In 860 ABY, the Draelvasier murdered every living soul on the Kubaz homeworld of Kubindi. The Kubaz diaspora endured, scattered across the galaxy. Many of them aligned with escapees and refugees of other species who had suffered genocide at the hands of the Bryn'adul. An association called We Who Survive began to help evacuate worlds in the Draelvasier crosshairs - and, on occasion, strike back.
Knowing the Draelvasier preference for kinetic weapons like mauling blades and metal spike launchers, as well as brute strength and extreme temperatures, We Who Survive created this armor model for Skajin and other Kubaz operatives. The Kubaz named it for the secretive, predatory, hard-shelled scarpyen of their ravaged homeworld. The armor included more substantive callouts to lost Kubindi: the analog launchers fire darts tipped with the poison of the scarpyen and the ghost spider, lethal enough to cripple or kill even the huge, armored Draelvasier. Likewise, the Kubaz operatives often wear this armor with camouflage cloaks of ghost spider silk, which is tougher than steel. They wear Scarpyen armor in memorial, knowing that ghost spiders and scarpyen are virtually extinct. Wearing this armor is a tangible connection to the remnants that escaped the Kubindi genocide.
