My dude has 5 initiative and it seems like I’m either going last all the time despite everyone else being at 2-3 initiative. But at the same time it seems like everyone else gets to at least more or do something before I can get my first turn?

Am I missing something?

I was thinking running Fane or Ifan but fluff man no idea who to bring with them and Fane seems to either be considered the best first run or second run character to bring.

Charisma is the best stat, similar advantages to fighter and you get EB alongside booming blade and short rest nova potential like it? Any real reason to use over BM besides less feats?
