icosahedron (d20) = water

But that leaves out my favorite d12 dodecahedron ... for this one, Plato noticed it had special properties, and therefore he assigned it the stuff of the cosmos, from which stars and planets are made. Whoa. Cosmos! If Zaviak makes an appearance in BG III, I would love to hear his thoughts on this.


You mean Aether? Or possibly Milla Jovovich?
