Be sure you get that stone set into something you can wear, the luck stone only works if it is in your possession! Hey, I wonder if setting it in the hilt of a dagger or sword would increase your chances in battle? Meh, a slight change in probability doesn't discriminate in how you wear it, so strike that thought.... what do you think? Are you going to set it into a ring, a necklace? Oh! Maybe, an earring? Dare I say, a nose ring?Call me an old fogey, but a gem that size coming off the side of your nose might look like a really shiney glowing booger, and I would hate for you to diminish your beautiful face with glowy phlem, but I am eager to see how all of you make use of your stones."
