Fortune
fortune, with a capital f, is the cl-ssical figure personifying fortune (with a lower-case f). usually depicted as a person with a wheel full of outcomes; whatever the wheel is spun to is what happens.
(for the idea of a personified abstraction, consider death, with a capital d, the cloaked figure with a scythe who personifies death, with a lower-case d.)
o, fortune, how thou hast abandoned me!
