can set how many dice you roll. If you're rolling two, the numbers can add up to twelve.

I'll do some more tests to check it's not a fluke.

Well if you do it with more than one die than of course there's a chance of getting a score higher than 6, it's a total of the dots, not what is showing....

That wasn't the problem, Jess. The problem was that I kept getting the same totals. However with further experiment I've found I do get more variation.

Also, just for your info, it doesn't tell you the total of both dies, it tells you which face lands upward on each die. Like this: 'test' = 4, 6

Thanks for the replies though.
