Backstory
Aedan the Leprechaun has been banned from every casino in the planes of both Earth and Fae. Now, he spends his days starting tabs and fights in any bar that will still let him in, and some that won't. Rumor has it, patrons who share a drink with the Leprechaun -and avoid meeting with his quick temper or quicker fists- will see their fortunes turn around for the better. Rumor also has it, that when Aedan is really in his cups, he'll ramble to you about his lost love, Lady Luck herself, who he'd do anything to see just one more time.

Extra Info:
3.5s gun reload time, scales downward with spirit.

Each time the gun is reloaded, it's damage, fire rate, and projectiles per shot are randomly determined from a range. These values briefly appear above his head upon reload in the form of three symbols that look like slot machine results.

Some silly design ideas:

Light melee animation - Swing pot of gold at enemy
Heavy melee animation - Takes off the his hat and punch through the top

Aedan's gun is a miniature slot machine that shoots out gold coins. When he reloads it, he grabs a handful of coins from his pot of gold, stuffs them in the gun, then pulls the lever arm.

Technical Notes:
Luckbringer Stack expire independently of each other. This is to balace out the fact that there is no stack limit.

Probability Increase is multiplicative. For instance if Aedan has 10 stack of Luckbringer (+50% Probability Increase), his damage evasion chance goes from 5% to 7.5%, and his chance to proc Tesla Bullets goes from 15% to 22.5%.

Damage Evasion means any instance of damage has a chance to be ignored (though not any add-on effects from the source). This includes bullets, ability damage, or ticks from damage over time.

Misfire means an enemy spends their ammo as if they had shot their gun, but rainbow confetti comes out instead of any projectiles. Would not place bullet-dependent item procs on cooldown (Mystic Shot, Express Shot, Etc.)

Luckbringer T3 would give any probability increase, and cooldown reduction to allies within the aura. Could potentially grant the damage evasion chance, though that would be very powerful. Could also decrease enemy proc chances and increase misfire chance (though I found this hard to explain in the ability description without getting overly wordy).
