Good Luck
Posted on May 6, 2021 in iCore Trait
Good Luck represents a character’s positive accordance with The Pattern. With Good Luck, the character generates a series of happenstances leading to a better outcomes. It takes no time or specific activity to trigger. This aspect is visible with Aura Sight.
Fortune’s Favorite: In addition to the normal benefits of the personal luck, the character can positively influence random checks being made for them by the GM. This does not include any other character’s biased, direct actions. For example, the character could force the GM to re-check a result wherein a random weather check provided cover for the enemy they are tracking, or if a random check indicated a grenade bounced in their direction. They could not influence an opponent’s attack.

d20 [specific] Requirements: 1 Essence
Luck in basic d20 is to essentially be granted an improved, unearned inspiration three times a day, and goes against everything the game designers planned for inspiration itself.
Good Luck: This Represents a change to the d20 Rules. More reflective of the Good Luck and Bad Luck represented as Bane and Bless. Good Luck is changed to each instance providing a bonus of +4 to every attack and saving throw or any ability check for a single round from the point it is invoked until the end. Alternately, it can be used to gain an a automatic Simple Outcome on a single check if announced before its made, OR Advantage after a check (a new check, take the best of the two). It does not effect opponents actions. Use of personal Good Luck is once per Short Rest. The character can use the indirect Fortune’s Favor once per Long Rest.
Losing the Feature: The character adjusts their Essence as long as they possess this trait; returning towards their normal base 1 per Long Rest after they rid themselves of it.

Bound to the Pattern
Posted on March 26, 2018 in D20 Trait
Pattern Bound is a specific Pattern Expression for a character. The character’s Essence is bound more tightly to The Pattern, creating a narrower but deeper weave. This aspect is visible with Aura Sight.
D20 Bound to the Pattern
- If a character takes their first Feat (at 4th level) and it is directly related to their Natural Talent aptitude (for the Primary Class only), they may take it at 3rd level instead.
- The character’s level is increased by 1 for determining which Aptitude powers they have access to.
- Each additional class after the primary takes 1 Essence, and the multiclassing requirements go up by 2. All other multiclassing mechanics stay the same.
