Discover Your Real-Life Roleplaying Stats With the 4d6andMe Stat DNA Discovery Kit

Check out the new 4d6andMe Stat DNA Discovery Kit! No need to provide a blood sample, just a small saliva sample. You’ll then be on your way to discover your real-life roleplay attributes (STRength, DEXterity, CONstitution, INTelligence, WISdom, and CHArisma.)

We are excited for you to begin this adventure. Admit it: since the first time you picked up those polyhedral dice, you wondered, “What would my stats look like?” And in the past, it’s been a mystery. But now, with the help of science, you can find out what those random number generators say about you.

Everybody has a D&D story. What’s yours? We can tell you your class, ability scores, ability modifiers, saving throws, skill proficiencies, hit die, passive wisdom, and initiative all on one easy-to-read form – in fact a Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition character sheet! No more arguing over who gets shotgun or who gets to sing along with the radio and who doesn’t. These numbers tell your personal D&D story.

In the LFG tool, you can see relationships between you and and other registered players and compare them with up to five other matches at a time to help you triangulate new players for your next adventure.

And if you want additional information – for instance, whether you’re naturally gifted or its a racial bonus – you can choose to add on additional reports, such as Race and Alignment, for a small fee.

WANT: Rick and Morty Screaming Sun Alarm Clock [Pic + Video]

This Rick and Morty Screaming Sun Alarm Clock from Thinkgeek might be the best alarm clock of all time:

Sometimes the dulcet sound of birds chirping just isn’t enough to get us up in the morning. We know we have things to do, but the bed sure is warm and cozy. Nothing is going to get us moving more effectively than a clock that doesn’t stop screaming at us for 42 hours. That’ll for sure keep us productive. Or sleep deprived. One of the two.

Bring home your very own screaming sun just like on that planet from “The Wedding Squanchers” episode. When it’s time to wake up, the sun rises above the mountains and starts screaming. Non-stop. That’ll get you out of bed in no time.

10 Most Overpowered Weapons In Video Gaming History

Some gamers complain about how overpowered weapons can suck the fun out of a game. How suddenly, you go from being mortal to be a killing machine who cannot be dropped. I am not one of those complainers. I play games to feel a false sense of power that my normal life doesn’t allow me, so when I suddenly get a weapon that makes me a living nuclear bomb, I enjoy that feeling. We are all so powerless in daily lives sometimes we deserve to feel true, unyielding power.

This list is about games with massively overpowered weapons (which by no means is a bad thing if you are like me), but some gamers think these weapons make certain gaming moments too easy.

I grew up on old-school Nintendo, everything is too easy now by comparison, people (except Dark Souls games, of course.) Wild weapons just make said games that much more fun!

Stop Standing Still: Top 10 Video Game Idle Animations

I still recall the moment Sonic the hedgehog started tapping his foot because I was taking too long watching the amazing game animation and graphics. That was the first idle animation I recall blowing my mind, though at that point in gaming there were already many to pull from.

Here are some of the best idle animations from past games.
