Alphabet die as Oracle: I've been using an alphabet die by Koplow as one of my oracle devices and finding it very handy. It's a d30 with 26 alphabet letters and 4 "wild" sides. This is how I use it: I ask a non-yes/no question and then roll the die. I write down the first word that comes to mind which begins with that letter and reasonably answers the question (keeping an open mind as to what is "reasonable"). I'm finding it important to go with the first word, and not try to second guess it. I end up with a lot of interesting results this way. I use this method a lot to fill in details (contents of a room, details on an NPC or encounter, etc.). If you find yourself without the die, you can use this method: Pick up a book, open to a random page and read the first letter in the upper left hand corner.
