Because of the Phrik used in it's creation, this set of armor is extremely blaster resistant. Also, it is equipped with Cortosis forged gauntlets, that serve to nullify any lightsaber they come into contact with.
Strengths:
- Resistant: The Standard soldier or Force-User will have trouble impacting through this armor if all they are equipped with is a blaster or lightsaber.
- Light: Because of the material used this armor is fairly light for the quantity of metal and it's density.
- Conductible: Using a form of electricity on this armor could result in a devastating shock to the user, because of the considerable amount of metals that connect with each other.
- Non-Acclimatized: In extreme temperatures the armor will take on that climate, usually to the user's pain. In extreme heat the armor will work as an oven to the person inside, in the extreme cold if the armor connects with skin it can cause frostbite.
Forging the armor of a Jedi Lord is seen as a ceremonious and honorable milestone for a young Jedi of House Malvern. In the times before the Gulag Plague the House Lord or Master of the young Jedi Lord would take his ward into the wilds of several different planets, forcing the boy to collect the raw materials needed for the armor.
In the coming days of the new galaxy the right of passage has significantly mellowed. Now a Jedi Lord was expected to meditate for several days and nights, reflecting on hundreds of materials and designs until finally it was crafted in his mind. The young Lord would describe the armor, in great detail, to a master armor smith who would undertake the task of acquiring the materials himself. Adron had done all of this at the conclusion of crafting his own set of armor. Much like his fathers, it turned out spine-chilling in nature, seemingly the armor for a Dark Lord it was imposing in it's maintenance of the Malvern's tradition of Gothic attire and decor.
In his first coming days to the armor Adron struggled to adjust to wearing a full set of defensive metal as apposed to the light cloth and robes of a Jedi. However, in time he took to it well. Taking special care of the gauntlets, he found the ability to cancel out a lightsaber was one he could surely use. The armor creates a difficulty in fluid movement for new users such as Adron, and only time will improve upon such things.
Lightsaber forms such as Makashi, where paced combat is key, are exceptionally damaged by the significant loss in grace that one takes from donning the armor. However, the defense it gives the wearer is well worth the moderate sacrifice.
