The public beta for digital dice launched yesterday on D&D Beyond, and thousands of fans have already rolled millions of times to see that first "20" land on their screens.
The D&D Beyond team has taken the task seriously of helping people across the world play games and connect with one another during the unprecedented times of this pandemic. Knowing that we can bring even the smallest amount of joy in the midst our global situation provides a real sense of purpose, and we appreciate the reports of happiness brought about by these pixels bouncing across your character sheets more than you know.
Starting today, you will be able to unlock new dice sets for your collection, including the colorful 'Pigment Pack' and a fully-animated 'Mythic Set.' You can check out both in the Marketplace. There will be plenty more where they came from in the days ahead.
We are also acutely aware of recent events that call into stark focus the systemic racial injustice that continues to exist in the world. We understand that messaging from companies often lands hollow without action, and we do not wish to remain silent in the face of this. For the next week (through June 9th), D&D Beyond will donate 50% of all proceeds from digital dice sets to the Black Lives Matter movement.
We stand in solidarity with the Black community against racism, discrimination, and senseless acts of violence.

Posted Jun 2, 2020My city is still burning. I'd feel better donating money that will go to help the victims whose businesses, property, and lives have been destroyed by this wanton destruction. I'm all about donating to worthy causes...however the only cause worth my money right now is helping my neighbors rebuild. My donation is needed here more, thanks anyway.

Posted Jun 2, 2020Yes half. Can't you just be happy they are doing anything at all? They didn't have to do anything. Why can't some people just be thankful.

Posted Jun 2, 2020Can you donate 25% to the BLM and another 25% to the organizations help those who were wrongfully hurt as a result of the BLM riots? Or is that too spicy?

Posted Jun 2, 2020I'm sad my comment earlier got flagged and deleted, it didn't violate any terms, and I felt like I made a valid point that would pretty much put an end to the fiery conversation. Alas, this is a controversial issue that will enflame all kinds of passions. But that's the great thing about living in a country that allows freedom of speech. If a private company wants to donate proceeds to a cause they believe in, it is their right. I am glad they didn't remain silent and are at least trying. I encourage my fellow D&d Players to use this energy to come up with safe ways to help your local communities that have been affected.

Posted Jun 2, 2020I would have liked a cause that is less politically aligned as there are alot of community services adequat for the context. Something more neutral as there is enough dividing.
I love the dice and the intent !
