PFS StandardFortune's Fate

Source Divine Mysteries pg. 242
Luck is more than just a flick of a card or a roll of the dice; what some consider pure chance can often be attributed to an individual’s drive to achieve a goal. The gods of luck who make up Fortune’s Fate understand and promote this little “secret” of the cosmos. They don’t believe in simply letting circumstance guide everything, which could lead to destructive chaos. Followers of Fortune’s Fate tend to enter situations understanding the odds and know that a gold coin placed in the right hand or a well-timed spell can tip those odds in their favor. They also know that every plan contains some element of risk and they thrive by blurring the line between luck and daring.

Of course, the deities of Fortune’s Fate are still whimsical and aren’t above reaching out to tweak a worshipper’s fortune at just the right moment. This often is a subtle as tweaking the shuffle of a deck of cards or a momentary breeze that catches the corner of a die; these gods never go so far as to actually cheat (at least not in a way that would get a devotee caught!). Sometimes, they will even place bets among each other over the outcome of an individual’s audacious scheme, though none among them ever really hopes that the person will outright fail.
