Concerning luck

Don't think so. But alchemists give you more gold if you alchemize fire or earth gems for gold. That's all.

Internal alchemy is a Tien Chi spell that has side effect which might turn you insane.

I was asking if luck, and which one, might affect wether mage turns insane or not?

Personal Luck only potentially affects the damage part of spells. For example, if you cast Falling Frost on a Lucky unit, it might avoid the damage but will have Frozen effect(or whatever it's called).

Also, personal Luck can also help you avoid the damage that some rituals do. For example, Seeking Arrow is a damaging ritual and personal Luck protects 50% from that.

So no, as far as I know personal Luck does not affect anything other than damage.

What of Twist Fate?

I believe Twist Fate works the same way, but it only protects 100% from the first damage. It doesn't seem to protect against side effects(like the chill from a Falling Frost).

The Twist Fate effect from an Astral 9 Bless is a little wierd in that commanders wearing a Blessed Shroud and Prophets are Blessed all the time, so they can get Twist Fate protection from Rituals (but I think it is only once a turn, so I'd need to check).
