No. You have a five percent chance of rolling any given number on any given roll on a twenty sided die.
That's unlikely on a D20. They're almost all polished in rock tumblers which leaves edges rounded to random radiuses and faces all different sizes
That's true of all sizes but matters more on the dice with more faces
On most dice rolling a 1 or 20 or 12 indicates that that number is probably more likely than others to come up
Some dice are worse than others, reportedly the TSR red box d20s were egg shaped with 1 and 20 on the ends making those numbers highly unlikely
A properly weighted die
Okay, normally, sure. But what if I cross my fingers and kick my heels and rub my lucky clover?
I don't know but if you rub my lucky clover you'll get a little squirt of luck.
then it's 4% each result. you don't want to know what happens with the missing 20%.
