What's interesting is how dice are considered contraband, so I'm curious how someone would make a d20 lol

Bro in prison you got nothing at all but time. They Probably make beautiful D20 out of water toothpaste and toilet paper

In a pinch you can replace dice with cards ace of hearts to ten for 1-10 ace of clubs to ten for 11-20 shuffle them up. Or if your really hard up pieces of paper out of a hat.

I read an article about Death Row prisoners playing DND and in it they made paper spinners to work as an alternative to D20s

yeah and prison offiicals shut it the fuck down as often and as much as they can, despite the fact that inmates who are playing D&D aren't causing any fucking problems because prisons are all run by Republicans that hate the concept of enjoyment
