So instead of copper, silver, electrum gold (the D&D standard), the early Roman Empire used various iterations of Bronze, Orichalcum, Silver, Billon, and Gold.

And today I learned Billon is the name for an alloy of silver and gold, or silver and copper, or silver and gold and copper, or basically any alloy of silver and some base metal.

You know what I want in my RPG dice? Legibility. I want to roll the die, glance at it, and instantly know what the result is. I want speed and efficiency. I also don't want to spend $100 on something I will have now spent so much money on that I'll hesitate to even use.

- is simple enough for 3.5 year olds
- includes dice rolling
- non violent problem solving
- fantasy setting

Would love to introduce my kiddo to TTRPGs, Role Playing, Dice Rolling, and Collaborative Story Telling but don't want conflict, violence, etc. to be an element of the problem solving.

Would prefer not to build my own systems and campaign but not sure if anything is out there with these requirements.
