Intent: After being reinstated by the New Order as a Jedi Hunter, this suit of armor is to further emphasis the meaning of that title. It harkens back to the first suit Zius ever acquired when he was starting out, albeit modified and redesigned to carry the same comfort and sturdy protection on the battlefield. Now belonging to the new Darth Pathollex, this suit has been possessed by a new spirit of utterly foul intentions and a thirst for Republic blood. Death is the clear message here, nothing more, nothing less.
Development Thread: None required, will do a thread for story purposes.
Manufacturer: Darth Pathollex
Model
:
Affiliation: New Order/Personal.
Modularity: Highly customizable cosmetically, can be further upgraded to enhance the functionality of the user's cybernetic enhancements.

Description: The EKO 776 is a redesigned, battle-ready and polished version of the previous Jedi Hunter attire that Zius used when the Sith Empire was still a fully functioning power in the galaxy. Endurance was a key factor the in suit's recreation among the already extensive array of enhancements intended to put an edge on the wearer when presented with extreme hazards in combat. A durasteel skull was used as the faceplate to symbolize the merciless power of the New Order and to subtly answer those who seek their fate when faced with such a morbid end.
Quality: 7 - Heavy
Other Feature(s): Fuel the fire: The suit enables Zius to further strengthen his physical prowess by hardening his muscle to an almost steel-like quality when used offensively. It can also give him a fighting chance against more challenging targets.
Band-Aid: The EKO 776 can also restrict the blood-flow in certain areas of the body when mortally wounded, keeping Zius from bleeding out for a short time before needing to seek medical assistance.
Dead Lock: The HUD display is built with top-of-the-line sensors and detailed targeting systems. Advanced radar display and 360-degree field of view.
Brawler's Delight: Once the cybernetic that allows further muscle expansion is active, a set of bladed knuckles will emerge from the hands of the suit to allow brutal melee or hand-to-hand combat. Meant to puncture and tear at armor.
