Drop = Drop x amount of dice from the rolled set and keep the rest
Keep = Keep x amount of dice from the rolled set and drop the rest
Reroll = Drop x amount of dice from the rolled set and re-roll the dropped set of diceEach of the functions act in a similar fashion where the format must fit the following:
<Number of Dice (optional)><Dice Type><Function (optional)><Number of Dice Checked (optional)><Low or High (optional)><Check Limit>
