Characters with this talent have a mutual minus one to reactions with wizards.
IQ 10 Hardy(3) This character has trained up their fortitude and so rolls one less die on ST rolls to resist poisons and environmental hazards. Prerequisite: ST 12 or being a Halfling.
IQ 11 Enhanced Dodge(2) This character may take a Dodge action even when engaged (but not in HTH), their dodges are effective against all weapons and other melee and ranged attacks, missile and thrown spells and cause all attackers to add two dice (rather than one) on attack rolls to hit them. Does not stack with any other defensive talent. Prerequisite: Acrobatics.

I like these, though I would implement them differently. For example, I have something very similar to your 'Enhanced Dodge' as one of the Powers for my Mystic Monk portfolio. I think 'Resolve' and 'Hardy' would make good Powers as well... maybe as part of a Mage Hunter and Wild Warden power-sets.
As a talent, however, I think 'Resolve' should be higher IQ than 10... 12 or 13 seems more appropriate.
