Lazrea Visara
Huntress of Hoth
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
After having to deal with a nasty Nexu and Rancor after being forced into an arena belonging to a group of poaching smugglers, Lazrea wanted a suit of armour that wouldn't hinder her, yet allow immense protection from physical as well as energy based damages. With enough time and effort put into the planning, scavenging and buying of parts, Lazrea managed to build her Balwark Weave Armour. A suit of armour with duel regenerative shields, sturdy plating and agile movement. What more could a Huntress ask for.

Lazrea Visara
- Market Status: Closed Market
- Model: N/A
- Modularity: No
- Production: Unique
- Material: Inoxium shell for plates, Duralium reinforcement of core plating, Pyronium as a thin layer along non-plated areas such as the gut, thighs and sides of torso, Tungsten welding, Trimantium plating along torso, shoulders, wrists, shins and back, Dynamic Deflector System for Kinetic impacts (able to withstand hits from larger creatures) and a Personal Force Field with reduced range yet increase in potency
- Classification: Medium Armour
- Weight: Light
- Resistances:
- Energy: Very High - Blaster Fire, partly against ship based energy blasts if not direct impacts, some grenades that rely on non kinetic damage
- Kinetic: Very High
- Lightsabers: Very Low
- Other: High resistance to Electromagnetic Energy such as EMPS or similar forms of power/ blasts
- Due to the combining shield varieties, the resistance to kinetic impacts from melee weapons, slugthrowers and even strikes from creatures akin to Gundarks, and a reduced range, overdrived force field to deflect blaster and other energy based weaponry allowed this suit to provide well above average protection from most damage.
- The Pyronium's compound allows this suit of armour to withstand electromagnetic forces such as EMPs and similar weaponry that would typically disable it.
- The Light weight of this armour, despite it being classified as Medium armour, allows Lazrea to move as if she had donned a suit of casual clothes. This also provided an immense improvement to stealth capabilities.
- High durability with many coats of metals allows it to remain in use for a largely extended period of time before repairs are even thought about.
- The resistance to EMPs as well as energy and kinetic based damage allows the wearer to stay in a fight for long periods of time.
- Stealth is a factor that only Light armour would typically have, yet it's lack of dense plating allows silent movement during prey stalking.
- Shields have a regenerating factor to their cores allowing the mini generators across the body to recharge and reactivate frequently.
- Despite its very high resistant shielding, if it sustains enough damage it will go temporarily offline, leaving the wearer vulnerable across more exposed areas.
- The lack of plating means that physical damage along the hands can still impact the wearer to a lessened effect.
- Lack of Lightsaber resistant material makes this leather based armour extremely susceptible to cuts, stabs and other Lightsaber strikes.
