My goal is to add a new option to D&D so that lightly armored characters are viable, at the same time I want it balanced so if some characters take it and other don't neither overshadows the other. Now on with the feats. Defense Style Benefit: You gain a defense bonus equal to 30% of your level Improved Defense Style Prerequirements: Defensive Style Benefit: Your Defense equals 40% of your level Advanced Defense Style Prerequirements: Defense Style, Improved Defense syle Benefit: Your Defense equals 50% of your level Greater Defense Style Prerequirements: Defense Style, Improved Defense syle, Advanced Benefit: Your Defense equals 60% of your level Under this system if you wear armor you are not proficient with you suffer the normal penaltys and only benefit from 3/4th of the armor's given armor bonus (round down). At character creation a character can trade a like number of Armor Proficiency for a like number of Defense styles. Example: A fighter could trade his Medium and Heavy Armor Proficiencys for Defense style and Improved Defense Style and he could still wear Light Armor without Penalty.
