Game Turn

The player who has the dice rolls them in the center of the table and performs the following 3 steps:

1. They choose a die in the center of the table and places it on their Character sheet.
2. They realize the action of the die.
3. They choose a player who does not yet have a die on their Character sheet.

The player designated on step 3 performs the above 3 actions, and players continue to do so until all the dice have been chosen.

When all dice have been played, the player who has no die on their Character sheet gets all the dice and a new round begins.
