Maybe the best thing now would be to determine possible fates the rolls may bring. Love and death are two obvious ones... but I like the idea of the die/dice being a "monkey's paw" sort of artifact. Even if you get a reading like Love, which seems positive, it could end up taking a very grim and unexpected route, like perhaps falling in love only to have your suitor's life taken and making you feel even worse than you did before meeting them.

The idea is that people are tempted to take it upon themselves to roll the die/dice in hopes of some great fortune or positive outcome, unaware of the fact that even those that seem positive will be twisted into something negative. At least, that's my thought.

To me it would be more logical to have more than 6 sides. There are more than 6 or even more than 12 fates in the world.

As far as a Monkey's Paw type artifact, what if each time a character ended up with something negative, they rolled the dice again trying to get back into a positive life - only to crumble further until the inevitable rock-bottom or demise?
