If you’re an adventurer with limited adventuring space, we have you covered with all of the tiny, space-conscious accessories you’ll need.

Do you love playing every game like it’s a bottle episode? Or are you just very diminutive? Either way, we’ve got the coolest little accessories this side of the D&D table.

1. Mini Dice

Full sized D&D dice start taking up a ton of room after the tenth or eleventh set. Not to mention any oversized dice or specialty sets with more than seven dice. So imagine how many more sets you’ll have room for if you start buying itty bitty little tiny dice! Sure, you’ll have to be careful not to lose them, but I’d be lying if I tried to claim that I never had to chase a rogue d4 under a sofa or rescue a d6 from one of my cats. And these come in a gorgeous galaxy swirl!


2. D&D Pocket Companion

One of the most important aspects of an effectively space-savvy D&D accessory is how much other stuff it allows you to leave at home. This wooden vault lets you carry your dice (large or small) and a mini. And once you get there you have a handy place to prop up your phone, a pencil holder, and even another area for dice rolling. One-stop shopping gaming at its finest.


3. Pocket Watch Dice

You’re thinking about getting yourself a set of micro dice, but how to keep them safe? In this pocket watch-themed dice case, of course! For the adventurer whose interests include tabletop RPGs and steampunk, there’s nothing better to show up to the table than this stylish and very functional accessory. Pick your dice medal of choice and start fighting the clockwork golems in style.


4. Bestiary Notebook Set

If you need a small book for game notes that will never ever be confused for anything else, the Bestiary may be your best bet. Each of the eight pocket-size notebooks comes themed with a different classic D&D monster. There’s a two-page spread with artwork and a paragraph of basic information about the monster gracing the cover with their presence, and then almost fifty pages of blank grid notebook for your note taking, puzzle solving, and map drawing needs.


5. Rainbow D100 Ring

Don’t feel like carrying around an extra D10? Enjoy owning shiny pieces of jewelry? Like having a fun gimmick at the table? All of these desires can be answered with the rainbow D100 ring! To be fair, I don’t know how good or accurate the rolling of a ring is. But how often are you really rolling that D100 anyway? At the very least this would be a statement piece for your next session and a fun little fidget toy. And let’s be honest, that’s exactly what some of us need at the table.


What’s your favorite mini D&D accessory? Do you have a giant gaming setup, or do you need accessories that lean a little more space-conscious? Would you use micro dice or are you worried you’ll lose them? Let us know in the comments!

Happy adventuring!
