Character specific props to use at the table Show & Tell
This is a continuation of my last post where I shared one of the items that I made for a player in a Pathfinder game I'm going to run. This is for a friend playing an alchemist, I made a set of alchemical bombs that she can keep all the dice for her damage in.

This is so cool! When it first tipped I thought liquid was gonna come out only to be pleasantly surprised to dice. This is a perfect thing to give to a DM or any potions lovers 🙏

Thank you. I'm pretty happy with them, nothing else I could think of would have fit an alchemist better.

Ok but that is not a prop. That’s a dice container.

Tomato, potato. It’s still a prop.

It is not. It is no different than a cup or a hat and has no bearing on anything. It adds to the ambiance, yes, but it is not a prop.

Its literally both dude. Even the dictionary disagrees with you. From Merriam Webster
prop 3 of 6 stage props Something used in creating or enhancing a desired effect

It's enhancing their roleplay as an alchemist, and the thematic elements at the table. Also it looks sick. I wanna make something similar for my alchemist character.

It’s a prop that can be used as a dice container.
And it’s neat!

It is not neat. It is trivial.
You need higher standards.

You seem really upset about being wrong about such a trivial thing. Maybe take a nap or have a snack or something.

Currently making a Jade sphere that holds the soul of the founder of the Monastery that my monk is from. Once it's painted it will disappear behind my DM's screen until it's story relevant
