    Ya know, it just figures.
    I'm out, picking up a few odds and ends, when I decide to get a decent set of RP dice. So I go to every store in Ross Park and Northway Malls that might even remotly carry them, to no luck. So I tried a litte comic shop on McKnight Rd. No luck again. Then I remember that my friends play Magic in a comic shop in Cranberry. So, off I go. I trek my happy little self all the way up there, in the pouring rain. Look around, only see a couple of random, almost used die; nothing that really stikes my interest. I ask when they are getting more in, he says they usually get new stuff every other week. I thank him, and as I'm about the leave, the lights flicker. We look at each other, remark it as odd,; chaulk it up to the rain. So I head back down Rt. 19, before I suddenly find myself stuck in stand still traffic. Soon enough, police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances all over the place. After about 2 and a half hours of inching forward bit by bit, taking back roads, cutting through parking lots, and being forced to drive in the opposite directions then I wanted to go, I finally made it home.
    What happened? I missed the giant storm theat blew out store windos, tore apart part of a PNC Bank, through a truck into a Dunken Doughnuts, amongst other things. And I got stuck in the aftermath traffic. Not to sound horrific, but it was like ther was literally and explosion there. It was absolutely surreal. And you wanna know the best part?
    I still don't have my RP dice!!!!!! ARGH!!!!! What's a guy gotta do to get a decent set of dice? Anyone wanna give me some places to go?

    yeah the rain sucked today....i got stuck at a bus stop with the rain blowing sideways...


    Traffic is bad...
    I know a place that might have rp dice how much do you want to spend?
    If i can find them do you want to me to pick them up? if that's the case you can pay me back the next time you see me.

    Chris, you could try Eide's downtown.

    Did you notice the "Action Figure Cantina" on Rt 19? That guy selss SW toys AND RPG stuff. He should have some dice.

    Otherwise there's Phantom of the Attic in Oakland. It's on Craig street. (There are two locations about a block from each other. One is the comic shop, the other is the RPG store.

    You want me to pick some up for you?

    Are you looking for something specific in color/texture and which dice do you want?

    (IE 4,6,8,10,12,20 sided dice?) and how many of each one?

    I'd suggest the following:

    2 - 4 sided dice
    5 - 6 sided dice
    2 - 8 sided dice
    2 - 10 sided dice
    1 - 12 sided dice
    2 or 3 - 20 sided dice

    Theres also a place up here in edinboro that should have them because they are the biggest nerds. If nothing else works out pm me what you need and i will go look for it at the store, im like 85% sure they'll have it then i can send it to you and you can send me the mula.

    If McKnight Rd is close to you, then there is a store nearby called Duncan's Comics on RT 19 that may sell the dice. If you know where CCAC North is located, then the store is a few miles south on the same side of the road.

    There is a phantom of the attack in the Parkway mall near the Fort Pitt Tunnels. They have dice.


    And, although it was awful that you were stuck in aftermath traffic, I'm very glad you weren't on the road when that huge storm that tore up everything hit.
