[QUOTE="Hawk Diesel, post: 7610981, member: 59848"] I like the luck point idea best so far. The other way I might handle it would be similar to True Strike. If it requires an action to use, I don't see the need to make a limit per rest, especially if it carries a potential negative effect when used. So one way to handle it would be: [b]Coin of Weal and Woe[/b] [i]Uncommon Wondrous Item, Requires Attunement[/i] This coin has one face engraved with the the visage of Tymora, and the other of Beshaba, the gods of good luck and bad luck. As an action, you can flip this coin (represented by either flipping a real coin, or rolling a dice. If you choose to flip a real coin, heads represents Tymora, and tales represents Beshaba. If you roll a dice, even numbers represent the coin falling with Tymora's face up, while odds have the coin landing Beshaba face up). If the coin lands Tymora face up, your next d20 roll is rolled with advantage. If the coin lands Beshaba face up, your next d20 roll is rolled with disadvantage. If you roll the same result three times in a row in single game session, the coin disappears, randomly appearing in the possession of a different sentient being somewhere within 1,000 miles. --- I personally don't see this as much different than the guidance cantrip or the true strike cantrip.
