Special Features:

Description:
Created by the Hands of the Shadow for it's assassins, this lightweight armor was created utilizing no modern technology. It's most prominent feature is the terantatek hide inter-weaved with Shell Spider Silk, which provides resistance against both the Force and physical damage.
This Force resistance means wearers are immune against most Force powers, with the following exceptions:
  • Mentalism
  • Force push/crush
  • Force-enhanced strength
  • Telekinetically thrown objects
  • Anything that targets exposed areas.
  • Etc.
The hide plates cover vital areas such as the torso, midriff, shins, feet, arms, and hands. However, these plates make it more difficult for the wearer to be affected by Force techniques such as Healing, as well as dampening their own abilities as long as they wear gloves. Wearers of the armor also find it difficult to enhance properties such as speed or strength. It is difficult, but not impossible.
More silk covers the areas of the body in between the plates. This had two effects: more resistance against damage, and near-silent movement, as the plate's movements are muffled by the silk. There is also a silk face mask attached to the armor, to hide the wearer's identity. However
Several pouches for gear made of Sullust leather are attached to the mid-riff, lashed tight against the wearer's body to prevent more noise.
Despite all this, this armor is made for stealth, and as such, won't stand up in extended combat, as well as providing no resistance to lightsabers.

SUGGESTIONS
On a more serious note, this really only protects against direct Alter attacks that hit the coat itself. It provides no defense at all against a very large list of Force powers,


Nox said:
lightning, Force drain, telekinesis, etc.

Terentatek Leather isn't like a one way mirror for the Force and only effects the parts of you actually covered by the leather.
What I need to see is what areas of the body the leather covers and some reasonable down sides (Harder to be Force Healed, dampening of your own abilities if you have gloves on, etc).
