Questions
- What is the average roll of 1d6?
- The average of a single d6 is 3.5: every face from 1 to 6 is equally likely, so the expected value is (1 + 6) divided by 2.
- How do I add a modifier to 1d6?
- Type the full expression in the dice notation field, for example 1d6+3 or 1d6-1, and press Roll notation. The total shown includes the modifier.
- Is this dice roller free?
- Yes. Every tool on Tools and Taverns is free, with no account, signup, or roll limit. The roll runs in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.
- Can I see my previous rolls?
- Yes. The roller keeps your last 20 rolls on screen with the individual dice for each, so a contested result is still there when someone asks what you got.
