Off-Guard

You’re distracted or otherwise unable to focus your full attention on defense. You take a -2 circumstance penalty to AC. Some effects give you the off-guard condition only to certain creatures or against certain attacks. Others-especially conditions-can make you universally off-guard against everything. If a rule doesn’t specify that the condition applies only to certain circumstances, it applies to all of them; for example, many effects simply say “The target is off-guard.”
