"TYCHE (Τύχη from τυγχάνω = to happen), the goddess of chance, a capricious dispenser of good and ill fortune, for this also called "fate", "fortune". Some attributed her fatherhood to Zeus, the supreme god.

She was associated with Agathos Daimon and with Nemesis, who, as an abstraction, represented punishment of overprosperous man and was believed to act as a moderating influence. She was often represented blindfolded and with various devices signifying uncertainty and risk."
