    O.L.D. Playtest Document: Book I - Characters (October 2014)

    I agree that Hardy doesn't sound like a DEFENSE skill as it sounds like being able to take a hit more than being able to avoid one. It sort of fits if you clarify that DEFENSE is for avoiding damaging blows rather than avoiding blows entirely, but as written currently that would be better...
