*"[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXd0JR2SRE8 Queen]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9P1UzLSgYtk Spades]]", from Music/{{Styx}}, is about a [[DarkerAndEdgier not very nice]] incarnation of Lady Luck, whose affections tend to end quite badly for anyone on the receiving end.
-->''Luck is a lady whose smile is as cold as a stone\\
She'll bring you things, many things you might never have known!\\
But when your die is cast, she'll have the final laugh at you\\
She'll lock you in a duel where you come out the fool..."
** Made explicit in the chorus:
-->'Beware of the Queen of Spades!\\
Her black widow's curse might find you yet!\\
Beware of the love that you will regret!\\
Her love means only your death!''

* ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'': "The Lady" is possibly the single most powerful goddess on the Disc, despite having no dedicated worshipers, and the only temple ever built to her was destroyed in a natural disaster. Everyone hopes that she exists and smiles upon them at some point in their lives, and many people pay her lip-service through the repetitive prayer "please-oh-please-oh-please-oh-please..." She is the eternal rival of the god Fate, being one of the only entities capable of upsetting his plans. She is known to give her aid to certain mortals who entertain her, with Rincewind being one of her favourites, but must instantly leave the presence of and withdraw her favour from anyone who speaks her true name.

* ''VideoGame/NiNoKuniIIRevenantKingdom'': The city of Goldpaw, which is heavily dependent on casinos and gambling for its economy, has a statue of Lady Luck in front of the governor's residence. The statue's arms contain mechanisms that allow it to pick up and roll dice, and tradition dictates that when the governor wishes to raise taxes or makes a major political decision, they have the statue roll a die for them as a way of determining whether or not the goddess agrees with the ruling.

* ''Literature/DoomValleyPrepSchool'': Fate is also Lady Luck. She has dice for eyes, and will occasionally pick a person to be her 'chew toy', giving them incredibly bad luck, mixed with just enough good luck that her toy survives and can potentially come out on top, after being suitably humiliated and injured for her amusement of course.
