Whistle

A whistle is a small instrument that fits into traveling equipment and may accompany a hero from childhood games to adventures. A simple tune can easily become associated with a memory, region, or person. In the story, it may be an ordinary craftsperson's product or a farewell gift; its effect does not depend on rarity or an elaborate appearance.

It is useful for small musical performances, rest, and playing together. It can also produce an agreed sound signal, but neither the range nor reliability of that use is automatically unlimited. Its unusual catalog feature is the connection to Luck, which must be distinguished from the Charisma used by other instruments. The whistle therefore does not improve every social interaction or every chance event.

Rules effect: +1 LUCK during a musical performance. The price is 3 sp. The item is reusable rather than a single-use supply. Its listed effect applies to the situation it is intended for. Additional bonuses, other forms of protection, and new magical abilities are not part of this entry.
