And eventually, they each decided to stop fighting it, and try to steer it instead of just going with the flow.
So when one guy was leading an army and trying to buy some grain to feed all of them, the forces of evil were spreading famine and pestilence. They got some grain off a ship, checked a few bags and they were full of rot and maggots.
Then the guy says "Wait a minute, I'm a Main Character! Someone check another bag." And every single other bag was in pristine condition.
Someone pointed out the odds that out of all the bags they chose at random, it was just the first few that were bad, and he waves it off as Bad Luck.
But the point is that it's reality warping itself around him to make it bad luck that they would chose the few bags out of hundreds that were spoiled.
So what I'm saying is that over a long enough arc, you can make it cool for them to control it.
