The Admiralty
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Little is known about this illusive artifact of the Sith besides rumors.
It was said to have been created by the heirs of the first Sith Lords that were exiled from the Jedi millennia ago and subjugated the Sith species on Korriban. Amongst them were accomplished alchemists and magicians, who experimented with the laws of nature aplenty.
This particular artifact was made by a Sith Lord called Kharda Vhez, one of the disciples of Sorzus Syn.
At some point in his life he became afflicted with a mysterious illness. After many months of studying, experimenting and observation the Sith realized that this particular illness was somehow Force-afflicted.
And so he considered it likely that if his connection to the Force was somehow severed or suppressed, that the ailment would vanish as well.
It was a time when the ysalamiri of Myrkr were practically unknown and he did not trust his fellow Sith enough to allow them to sever his connection to the Force. So instead he utilized his knowledge of Alchemy and Sorcery to create an artifact that would aid him in his plight.

POWERS
Force Sever: The wearer of the apparatus is severed from the Force for the duration that he is wearing it. This does not confer the rare properties of ‘Force Deadness’ note, the wearer can still be affected by the Force in all the usual manners. He simply cannot wield or feel it himself anymore, until the artifact has been removed again.
Passive Drain: The apparatus is able to feed off the residual energy of the Force and slowly feed it back to wearer. This is most effective at places that hold powerful nexus like Ruusan or Dromund Kaas. The energy gained from this gives the wearer a slight edge in terms of stamina, allowing him or her to fight on for just a little bit longer.
Indestructible: The artifact itself has been treated in the same way as most alchemical items are, meaning that a lightsaber cannot cut through it and short of a sustained barrage of Force Light or something comparable won’t be able to destroy it. This says nothing about the leather that allows the wearer to actually wear the artifact. This also says nothing about the fact that a lightsaber cutting so close to one’s face… that spells trouble.
Corruption: The artifact might sever its wearer from the Force, but it is still an item forged through Alchemy, a primarily Darkside fueled discipline. The wearer will be more prone to the primal emotions, easier to anger et cetera.
