Keep on the Shadowfell Wizard Pre-gen Will Defense

Could someone explain how the KotS Wizard has a Will Defense of 15? He has a WIS/CHA maximum mod of +1, a human feat that gives him a +1, and he's a Wizard (for +2), so I think his Will Defense should be 14. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Humans get +1 to Will, Reflex and Fortitude (in addition to the character then taking the feat Human Perserverence for another +1 to each of those).

The "feat" I referred to in the original post was the human inherent +1 bonus to FORT/REF/WILL. I don't think the pre-gen takes any other feats to give him a bonus to these defenses at level 1. The "human perseverence" feat gives him a bonus to saving throws, not defenses. So I think it should still be 14.

But since no one else is complaining about this, I must be wrong. What aspect of the Wizard pre-gen gives him a Will defense of 15? Can someone enumerate all the bonuses that add up to 15?

Thanks,

Hmm... 10 + 1 racial (Human) + 1 ability (Wisdom) + 2 (Wizard) = 14

No idea.

Edit:
Fortitude = 10 + 1 racial (Human) + 1 ability (Constitution) = 12 - ok
Reflex = 10 + 1 racial (Human) + 4 ability (Intelligence) = 15 - ok

Hm, still no idea.
