Red Dragon Dice Keeper Review

The front of the box.

December 4th is National Dice Day. I’ve already posted most of my dice in previous blog posts. So instead of showing some more dice, I thought I’d break open the seal on a dice holder I obtained several years ago.

This is the Dungeons and Dragons Red Dragon Die Keeper that was sent out in a Loot Crate back in 2018 (at least, that is what the copy-write says on the box). I don’t recall how I obtained this. I didn’t get a Loot Crate, it was part of some trade or a gift where I obtained some other geeky items at the same time. Since it wasn’t the primary thing I wanted in the trade, it went on the shelf for this fateful day. I walked past it just as I was thinking “what should I blog about for National Dice Day?” I’ll take the inspiration where I can.

Here is the text from the back of the box.

The box is a little over three inches wide and just under three inches tall. Red is a very prominent color for the packaging. While I was looking this over, I was curious of how much this collectable would have set me back. I couldn’t find it on Amazon, but on Ebay it appeared to be between $15 to $30 US.

AAAHHHH!!!! You took it out of the box?!?!?

Just before I opened up the package, I noted that the text stated that it included one figure and one D20. That’s kewl. The last dice keeper/jail that I reviewed didn’t have any dice with it. There is a protective plastic sleeve that comes apart (after a little bit of effort) to reveal the figure and die.

Foolish mortal. You have freed me from my containment.

As you can probably see, there is some detail on the scales on this figure. Not a lot of color. It’s a dark red with yellow eyes. On the bottom of the base it confirms that this was made in China for Loot Crate, but it was designed in Los Angeles. So this is a Southern California Dragon. DUDE!!!!

Dis is mine… all mine.

I wanted to see how it would work as a dice keeper. There is a horn/growth sticking out from the bottom of the dragon’s chin. It took a bit of work to get the D20 situated in the keeper. Don’t expect a quick in or out if you are using this at the table. It’s a light plastic figure, but I was worried that I was going to snap off the front part that holds the die in place.

Um… that’s too big for me. But I love the color.

I noticed how light the D20 felt. It was then that I realized the D20 was also smaller than what I was use to. So I pulled out a D20 from my standard Chessex dice set and compared them side by side. The black D20 rolled OK, but not being part of another set, I don’t know if I’d get a lot of use out of it. I’ll keep it with the figurine to keep the two parts together instead of adding it to my dice bag.

Conclusion: The figure looks kewl. I could see myself placing this down on a battle mat before my unsuspecting players. The die is nothing special. It’s just there as part of the set. As a dice holder itself, well it will hold a die, but like any dragon, it won’t give it up easily. So display or figure, not really a quick grab from the holder device. I don’t think I would have paid more than $15 for this. But I am happy that I have it in my collection.

Happy National Dice Day everyone. Now I need to write up a scenario where the party encounters a dragon. Hmmm…

Do you have any questions about the Red Dragon Dice Keeper? Feel free to ask me about them. This article is open for discussion on the TardisCaptain dot Com Discord server. You can also email me at Carl (at) TardisCaptain.com with any comments.

2025 Character Creation Challenge

31 Day Character Creation Challenge
Feel free to share this image on social media to spread the word.

For those of you who have reached out to me to make sure I’m OK, thank you. October and November were busier than I expected. I’m sorry that I made you guys worry, but yes there will be a 2025 Character Creation Challenge coming up this January. I’ve been itching to get back into my geek and RPG blogs. Especially since I’ve discovered how interactive the geek community has been on the BlueSky social media website. It was really reminding me of Twitter back in 2012-19 back when it was fun and a source of information. I’m seeing feeds as I want them (not four days later like other social media websites). When I ask questions, I get answers instead of ridicule. I’ve made a ton of new connections. I hope you all enjoy reading this blog.

I’ve been getting this website updated in preparation for the upcoming challenge. The 2024 entries and links of participating sites have been moved to their own section. This has the effect of making the main Character Creation Challenge page look pretty blank for participating forums and blogs. If you are participating again this year, shoot me a message and I’ll get you added. I’ll try to search out what I can, but I know I won’t get all of them. This event has been growing every year and now we have reached the fifth year. I can’t wait to see what creativity you all come up with.

For those of you learning about this for the first time, the Character Creation Challenge is for fans of various role playing games. You may have looked into a game or collected the books with the intention to play but never have. Or perhaps you have a favorite system that you always turn to for RPG sessions. Well the Character Creation Challenge is an event to create a new RPG character for each day in January (running parallel to the “new year, new you” theme) from what ever system(s) you choose. Once you have the character ready to play, post it on a website, blog, social media (use the hashtag #CharacterCreationChallenge) or online message boards. The forums at RPG.net was a popular forum where a lot of participants had posted their completed characters. Other active participating message boards included the RPG Pub and the RPG Geek forums (which had entries going for most of the year).

To the left of my computer I have a stack of physical RPG books that I’ve picked up in 2024. Brand new books included the Star Trek Adventures 2nd Edition and some Kickstarter rewards. I had picked up some books from SaltCON, others were picked up from online purchases or found in thrift stores. On the PDF side of things, I’ve picked up a bunch of books from various charity bundles or just from the DriveThruRPG website. I’ll have a better idea which 31 games I’m going to use soon when I post my “Prepping for the 2025 Character Creation Challenge” post coming next month. I’m still crossing my fingers that one more kickstarter reward will arrive in time. Plus I don’t know if I’ll be gifted a game in the upcoming “Secret Satan” gift exchange that always happens on the RPG.net forums.

Some forever GMs use this as a challenge to create a character like they were actually going to just play. There are a few other themes posted on the main Character Creation Challenge page. Remember, this is for fun, so have fun with it.

It feels good to get an actual blog post up about Roleplaying Games. I know that I’ve been able to keep my Star Trek Quotes reports fresh, but I want to type, I want to pass on knowledge, I want to grow and explore. So look for more soon and thanks for being patient with me.

If you would like to participate, email me at Carl (at) TardisCaptain.com, post on the TardisCaptain.com Discord Channel or find me on social media/message boards and let me know where you will be posting your challenge characters at. If you are posting them on a website, I’ll add the link to my Character Creation Challenge page.
