A downloadable inpsiration aid

This is an unofficial dice set you can import into Boardnaut Studios' Custom Image Dice app, available on Android devices, using black-and-white icons from game-icons.net, under the Creative Commons 3.0 BY license and CC0.

Before I found a set of Moomin Story Cubes dice on deep discount, I used the Custom Image Dice app to create a set of six "story icon" dice to act as inspiration for the many journaling games I've played. Each dice is over 20 sides and likely much more, e.g. they each randomly select from a specific pool of icons I selected. (I didn't include every single icon from game-icons.net because that is impossible.)

There are six unique icon pools, each represented by one "die": 

  • concepts: icons representing actions, ideas, symbols, the non-tangible
  • animals: icons representing animals and the rare fossil
  • plants: icons represent plants, flowers, and fruit
  • objects: non-animate things you can probably pick up
  • places: locations
  • passages: ways to get to locations (doors, bus stops, vehicles)

By default you get one of each die, but you can edit the set to add more or less of any single die.

Note that these are icons I selected for myself personally, so I usually didn't include weapons or fire. Fortunately you can add additional icons to each die for your own custom set! I highly recommend game-icons.net as a source, it's pretty dang wonderful. 

Instead of payment, I ask that you make a donation ($1 or more) to RAINN, the USA's largest anti-sexual violence organization. When I was able to work, every year I made as large a donation to RAINN as possible. It means a great deal to me.

Notes:

1. Comments are off because I am too sick to give people the appropriate level of response and support, nor to moderate in a timely fashion bigoted comments from my past abusers, so this comment section would not be useful.
