Luck

When you're thrust into danger, your skills might help, but sometimes, luck is your best ally. If you're lucky, what could be fatal might well just pass you by untouched. But luck is not infinite, and the more you make use of it, the more it will desert you in your time of need...

In Recovery, luck is a metric of your 'health' and can be tracked or manipulated using the Tarnished Coin. You have 10 luck points at the beginning of the game, and the higher your luck, the higher the chance that you receive the better outcome from dangerous events. With each of these events survived however, your luck will drop, until you run out entirely... And then, your time is counted. Once your luck hits 0, it's only a matter of time before the strange phenomena of the hospice take advantage of that to make you their next victim. There are however ways to restore luck and delay your fate, including eating Rare Candies, although these opportunities are rare. Thus, do not squander your luck!
