When you create a character roll a seventh stat, Luck, on 3d6. Even if you use alternate methods for the main six leave Luck at 3d6 because it will change quite a bit. Luck provides an adjustment according to the following table:
Luck stat | Adjustment |
---|---|
4-5 | -2 |
6-8 | -1 |
9-12 | 0 |
13-15 | +1 |
16-17 | +2 |
18 | +3 |
Before each session each player rolls on the luck effect table. This determines what his luck adjustments affects for that session. I recommend making little fold down cards or clips for your DM screen so you don't forget when luck goes wrong.
Percentile Roll | This session's luck effect |
---|---|
01-10 | Add luck adjustment to all rolls to hit you |
11-20 | Add luck adjustment to all damage done to you |
21-30 | Add luck adjustment to all damage rolls |
31-40 | Add luck adjustment to all to reaction rolls |
41-50 | Add luck adjustment to all to hit rolls |
51-60 | Add luck adjustment to saves against poison/death ray |
61-70 | Add luck adjustment to monster moral |
71-80 | Add luck adjustment to saves against magic wand, magic spell, or magic staff |
81-90 | Add luck adjustment to saves against turn to stone, paralysis, or dragon breath |
91-00 | Add luck adjustment to hireling moral |
If you roll doubles on the luck adjustment roll to see if your fortune has changed:
