Bravery is definitely one of the bigger attributes that helps William Hartmann in his everyday life. It takes a lot of bravery to be willing to drive on the roads of Edmonton in winter, and Hartmann has been getting more used to the snowy weather in his time with the Blizzard. While Switzerland has its share of icy roads, Hartmann didn't drive much there, and Vancouver is more rainy winters than flat-out snow. You never know when you're going to have to drive without the aid of road lines because they're buried under the snow. Defensive Read is another very useful attribute, as it allows Hartmann to react quickly to people who don't know how to handle Edmonton's icy road conditions and keep himself safe. Even when not driving, Balance is an extremely useful skill to have when the sidewalks are iced over from a late-night snowstorm, keeping Hartmann healthy and tearing it up for the Blizzard.
