06/04/2024 – Sirius Dice is proud to announce the June 3rd release of a limited-edition DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Progress Pride Dice Set, designed in collaboration with Daniel Quasar, the creator of the Progress Pride Flag, and Hasbro’s Wizards of the Coast. This exclusive dice set, comprised of only 1,500 units, celebrates diversity, inclusion, and progress within the LGBTQ+ community and beyond. For every dice set sold, $30 will be donated directly to The Trevor Project.
Daniel Quasar’s iconic Progress Pride Flag, which incorporates the rainbow flag with colors representing marginalized communities, serves as the inspiration for the design of the dice set.
“Playing tabletop RPGs has changed my life significantly so getting to experience them from a different perspective has been amazing,” said Daniel Quasar creator of the Progress Pride Flag. “My hope with this dice set is that LGBTQ+ players will feel seen, represented and proud as they roll, knowing that someone on the inside is just like them and just as excited to play.”
“For 50 years, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS has cultivated a strong sense of community, welcoming players who share a common enthusiasm and love for roleplaying and tabletop gaming,” said Dan Rawson, Senior Vice President and General Manager, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS at Wizards of the Coast. “As inclusivity is an integral part of this iconic fandom, we are honored to work with partners and organizations that mirror our core values of inspiring creativity, forging friendships, and fostering communities that are representative of its fans.”
“Our partnership with Daniel Quasar and the creation of the Progress Pride Dice Set reflect our commitment to fostering inclusivity and supporting organizations that champion the well-being of LGBTQ+ young people,” said Tina Trenkler, Co-Owner at Sirius Dice.
