Feather Sword (Japanese: フェザーソード Feather sword) is a weapon skill in the sword category which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; it is a personal weapon of the young variation of Caeda. Feather Sword is a skill that deals bonus damage to sword, lance, axe, colorless bow, and armored units; additionally when such a foe initiates combat or the user's HP is high, it allows its user to counterattack before the foe's first attack.

Enables【Canto (2)】.

At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants
Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit, grants bonus to
unit's Atk/Spd = number of allies within 3
spaces × 3 (max 6), and reduces damage
from foe's first attack by 40% during combat
("first attack" normally means only the first
strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice,"
it means the first and second strikes).

【Canto (2)】
After an attack, Assist skill, or structure
destruction, unit can move 2 space(s).

(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(2)】を発動可能

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、
さらに、攻撃、速さが
周囲3マス以内の味方の人数×3だけ上昇(最大6)、
最初に受けた攻撃と2回攻撃のダメージを40%軽減
(最初に受けた攻撃と2回攻撃:
 通常の攻撃は、1回目の攻撃のみ
 「2回攻撃」は、1~2回目の攻撃)

【再移動(2)】
自分から攻撃、補助、地形破壊の行動をした後、
直後に2マス移動できる

(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)
