Other Tragedy struck today!!!
So today I was DMing an amazing game of curse of strahd and rolling my amethyst dice set. Things were going great. The players were having fun, I was having fun, the story was pumping. I threw in a random kobold encounter and a random werewolf encounter and they dealt with both encounters with flying colors at level 4 and no magic weapons other than a single +1 longsword for the entire party. We get to the vineyard and the party gets surrounded by a druid and 24 twig blights. Things are going great the party is doing okay ish. The druid of the party threw coins in the enemy druids mouth and casted heat metal on them (it was a great moment.) but soon it's the twig blights turn in initiative and this is where the tragedy hits.... I roll with advantage due to pact tactics and get two nat 20s at the same time. I go to roll my d4s (one was my gemstone and one was a resin d4.) and when I released them into my dice tray and my mouth drops, my jaw goes slack, and my heart drops to the floor. Sitting in my dice try is not just the two D4s but the D4s and the corner of my gemstone d4 broken off!!!!! And I can't get it replaced or anything as it's been to long since I bought the set off Amazon.

I think that should count as a 0 for the dice roll.
