PRODUCTION INFORMATION
  • Manufacturer: Draven
  • Model: N/A
  • Affiliation: Draven
  • Modularity: Yes
  • Production: Unique
  • Material: Clone trooper armor pieces, Thick leather
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Anti-Blaster Armor
  • Weight: Average
  • Resistances
- Blasters (And other plasma type weapons): High (The armor is meant for clone/storm troopers who engage in blaster combat constantly.)
- Kinetic: Low (A couple pieces of clone/storm trooper armor and some leather will do very little to stop this kind of assault)
- Lightsabers: Average (The armor is able to allow blows to glance off it or blows that just barely scrape along it to slide off. Direct hits will shear through it.
- Other: Slug throwers and melee blades: High (Melee blades will bounce off it if they are not made of some special material, same with slug throwers.)

SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Breathing mask to protect from deadly gasses/environment
  • Light weight, allowing more mobility and dexterity while using it.
  • Build In Life Support
  • Enforced plating, making it slightly more durable and resistant than the average soldier's.
  • Built in space modification, allowing for the entire body to be covered and a thin glass helmet to encase the head. Very fragile in this state.
DESCRIPTION
The armor is a very light weight suit, made for most every occasion. It has a bit of class to it for formal events, and the necessary protection for wearing it in combat. The heavy plating scattered across it provides broad protection to kill points. Chest, legs, and arms are all protected, but the gaps in it make the armor less effective than the heavier trooper gear. The heavier right arm armor allows for enhanced protection on the right arm, and the custom design on the bottom of the boots allows for better grip on rough terrain. This is gear meant to be worn in the trenches, right beside troopers and soldiers. It is by no means heavy armor, or protective against head on confrontations, but from a spray of blaster shots? A stray light saber blow? It functions very well. The armor is meant to counteract the single target orientation of Draven's broad saber, and mitigate damage that he would receive in larger scale combat just by participating. As said before, it does very well at deflecting stray blaster shots, protecting from explosions, and could even allow a saber to glance off it it was not swung with much force and just barely slid along the armor.

Strengths:
  • Blaster Resistant
  • Vacuum Proof
  • Very light and allows for high mobility
  • Can deflect glancing saber blows if they are not focused
  • Flexible enough for acrobatics while wearing
  • Protects the wearer from harsh environments
Weaknesses:
  • Cracks. Everywhere. Underneath this armor is simple leather and robes. If a blaster, or blade finds its way through one of the cracks in the trooper gear, it might as well have hit skin. There is nothing underneath it that would offer any substantial protection.
  • The reinforced trooper armor can be knocked or ripped off, leaving the user exposed.
  • If a direct hit is landed, the trooper armor will be shot, completely destroyed and the user exposed. It will be lucky to block one hit.
