Initiative Up

You take your turn earlier in the round.

Initiative Up improves a unit's position in the turn order, allowing them to act earlier in the round. A cat with Initiative Up gets to move, attack, and use abilities before slower units, seizing the tempo advantage in combat.

Initiative Up is subtly powerful because acting first means applying debuffs, dealing damage, or repositioning before the enemy can respond. It is especially valuable on support cats who need to buff or heal allies before enemies attack, or on burst damage dealers who can eliminate threats before they act. Unlike Speed Up which also grants movement range, Initiative Up focuses specifically on turn order priority.
