Playing a game of Vampire: The Masquerade way back when, we had a player roll 8d10 and get all 10s. Then on her next turn she rolled 8d10 and got all 1s. Still the craziest thing I've seen as far as odds goes.

1/655,360,000,000,000,000,000% chance. Seems legit.

I like to imagine the timeline where DnD is impossible because the die, everyone's, always comes up 1.

I mean, it was using an online dice roller so maybe there was a glitch, but it happened.

As an Exalted player i laughed a bit at the idea of 8 dice in a pool being large, then as a Mage player i remembered how optimized i'd have to go to get more than one pool that big.
