SPECIAL FEATURES

• Boots: Equipped with basic Magno-Grip technology and formed from Gammaplast.
• Alchemical Enhancement: Other than the Armorweave and Gammaplast components, almost every other part of the armor has been enhanced with Sith Alchemy.
• Force Imbued: In addition to strengthening the base material, the Sith Alchemy has allowed for the armor's wearer to have easier usage of various Force Abilities such as: Enhance Attribute, A weaker and shorter yet more controlled Force Rage, A slightly improved Force Lightning and Force Choke/Telekinesis, and a basic version of Consume Essence.

STRENGTHS

• Dark Imbued: The Dark Side presence that the armor exudes often causes slight senses of dread and despair within individuals, giving off an overall unsettling vibe and a rather imposing presence. It also allows for a boost to concentration and focus when using Force related powers and abilities.
• Lightly Armored: Armored enough to take a couple blaster shots and even survive a glancing Lightsaber strike or two, the lack of a fully armored suit allows for very good agility and mobile maneuvers whilst still providing general protection overall.

WEAKNESSES

• Dark Imbued: Masking the presence in the Force of both the wearer and the armor itself is nearly impossible to any practiced Force User without the use of an outside item or phenomenon.
• Lightly Armored: Even the heaviest armored spots can't withstand direct blaster fire and are only effective against glancing Lightsaber blows. Said armor being fairly spread out also leaves plenty of exploitable gaps in overall defense.
• Blinded by the Light: Due to the Dark Side imbuement, any use of Force Light can easily disrupt and negate the user's Force powers and connection for a short time to a slightly greater degree than normal.

DESCRIPTION
Having spent the entirety of the Third Imperial Civil War and the years after without much protection, Alisteri finally decided after his Knighting to forge a set of armor for himself. Using his knowledge of Sith Alchemy and enlisting the help of his cult, he crafted this armor in honor of his new position as a Sith Knight.

Lacking the resources for a full suit of armor, he instead opted to armor certain potions of the body and cover the rest in protective clothing. The shoulders, forearms, knees, and hips are covered in Gammaplast and are the most heavily armored portions of the outfit. A cape and hood made out of Armorweave offer protection to his whole body and his head in addition to the Durasteel helmet. The center of his body is covered by a Leather vest and various belts that mostly protect against Kinetic damage and provide holsters for his dagger and lightsaber. The Alchemized materials, due to assistance from holocrons and an Oracle, also provide a boost to his Force Abilities and even allows access to less powerful versions of a couple other abilities he has yet to master.
