Ballerina Cappuccina
The coffee-cup ballerina leads a formation twirl: choose one of your pieces (not the king) to step one square, then up to two allies that stood beside it may each step one square too. No captures, just choreography.

How it works
You draft Ballerina Cappuccina in Buff mode. Activated: you choose when to use it, and using it is your move for that turn.
As a tempo card, it buys time: an extra move, a skip, or a freeze.
“Plié, rond de jambe, checkmate threat.”
