There's these d8s that use numerals for 1-8 and pips for 1-4 repeated twice. With three different sets of symbols (say by adding roman numerals) you could have a d12 that also functions as a d6 and a d4, though I can't say I've seen one. Trying to put 3 sets of symbols on each die face may create readability issues though.

I think there's other dice out there that function as more than one die but I can't find them atm. There's also ones that are basically just a fidget spinner with various segments or sets of fidget spinners for each die, but you don't actually roll those so I'm not counting them.

These are the ones I started with. I wish they had focused more on the d4 line than the d6 line but that'd be like asking Wizards of the Coast to make good martials

Chessex ones available in a few variations with roman numerals

pipped 12 sided d4s, a bit more expensive

And if you really have money to burn, these are the only metal ones I could reliably find. It's a chonky boy, bigger than a d12 you'll normally get, basically the size of a d20, maybe even a bit bigger.

There was a game a few years ago called Nibiru that apparently has a decently priced set of 6 metal 12-sided d4s with cuneiform symbols, but it doesn't seem like anyone in the US has the dice in stock (I found one website but I'm pretty sure it was gonna scam me). This appears to be the publisher's website from the UK, though it has had that message about restocking their warehouse since at least this past July so idk, but they say the dice are in stock. Searching on Google were also some Spanish and German sites that maybe had them in stock, but I have no idea if those sites are reputable.

Who needs glances when you have organization? There's also versions that use pips or roman numerals or other symbols to make them visually distinct. You could also get them in a different color. Inferior shapes should never be accepted for convenience.

(best d4 shape is dodecahedron with 1-4 repeated 3 times, fight me)

It's a spindown die for mid to high level boss monster HP

There's 31 gray dots and 33 gray names listed. How am I supposed to pick the right gray‽

Since it says "full human" I like to think the rest are like half-human or something, so they all technically have that in common, even if their other halves are all different

Human walks into another room:

I've never seen this thing before in my life.

 

Was looking through Druid cantrips when I was struck by inspiration (no not that kind. no not that other kind)
