Intent: To make a lighter, more mobile version of the already approved armor.

Development Thread: One was done for the original armor, as seen here. This armor is just a variation of the one already made, and actually weakens it slightly.

Manufacturer: Eshan Industrial Corporation

Model: Wraith Vapor Armor Mk. II

Affiliation: Janira Fenni

Modularity: No

Production: Unique

Material: Polyfibe, Copper, Armorplast, Rubber, Transparisteel

Classification: Multipurpose Combat

Weight: 4kg

Quality: 2

Special Features: Energy redirection - The suit was specifically designed for combat against dark side entities in addition to regular foes. After dealing with a situation in which she was electrocuted, Niamh Raste, the designer of this suit, decided that it would be optimal to include a defense against this often used dark side ploy. As such, she ran flexible copper wire through the suit from contact points on the armors surface down to the boots on the ground. These wires were sealed off from the wearer with a rubber polymer to remove any possibility of the wearer being electrocuted, minus a blowout of the copper, or a meltdown due to high levels of energy. This suit is not rated for constant electrical feed or the type of energy discharge a lightning bolt can produce, but was designed to counter Force Lightning.

Description: Upon her defection from the Republic, Niamh secretly joined an organization of people that do not exist. As part of this, she determined it was necessary to have an armor that would hide who she was from everyone that might know her. While the Wraith Vapor Armor that she constructed for the Republic and Silver Jedi to use was both well-conceived and durable, it wasn't suited for the sorts of missions that she would undertake in this new role. Rather than start from square one, she took an already viable design and decided to streamline it.

In order to do this, she removed its capacity to be used as a flight suit. In addition, she removed large portions of the armor, which removed some of its capability of stopping blaster bolts. However, this reduction allowed for greater flexibility of movement, making it more effective for the sort of shadow combat that she would be undertaking. The capability of redirecting electrical attacks remains. The only true difference between this and the standard Wraith Vapor Armor is the reduction in capacity to handle blaster fire, a modified helmet and overall look, and color pallet.
