Agility

Description
Agility: A character's efficiency at avoiding attacks.

Agility determines how effective a character is at dodging other character's attacks. A character's Agility is also greatly effected by the type of defense level that they choose to employ while in combat. A more conservative defense setting yields an Agility buff, whereas more bold defense settings result in Agility penalties. The chart below illustrates these debuffs/bonuses: Agility may be greatly altered by other influences in the game as well. Some attack effects, such as Cripple, can penalize a character's Agility for a time, whereas a successful attack with the Stun effect prevents the target from dodging the next attack against him/her. Some rooms even provide characters with a boost to Agility if they have a specific ability, such as Flight or Swim. Use '+terrain' in rooms to see what type of Agility buff you may receive.

A character's Size also effects their ability to dodge effectively. This relationship grows more disproportionate as combatants' sizes increase in variance.
