Dexterity

Dexterity measures a creature quickness, reflex, hand-eye coordination and overall grace in movements. High dexterity allows a creature to move around stealthily, and to evade direct melee damage and large AoE explosions. It also grants some resistance to acid damage, allowing the creature to quickly react to acid exposure.

Dexterity is the main attribute of nimble fighters and furtive characters that wear light equipment to prevent armor from interfering with their combat abilities and hold (or double-wield) small, fast weapons.

Reaching a Dexterity score of 20 gives the character a unique powerful boost to evasion ratings.
