Skullcandy poll

Hey,

So I now have one (1) empty bottle of crystal skull vodka...and a drinking problem. :)

No, I've got this empty bottle. I have confirmed that regular gaming dice will easily fit through the opening.

Here's what it looks like:

(and here's a link if it doesn't show up above)

My plan is to make a gaming momento mori. I will fill the skull with dice to serve as a visible reminder of the inevitability of death and the endless random chance that dictate matters of life and death. It will also soak up bad ju-ju to be unleashed whenever I GM.

So, now some questions:

1.) What style of dice should I fill the skull with?

a.) Regular gaming dice like you've already got a million of.
b.) Gamescience dice because they're more truly random.
c.) Dice made of obsidian or some other gemstone -- sure they're small and more expensive, but it'd be a gem-filled skull and that's AWESOME!
d.) Other (explain in comments)

2.) What color of dice should I use?

a.) White dice (the color of bone!)
b.) Black dice (the color of death!)
c.) Blue dice (it's your favorite color!)
d.) Grab bag of colors
e.) Other or I have an opinion about what color the numbers should be (explain in comments)

3.) What type of dice should I use?

a.) Standard sets (i.e. d4, d6, d8, d10, d%, d12, d20)
b.) All of one type (explain in comments)
c.) One or more "oddball" dice (d3, d14, d100, FUDGE dice etc. Explain in comments)
d.) Other (explain in comments)

Thanks in advance for your participation!
Tom

oooh, maybe with the rest black ... of course, I'd go over the top with the GitD - get black dice with glowing numbers, and two fully glowing ones for the eyes ... and a small blacklight to illuminate the whole shebang.

If BG used transparent dice, he could place some LEDs in as well to make a very creepy looking lamp.

I believe they now make blacklight LEDs
