ninetysided

ninetysided is a term that can refer to an object with ninety sides. This is most commonly encountered in the context of dice, particularly role-playing games. A ninetysided die, often abbreviated as a d90, is a type of polyhedral die. Unlike more common dice like the d6 or d20, the d90 is less frequently used in mainstream gaming systems. Its specific applications are usually niche or custom. The design of a d90 would typically be a polyhedron with 90 faces, each designed to land with equal probability when rolled, assuming a fair die. The faces would be numbered from 1 to 90. The manufacturing of such a complex die presents unique geometric challenges to ensure fairness. While not standard, ninetysided dice are available from specialty manufacturers for collectors or those seeking highly specific probability distributions in their games. The term "ninetysided" itself is straightforward, describing the physical characteristic of having ninety surfaces or edges, depending on the context of the object being discussed.
