Child's Skull

A small, grinning skull balanced on the head, providing 3 Shield and a terrifying tempo boost. Child's Skull grants ExtraBasicAttacks so the wearer lands additional hits per turn, and the OverrideBasicAttack passive replaces their normal attack with an entirely different move. The combination of extra attacks and an altered attack pattern can dramatically change how a cat fights, making it a powerful transformation piece for cats whose default basic attack isn't particularly impressive.

ExtraBasicAttacks grants one or more additional basic attacks per action or per turn, directly multiplying the wearer's output. OverrideBasicAttack then replaces the standard attack entirely with a different move — potentially a more powerful strike, an area attack, or a different damage type. Together, these passives mean the wearer both attacks more often and attacks differently, fundamentally changing their combat behavior from what their base stats would suggest.

Most effective on characters who already deal good damage but have a weak or plain basic attack, since OverrideBasicAttack replaces that weak hit with something better. High-SPD builds benefit most from ExtraBasicAttacks since they act more frequently, compounding the attack-per-turn bonus. The Shield: 3 provides a small but useful buffer in the head slot. Avoid if the override attack is weaker than the character's default for any reason.
