Pretty Words

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Following complaints from a handful of affluent Core Worlders that they 'just did not feel comfortable wearing disintegratable clothing', the Globex Corporation's Auxillary Projects Division developed Disruptorproof Underwear, a bizarre proof-of-concept able to protect one's privates (and nothing else) from disruptors. Given that most foes tend to aim for the centre of mass, not the crotch, the utility is disputable.
A Jedi could probably wave a pair of underpants around to block disruptor bolts, but one has to wonder why they wouldn't just dodge instead.

- Disruptorproof Underwear reharmonises the nonharmonic energy pulses disruptors generate, rendering the blasts utterly harmless. As a side effect, they offer decent protection from energy weapons such as lightsabers and the common blaster. NB! DUs may overheat when shot.
- Evil Underwear helps the wearer channel the Dark Side by projecting bad vibes, or something like that. IDK, I'm not an alchemist.
- All DUs are both soft and comfortable, but Evil Underwear tends to 'just not fit right' when worn by goody-goody two-shoes.
- Knowing for a fact that their underwear can't be disintegrated has been known to fill users with unearned confidence.
- Undisintegratable Privates: DUs are completely impervious to disruptors - never suffer from disintegrated privates again!
- Kicks Him in the Nards: Disruptorproof Underwear offers no protection from kinetic weapons, such as a swift kick to the nards.
