@JeremyECrawford @ChrisPerkinsDnD Can Cutting Words affect Initiative Rolls? I know Jack Of All Trades affects it, so I'm curious about this interaction

The bard's Cutting Words feature in D&D can affect another creature's ability check.
When a creature rolls initiative, it's making a Dexterity check—a type of ability check.
Cutting Words can therefore affect a creature's initiative roll. #DnD https://t.co/hW0sxWdWJH
