Sorry, but if I understand what you mean by initials, that is not the case. 
Consider

   .lettrine>p::first-letter {
        font-size    : 3rem ;
        line-height  : 0 ;
   }

This produces a raised large character at the beginning of a paragraph. It does 
not automatically accommodate leading quotation marks and such, so some tuning 
may be needed, and of course you have to tag the paragraph with the appropriate 
class.

Similarly, you can set the first line of a paragraph to smallcap.
