Has anyone looked into what it would take to make Decent dice? I think Roll20 would be the perfect way to play Decent and other Games like it, would just need to make the custom dice. Can it even be done at this point
Hi I don't think this needs the API. Descent dice are basically D6 with different symbols. This needs rollable tables which I believe is a subscriber-only feature. Basically you create a table with an image for each side and you can use this like a D6. It wont give you the 'experimental' 3D dice feature but it would be possible to set these up and then type e.g. /1t[blue_die]+1t[green_die]+3t[black_die] or create macros for these or create multi-sided tokens from them and select 'Random Side' to use them. Edit: Riley beat me to it. If you subscribe and create these let us know if it pans out please.

Would Rollable Tables allow for the adding of the various icons or just
display the graphics?
If by adding you mean numerically adding, yes you can define the icon for each "side" of the dice (which would be each entry in the rollable table), as well as the numerical value for each "side". Then it will total them up just like any other dice (e.g. d6).

Riley - Descent dice have multiple symbols on each side and what you add up depends on what you are trying to roll
Yes there are up to 3 symbols
on each side. I would like to be able to add the sum of each side and display
the total of all three when a role is made. And there can be more than one of
each symbol per side. This is where the problem lies and why I think the API
would be needed. If it can be done at all.
