"Congratulations Steve, you get to start this wonderful game. Roll the die and move your favorite colored pawn forwards that many spaces"

Steve found that the a regular looking die appeared in his right hand. He was freaked out quite a bit, he tried to get up from his chair but he couldn't. He could tell from the other guys here they were glued in place too. He went ahead and rolled the die figuring it might be better if he just went ahead and played along.
