Cautious

Type: Trait
Source: Unearthed Arcana

You are cautious in combat, even a bit cowardly, and you take more care to defend yourself than others. However, this caution renders you susceptible to fear effects.
Benefit: You gain an additional +1 dodge bonus to Armor Class whenever you fight defensively or take the total defense action. Drawback: You take a -1 penalty on saving throws made to resist fear effects.
Special: You cannot select this trait if you have immunity to fear or fear effects. If you later gain immunity to fear, you lose the benefit of this trait.
