Roll a d6
Pick your dice and roll.
A fair 6-sided die, rolled in 3D. Pick more dice, add a modifier, or roll with advantage. Every result is generated by a cryptographic random source and then shown by the dice.
A d6 is the ordinary cube, and the die D&D uses most after the d20. Fireball deals 8d6, a shortsword and a shortbow deal 1d6, and the standard way to generate ability scores is to roll 4d6 and keep the highest three.
A d6 rolls a whole number from 1 to 6, each equally likely, so its average is 3.5. Rolling several at once and adding them up (2d6, 3d6) makes results bunch around the middle, which is why damage rolls of many dice feel steadier than a single die.
RollQuest rolls these same dice on the virtual tabletop: 3D dice with physics that every player at the table sees land, tied to the character sheet so the modifier is already in. The roller here is the same engine, free to use with no account.
Looking up a rule while you roll? The D&D 5e reference has every spell, monster, class and condition from both editions, and the advantage rule in full.
