FAQ

What is 3d6 used for?

Summing three d6 is the classic method for rolling D&D ability scores (3 to 18, averaging 10.5) and the core resolution roll in GURPS. Because the results cluster near the middle, very high and very low scores are rare.

Are these 3d6 rolls really random?

Yes. Each die uses your browser’s cryptographic random generator with rejection sampling, so every face has an exactly equal chance — no modulo bias, no loaded dice.

Does this dice roller run in my browser?

Yes. Every roll happens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded and it works offline once the page has loaded.
