Luck is a rollable characteristic (like a skill) used when no other skill fits — hoping a floorboard doesn't creak, or that the one book you need happens to still be on the shelf. Some game modes also allow investigators to spend Luck points after a roll to improve a failed result, at the cost of permanently reducing their Luck score. Luck refreshes slowly, if at all, making it a resource to be spent carefully rather than relied on.
