+ * @name Planescape_Belief_Points_Luck_Roll
+ * 
+ * @author:  David Mora <[email protected]>
+ * 
+ * @description:
+ * This is inspired in belief points from the Planewalkers Handbook for AD&D 2nd Edition
+ * 
+ * We have a custom ability called "cua_0" that is used to store the belief points for each character
+ * 
+ * We also created a feature that gives you a bonus to your rolls based on your belief points, 
+ * same as it was in the Planewalkers Handbook
+ * 
+ * With this system we ditched the whole Inspiration system and replaced it with a system that actually represents
+ * how the multiverse reacts to a character being aligned with their beliefs
+ * 
+ * Luck rolls are made whenever a situation is uncertain and the DM needs to resolve whether something is available or who is affected
+ * for example:
+ * 
+ * - A character is looking for a rare item in a shop
+ * - An enemy is going to attack someone in the party, but the DM is not sure who
+ * - A character is trying to get information from an NPC and the DM is not sure if the NPC knows the information
+ * - A character asks if "it is raining" and the DM calls for luck to see if it is raining
+ * - Some other situation where the DM is not sure if something is available
+ * 
+ * This macro will roll for luck for all characters on the map
+ * we are using a custom ability created with addon https://foundryvtt.com/packages/dnd5e-custom-skills 
+ * if you want to use a different ability like charisma or wisdom, you can change the luckyAbility variable
+ * try with different abilities like "cha", "wis", "int", "str", "dex", "con"
