About dice pools

A dice pool is the core resolution mechanic of games like Shadowrun, World of Darkness / Storyteller, and many other modern tabletop RPGs. Instead of summing the pips, you roll a handful of identical dice and count how many meet or beat a target number — each qualifying die is a “success” or “hit,” and the number of successes is what you compare against the task's difficulty.

Set the pool size, the die size (d6 and d10 are the common presets, or enter any value from 2 to 100), and the target number. Each die that rolls at or above the target is highlighted; the rest are shown struck through. The success count is shown prominently and the Copy button puts the dice and the count on your clipboard.

This roller keeps the rule to a single “≥ target” comparison. Exploding dice (“10-again”), botches or glitches, difficulty subtraction, roll history, and distribution stats are intentionally out of scope.

How it works

  1. Your browser generates one cryptographically secure value per die, each from 1 to the chosen side count
  2. Every die that lands on the target number or higher is counted as a success and highlighted
  3. The total number of successes is shown — no server request is needed
