SPECIAL FEATURES
STRENGTHS
  • Skin Shield: In spite of its predominantly skintight construction, the Gloomdancer Veil offers excellent resistance to energy and kinetic weapons, in addition to a high resistance to directed heat attacks. Shikkar Death-Weave, mono-molecularly bonded gammaplast and ostrine mineral composite plating (arms, shoulders, vambraces, and neck), the miniaturized intrinsic shield array, and other systems all work together to lend Sai’vhaela excellent protection against these common battlefield threats.
  • Storm Chaser: A stunningly hardy resistance to EMP and Ion attacks ensures that the Gloomdancer Veil remains robust and functional even during conditions of heavy ionized and electromagnetic interference.
  • Metaphysical Shield: Terentatek hide threading (from the Death-Weave) gives the Gloomdancer Veil a stunning resistance to direct applications of the Force. The material makes up the bodysuit’s primary construction and is threaded throughout its systems, protecting both its wearer and subsystems. In addition, a dedicated Force shield in the face mask provides protection against mental attacks and intrusion.
  • Wallflower: Primarily constructed from Shikkari Death-Weave, the Gloomdancer Veil manifests all the properties of the material, allowing Sai’vhaela to effectively vanish into the shadows and elude Force senses. The bodysuit also includes a number of stealth systems to ensure that she is effectively invisible to sensors and scanners, allowing her to hide within plain sight and engage targets with virtually no risk of being picked up on sensors.
  • Distortion: The Obsidian Voidshards generate a localized distortion field that interferes with Force-based tracking, precognition, and sensory abilities. The ability to interfere with precognition is especially notable as this can blunt a Force-sensitivie’s primary defense against sniping attacks. In addition, enemies may experience visual warping, false shadows, or misjudgements when viewing the wearer, making it extremely difficult to effectively target Sai’vhaela, track her movements, or even register her as a distinct and dangerous presence.
  • Honed Shikkar: Achieved via ultralight energized and reactive polymer materials incorporated into the suit, the Gloomdancer Veil gives Sai’vhaela a twofold strength enhancement. In addition, the Ghost Link allows her to control virtually all of the suit's functions and attached subsystems via mental command. The Ghost Link provides further mental enhancement via the suit itself, which heightens and accelerates the user’s thought processes by supplementing them with processing power from the onboard computers. Thus, the suit enhances the user both physically and mentally.
WEAKNESSES
  • Acerbic Affliction: Unfortunately, acid weapons are very effective at eating through the bodysuit’s protective material to harm the wearer directly, potentially inflicting a host of dangerous effects.
  • Tensor: While optimized to mitigate damage from most forms of energy-based assaults, tensor weapons are indeed the exception. In firing compressed tractor beam waves, they can bypass most of the bodysuit’s defenses and affect the wearer’s body at a cellular level, with the potential to cause severe injury.
  • Shield Projector Fragility: The Gloomdancer Veil is a high-tech bodysuit that depends in large part on its electronics for its defensive prowess. Thus, should its electronics be overloaded, disabled, or impaired, the suit’s ability to protect Sai’vhaela will suffer in turn. In such a case, the miniaturized intrinsic shield array might suffer malfunction. Since this system is a linchpin to the armor’s resistance against disruptors (the protective material by itself is unable to adequately defend against this weapon type as solid materials can not be proofed against disruptors), these weapon will likely pose an especially mortal threat to the wearer in the event of system failure.
  • Surface Damage: While the bodysuit’s equipped Dream Sight has an extremely advanced surface-integrated passive reception array, any direct damage to the surface may diminish the effectiveness of the system due to the destruction of a number of passive micro-sensors. This can result in blind spots in the passive reception array.
  • Deep Freeze: While the suit is rated to protect the wearer from all environments (including arctic planets the likes of Hoth and Ilum), it unfortunately does not grade well in terms of defense against cold-based weaponry. That is to say that the biting, freezing power of cryogenic weapon systems is far more penetrating than that presented by cold environments. Thus, Sai’vhaela must rely on other means of protection should she come to face these weapons.
  • Circumvented: The Terentatek threading (from the Death-Weave) provides excellent protection against direct applications of the Force, including (but not strictly limited to) mechu-deru, direct telekinetic influences, and mental attacks. However, indirect applications of the Force (i.e. using the Force to generate bursts of pressurized air, throw rocks, generate elemental effects, etc.) may still be effective, depending on the specific resistance that the suit has to the attack in question.
DESCRIPTION
Created for Sai’vhaela’s exclusive use, the Gloomdancer Veil was awarded to Sai’vhaela not long after her initiation into the Shikkari priesthood. It is designed chiefly to facilitate her sniper specialization and to enhance her hyper-athletic movement capabilities stemming from her Jango Jumper physiology. For the latter, the suit has Obsidian Voidshards that render her a blur, making her incredibly difficult to effectively target. To enhance her sniping capabilities, the suit allows her to hide at will, whether by simply sinking into the shadows, being nullified on sensors, slipping past Force senses, or even being wholly cloaked via the concealment device that renders her totally invisible.

Given the lack of a helmet (though the bodysuit includes a face mask), the Gloomdancer Veil has an energized neck piece integrated into the gorget, which features a reactive conformal energy shield that acts to protect the wearer’s head and neck. Additional shielding is woven directly into the suit’s construction, in the form of a skintight, conformal Echani shield system that integrates a triple phase layer of energy shields.

Through storm, light, darkness, fire, frost, and yet more adversities, the Gloomdancer Veil is intended to keep Sai’vhaela shrouded under the purifying shadow of the Eclipsing Mission, to strike when the enemies of the Sith’ari least expect!
