Table 1-7: Luck


Score Luck Modifier
3-4 -1
5-16 +0
17-20 +1

Some folks are just lucky, for better or worse. Whether they've got a guardian angel looking
over their shoulder or a devil at their heels, blind fate has an impact on their lives. This is
reflected in the Luck Attribute. The modifier for this attribute has no specific application,
but instead can be used by the Referee when players are attempting an action that is
completely left to the whims of fate. In such cases the Referee should roll 1d6 and apply the
character's Luck modifier. If the die is a 6, then fate is with the character in one way or
another.

It should be noted that the Referee should not allow their players to abuse Luck and the
Luck modifier. It is recommended that a character not be permitted a Luck roll more than
once per session. With the Referee's permission, a character can permanently reduce their
Luck attribute by a single point in order to re-roll a failed saving throw. Characters
determine their Luck attribute by rolling 3d6.
