A bringer of fortune has a percentage chance to generate a good random event in the province where it is located. Multiple units with this ability do stack, though the chances for each to generate an event are rolled independently, allowing for many such events to be generated each turn. This ability allows for bypassing the normal random event limit incurred by "natural" events.

A bringer of misfortune is the negative form of this ability, which acts in much the same way, except that it generates negative events instead.
