Grants Spd+3. Unit can counterattack
regardless of foe's range. If unit's Spd > foe's
Spd, reduces damage from attacks during
combat and from area-of-effect Specials
(excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials) by
percentage = difference between stats × 4
(max 40%).

At start of turn, if unit is adjacent to only beast
or dragon allies or if unit is not adjacent to any
ally, unit transforms (otherwise, unit reverts).
If unit transforms, grants Atk+2, and if unit
initiates combat, inflicts Atk/Def-4 on foe
during combat and foe cannot make a
follow-up attack.

Grants Spd+3. Unit can counterattack
regardless of foe's range. At start of combat,
if foe's HP ≥ 50%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4
to unit during combat. If unit's Spd > foe's Spd,
reduces damage from attacks during combat
and from area-of-effect Specials (excluding
Røkkr area-of-effect Specials) by percentage
= difference between stats × 4 (max 40%).
At start of turn, if unit is adjacent to only beast
or dragon allies or is not adjacent to any ally,
unit transforms (otherwise, unit reverts). If unit
transforms, grants Atk+2 to unit, inflicts
Atk/Def-X on foe during combat (X = number
of spaces from start position to end position
of whoever initiated combat + 3; max 6), and
also, if X ≥ 5, reduces damage from foe's first
attack by 30% during combat.

Enables【Canto (Rem. +1)】.

Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1).
At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants
Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit and neutralizes
effects that guarantee foe's follow-up attacks
and effects that prevent unit's follow-up
attacks during combat.

【Canto (Rem. +1)】
After an attack, Assist skill, or structure
destruction, unit can move again.

The distance of the movement is the remaining
movement the unit had before the actions listed
above+1 (If unit used a movement skill that warps
them, the remainder is 0).

(Unit moves according to movement type. Once
per turn. Cannot attack or assist. Only highest
value applied. Does not stack. After moving,
if a skill that grants another action would be
triggered (like with Galeforce), Canto will
trigger after the granted action. Unit's base
movement has no effect on movement granted.
Cannot warp (using skills like Wings of Mercy)
a distance greater than unit would be able to
move with normal Canto movement.)
【再移動(残り+1)】を発動可能

奥義が発動しやすい(発動カウント-1)

戦闘開始時、自身のHPが25%以上なら、
戦闘中、攻撃、速さ、守備、魔防+4、
敵の絶対追撃を無効、かつ、自分の追撃不可を無効

【再移動(残り+1)】
自分から攻撃、補助、地形破壊の行動をした後、

移動できる距離は、上記の行動前に移動した分の
残り+1(ワープ移動時は残りは0として扱う)

(自身の移動タイプで移動。
 例:歩行は、林には移動しづらい)
(攻撃、補助、地形破壊不可)
(同系統効果重複時、最大値適用)(1ターンに1回のみ)
(行動直後に再行動可能にするスキル発動時は、
 再行動で条件を満たせば、再移動が可能)
(再移動できる距離は、通常の移動の距離とは無関係)
(再移動の距離の上限を超えたワープ移動はできない)
