Factory Advice Wanted: Lightside Amulet

[Megan Holliway]

Hello Factory Gurus and Savants!

I'm hoping to sub a unique Force Sensitive amulet that grants it's wearer specialized protection against the Darkside of the Force. This item will be created by Jedi Alchemy. Thus, questions for the pros out there?

1. Would this be a technology sub?
2. What would be considered a "balanced" approached to Darkside resistance and description? IE: Would one say: High - Very High - Extreme, etc. Or would a concise description of situational uses be better suited? IE: Protects the user against mental domination, telekinetic subjugation, and vampiric draining. ...Or, both?
3. Would I be required to cite similar artifacts from the wiki for increased credibility or could such an item stand alone on concept?

Can't speak for how things work these days, but if I was making it I'd go with...

1) Yep
2) One fun way would be to combine those approaches, e.g. None for mentalism, High for telekinesis.
3) I'd try to find one or two comparable thingies, shouldn't be hard. Gauntlet of Kressh the Younger might be sorta similar if I remember right.

protecting from draining effects is very hard. really the best counter to force drain is either create a loop with your own force drain (Ashina dn Spencer taught that to Shinju thank you)

but a powerful technique like Force of Will would cover all of those just you have to manage to maintain concentration at all times.

Character is an NFU. So, are there no "Legends" options here or am I just kark outta luck for that one? Lol.

 

[Junko Ike]

oh a non force users then yes there are options Megan Holliway there are one or three options... just depends on how squeamish you are.

I made maybe 2-3 years back a sub for someone chancellor to have force negating clothing. It can be done.

Junko Ike

Excellent.

goes off to steal Ayden Caters hat

Megan Holliway

no I did not make his hat, it was one of the republics chancellors clothing pieces. made a force negation bubble to protect from influences. Just ou know a biotech tank top can be a little juicy

Junko Ike

It's fine. Lol. If this proves too complicated, expensive, or silly I'll just go the - "I touched the magic watchamacallit and got the Force Dead like the Vong. Oops. Oh well." - route.

No biggie. Thanks for the advice.

If you find approximately what you want I can try and work the sub for you so you don't have to sweat it.

 

[Megan Holliway]

Zaiden Dean

Ah. Thanks a ton. However, writing up the sub will actually be the most therapeutic part of the whole process. Lol.

Concept design. Balance. Discussion. Legends Canon. The RP implementation. Those are the sweaty parts for me. Nothing more anxious than raw creativity.
