    ANSWER (Congrats acoustikarl): The common thing, is each word has three letters in consecutive alphabetical order:

    DEFt
    caNOPy
    STUn

    I was thinking "gross" as in 144, but that is most likely wrong. What is meant by "number of Graces?"

    LOL! Nope, not 144, but it is over 100. Number of graces refers to a popular saying

    Content might be gross too but just due to inappropriate words in it we should delete and skip this riddle...

    What do the words DEFT, CANOPY and STUN have in common? HINT: It is one common characteristic and has nothing to do with the number of letters, vowels, consonants or syllables in any of the words.
    I would have to say that the answer DOES have something to do with the number leters, constanants and vowels, according to the correct answer there are a certain number of consecutive constanants and vowels in alphabetical order.... the hint threw me off into thinking that the only thing they had in common is that they are all embolden capitalised words :P

    No, it doesn't have anything to do with the number of letters, number of consonants, or number of vowels. The ONLY thing that matters, the the aplhabetization of the words.
