#hehehe silly magic dice go brrrr

YOU

YOUR THOUGHTS ARE GALAXY AND ARE MAKING BRAIN GO BRRRR SO HAVE SOME MORE BRAINROT

the mental image of the Echoes Acts being like a DIY In Progress Requiem Stand is fucking hysterical, I'm taking that idea for the future-

I'd imagine the Dice Backlash is only triggered if you interfere with the dice directly. Messing with nearby surfaces probably wouldn't count, but only to a certain degree. Like, let's say the dice is just about to roll to a stop and you mess with the surface. That would probably get you a penalty, but if the dice is still in the middle of bounding around it'll probably be fine

Requiem Stands are honestly a gamble. Definitely depends on what exactly the Requiem Stand does. For example, SCR might only be able to mildly affect it by making a person's Stand interfere with the dice results, but GER might be able to render the roll completely null. I don't think it would be able to change the roll, rather just making it completely useless in general. Diavlo could roll a Nat 20 only for GER to come in and make it worthless. As for the designs, I think it would just add to the dice instead of overwriting the old design

and YESSSSSS WITH THE POSSIBLE INTIMACY OF OTHERS. Because like. The dice are their fate. Their life, their future, everything rests in how those little things decide to roll. By trusting someone else with holding them, with rolling them, that's trusting them with everything. I'd imagine there would be some Fated Universal Thing preventing people for getting their dice rolled without their consent, probably the same thing that makes sure you can't loose your dice even if you don't want them. Maybe if the person the dice belong to doesn't want it to happen, the outcome of the roll will just do. Absolutely nothing

and ooooooooo that's a fun idea with Heaven's Door 👀👀👀 It gives Rohan an even better look at the person he's reading, and in a fight it gives him a better idea of where they fall short and he could beat them

oh are we doing fun au night? ok au where the land of jojo's bizarre universe is just like dnd for all the stats and mathy bits. Like they don't have the same races or class or magic or whatever, they all just have a page with all their stats and notable information and everyone has to roll dice for almost everything (except for this where you're so good at doing it there's virtually no way to mess it up, like ringing a doorbell or something) but anyway I just think it'd be funny that Jonathan rolls like a 19 on the killing blow for Dio but because it wasn't a perfect 20 he barely survives. Just a thought

SJRDBNVJDBFVDFBVD THIS REMINDS ME OF AN AU I MADE FOR A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SHOW WAY BACK WHEN

basically the way the AU went was that at birth, every single person in the world has a special set of dice. It's impossible to steal, destroy or lose them, and any attempt to do so will backfire horribly on the person who tries. The stats and modifiers you mentioned are invisible to everyone except the person they belong to, and dice rolls happen whether the person wants it to or not, but most people prefer rolling the dice themselves for some semblance of control

so some possible thoughts:

what if Jonathan did roll a Nat 20 but because of Dio's new Vampiric Modifiers he managed to just barely survive

in turn, during the Stardust fight, Jotaro then manages to just barely defeat Dio as a bit of fun irony

Joseph's That Guy who seems to be perpetually cursed with shitty rolls EXCEPT for when it actually matters and he randomly starts getting back to back Nat 20s

Pucci is arguably even more of a fanatic this time because the Dice are essentially a "physical" manifestation of Fate
