❖Personal:
Personality: Abby is a sweet, friendly girl with a pure heart-- which makes sense, due to the fact that her powers were granted to her by the Dagda, whose name, when literally translated, means "The Good God" or "God of All That Is Good". If she were not destined to have this kind of personality, he would not have blessed her with her ability in the first place.

Goals: "I wanna be a singer an' a violinist! An' I wanna join Celtic Woman! They rock!"
Fears:
Heights "I jus' don' like 'em..."
Favorites:
Food- Steak and potatoes "Simple yet effective."
Color- Green "Yeah, it's stereotypical I guess, but..."
Music- Modern and traditional Irish music, classical violin music, the Beatles, and some American rock music from the 1960s through the 80s. She also has expressed interest in a capella bands such as Van Canto. Her favorite song is "The Rocky Road to Dublin", an Irish folk song.
Role Model: "I'd say me mum, actually."
Catch Phrase/Motto: "Just go with the flow, and if that don't work hit the bottle." "Well, it's Aiden's motto, but... Yeah."
❧Skills, Abilities, and Powers

Singing "I'm a real good singer!"
Violin playing "I dunno why, but I was always good at this, an' I got even better with lessons."
Irish dancing "I'm real good at this, an' i'm especially good at step-dancin'. I can even do it while playin' my violin at th' same time! And sometimes I can do that stuff an' sing at th' same time too!"
Abilities:
Running "I'm really fast fer my size!"
Hiding "I always win when playin' hide an' seek with me folks."
Powers:
Good Luck Field: Abby's only superhuman ability is the manipulation of probability and chance to "bring good luck" onto others. Abby is incapable of controlling her power of good luck, which manifests as an invisible, incredibly powerful aura around her and the immediate area she is in, for a radius of twenty feet. (If a magic-user senses her aura, it will appear to them as a light green, semi-transparent dome of energy that surrounds Abby and everything around her within that twenty-foot radius.) In general, this field positively affects all beings within it unless they are of an "Evil" alignment, and at times when Abby has been in immediate danger of serious physical harm from "evil" people, this "good luck field" seems to "shut off" its own area affect while still working for Abby; this allows her to get out of many unpleasant situations unscathed. As with her power in general, Abby cannot control this when it happens.
To go into more detail about how the field works: For Abby herself, her power translates to: "Things will work out for the better"; if she's in mortal danger, for example, something will happen to make sure she stays alive, while everything else she does has increased chances of working out well for her. If she is injured, she will wind up healing more quickly and more completely than most people, despite the fact that she doesn't have a "real" healing factor. For those within the field around her, the field increases chances of success at whatever they do, so long as they are not of an "Evil" alignment. If they're "evil", the field will not help them at all and in fact will likely hinder them somehow; for example, attempting to use a gun will cause it to jam or miss its target completely, or their powers will temporarily fail them. As for other people, the amount of good luck they receive is tied to their morality: The more good the person is within Abby's field, the more often things will work out well for them.
Basically, the hierarchy goes like this: Abby > Heroes > Neutral people > Anti-heroes (depending on how heroic they are) > Villains (who never benefit from her field).
Weaknesses: Barring the fact that her good luck ability tends to keep Abby from getting hurt (or at least seriously so), she has all the weaknesses of an ordinary human.
Though Abigail does not know it yet, there is a failsafe for her powers: Should she become too reckless with her well-being, or attempt to abuse her power for something completely selfish (such as attempting to rig a lottery for herself or con someone out of something simply because she thinks she can), her powers will not simply shut off-- they will backfire completely on her and bring her constant bad luck for a short period of time, and will affect only her.
Usually, Abby's good luck field keeps her from getting injured; however, at times when this is not the case, her good luck field will shut off if she is knocked unconscious or similarly incapacitated, while remaining active for her.
Technology/Weapons/Paraphernalia: None that she actually carries with her all the time apart from her watch.
History
Abigail O'Connor is the youngest member of the O'Connor family. She was born in Tuam, County Galway, Ireland, "on the first day of spring, when four-leaf clovers were blooming", according to her mother and father. Abigail was noted to have a small birth-mark on her lower stomach, in the shape of a four-leaf clover, and the O'Connors took this as a sign that Abigail was good luck for them. They were absolutely correct, but none of them, not even Abigail herself, ever knew why this was so: Upon her conception sixteen years ago, she was blessed by the Dagda, the "all-father" of Irish mythology, to be "a constant bearer of good fortune for as long as she lived".
Abby has recently moved from Ireland to New York City, with the rest of her family, when her brother Johnny received a job offer from a large computer corporation, and Abby has spent her time adjusting to life in America, still completely unaware of her powers.
