Retractable Blades
Classification: Retractable Blades.

Weight: 2.5kg Each.
Other Features: Able to combat against lightsabers and vibroblades with quick and glancing strikes. The point of the retractable blades is to stop close quarters combatants. ((I.E: Brawlers, bladesman.)) If all of the weapons were lost, destroyed or otherwise the retractable blades would be the last resort weapons.
Description: The strengths behind the armour are to protect him from glancing lightsaber, blaster and other melee and ranged weapon contacts. The major weakness behind the armour is that it would be completely useless if struck at with a direct hit. Though, it would take a little bit of time to be harmed considerably by a lightsaber.
The reasoning behind the armour is after Arvis came into close quarters with the jedi padawan, Sarge Potteiger, he realized how ill-equipped he was for battle compared to his opponent at the time, who happened to be Sarge. After leaving the battle with many cuts, bruises and a severe wound to his thigh, he had begun almost immediately to have construction on his armour set begin.
If caught in close quarters combat, the armour would function in a way to protect it's user from glancing strikes to his body. If weapons were lost, and the user had exhausted themselves in the Force, the armour is capable of providing the user a weapon. The retractable claws that came out of the gauntlets knuckles were quite useful as they extended up to a meter and a half and could shorten or elongate itself in that range.
It is limited in the fact that it most probably would fail if underneath a hail of blaster fire, and a direct hit from a lightsaber. ((I.E: A lunge that struck true.))
