The land of waves was Yoko’s destination, a small cluster of islands to the west of her homeland (land of water). Due to the body of water that separated them, Yoko needed to travel by boat. It was after all quite unwise to swim the full way, it was close to three thousand miles away after all. So after secreting passage the youth boarded the salty seadog’s ship, and began her adventure, utilising her compass and map of the land of water to the best of her ability to ensure that they were on the correct heading, all the while holding tightly onto her good luck charm.

Luckbringer
Rank: "S"
Type: Secondary, 50 per Slot, Harnessed Gem
Effect: A harnessed Gem giving the person the ability of luck against saves vs fear, bonus with skills, and temporary Armour Points.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Across history many items and objects have been said to have the power of luck. Some have proved true, others false, and the true ability of still other objects remains unknown. Followers of Wrix, the Luckbringer, have researched, collected, and cataloged many of these items. A Gnome wizard named Jamin Forestdigger, a follower of Wrix, sought to add to the Luckbringer’s powers and began experimenting with different minerals. As befitting his faith, Forestdigger's success was a chance of luck. He'd been frustrated to this point, having tested several hundred minerals with no success. In a fit of rage he picked up a pair of sardonyx that had been sitting on a table and threw them against a wall. Later, picking the pieces up, he noticed that the two minerals had shattered into two cubes and resembled the dice that are the symbol of Wrix. When a pair of sardonyx are cut into cubes and set with the symbols associated with Wrix the Alchemy within the mineral is harnessed. The Alchemical Properties is only harnessed when 2 pieces of sardonyx are harnessed together, and once harnessed, the Alchemy only works when both "dice" are held together. A person that holds the dice benefits from a +5 luck bonus to Skills, a +1 luck bonus on saves versus fear effects, and receives 13 temporary Armour Points. Damage dealt to the bearer of the luck stone is removed from these temporary Armour Points first. If a person stops holding one or both of the luck stones they immediately lose all benefits, including the temporary Armour Points.
