Default Re: Luck/Turmoil versus Nothing.

They don't do the same thing at all.

Fortune teller prevents bad events *after* they are generated. (It also works against Baleful Star iirc, which Luck scales don't effect at all).

Luck scales biases the die roll when determining what event is generated. I believe that there is some list of all the events that could possibly be generated for your scales, ordered from 'best' to 'worst'. A die is rolled that determines which of these events happens. Luck/Misfortune biasses the die up or down the list.
