A Dungeons & Dragons dice set based on the James Webb Telescope's "Cosmic Cliffs" photo can add cosmic flair to any tabletop RPG session.

A breathtaking James Webb Space Telescope photo has been transformed into a set of gorgeous Dungeons & Dragons dice. The NASA telescope's first set of images, revealed on July 12, has quickly become a pop culture sensation due to its cosmic beauty and scientific value. Dungeons & Dragons players love special dice, and a set based on the James Webb Telescope's "Cosmic Cliffs" image would make an amazing part of any tabletop set.

Wizards of the Coast's iconic tabletop RPG Dungeons & Dragons uses dice as the primary way for players to interact with the game world. Multi-sided polyhedral dice are used to reflect different chances of success. A player may roll a four-sided die to determine whether they find an item, for example, while a twenty-sided die is used to determine the item's value. Dice play a functional role in Dungeons & Dragons, but they are also an important part of the game's culture. Fans of the tabletop RPG tend to collect fashionable dice sets, like the Wild Beyond the Witchlight premium dice set released by Wizards of the Coast last year.

Twitter user and dice crafter Color Spray Creations has revealed a Dungeons & Dragons dice set based on the recently revealed James Webb Telescope images. The awe-inspiring set of cosmic dice is specifically based on "Cosmic Cliffs of Carina Nebula", an image depicting a star-forming region about 8,500 light-years from Earth. The image shows a beautiful blue universe with wispy orange "cosmic cliffs," with stars and galaxies dotting the universe behind it. Color Spray Creations has somehow transformed this now iconic image into a set of Dungeons & Dragons dice so that each roll can possess some cosmic power.

The James Webb Space Telescope images have made their way into gaming culture, with Bethesda recently comparing the NASA telescope imagines to Skyrim skill trees. The 2011 fantasy RPG depicts each skill tree as a distinct constellation, with players looking to the sky and lighting stars as they unlock new skills. The iconic Skyrim image does closely resemble the James Webb Telescope pictures, particularly the colors and myriad stars seen in Cosmic Cliffs of Carina Nebula. However, NASA's real images are somehow even more magical than the skill tree depicted in Skyrim.

Dungeons & Dragons dice are a functional and fashionable way to spice up a tabletop RPG experience. There are many official and custom-made dice sets out there, but Color Spray Creations' "Cosmic Cliffs" dice set is a truly gorgeous way to create some intergalactic stories. While the Dungeons & Dragons dice set is not currently for sale, this talented creator will hopefully make the Cosmic Cliffs available for purchase in the future.
