“if unit initiates combat, reduces damage from
foe’s first attack during combat by 40%” to unit
for 1 turn. Boosts Special damage by 30% of
unit’s Atk.

After combat, if unit’s Special triggered,
grants Atk/Def+6, “unit can move 1 extra
space (that turn only; does not stack),” and
“if unit initiates combat, reduces damage from
foe’s first attack during combat by 40%” to
unit and all allies for 1 turn (bonus granted
to allies even if unit’s HP reaches 0).
This skill can only be equipped by its original unit.
