luckiness
State of fortune
Luckiness is the state or quality of being lucky—having good fortune or favorable outcomes.
The word appears less often than you might expect; speakers usually reach for *luck* instead: What luck! rather than What luckiness!
But luckiness works when describing someone's general tendency toward fortunate outcomes: Her luckiness at cards was legendary.
