Defences are temporary bonuses provided to your character through the use of skills, items, or quests, and most will persist until you leave the game or die. Your own defences are visible at any time by using the <tt>DEF</tt> command, while certain abilities such as [[Rituals#Tristitia|Tristitia]] allow you to view the defences of others.
