  7. Concussive Absorbing Material
• Broadly speaking, provides protection to the torso (chest, back, and stomach), shoulders, and upper thighs
• At a glance, a Mandalorian Jazerant is virtually indistinguishable from standard clothing, with no way to tell that the garment is armored
• Baffleweave layer furthermore prevents scanners from detecting the Beskar Chainmail layer underneath it
• Multiple textile layers effectively muffle the noise of the Beskar Chainmail

STRENGTHS

• Fancy: Mandalorian Jazerants are designed to be stylish and attractive looking garments, and are well suited to be worn during diplomatic meetings, dances and banquets and even as everyday wear
• Bulwark: Mandalorian Jazerants provide excellent protection against slugthrowers and kinetic impacts, especially from bladed or edged weapons
• Lightsaber resistant: Mandalorian Jazerants provide a high degree of resistance against lightsabers, especially when absorbing cuts and slashes
• Hidden: At a glance, a Mandalorian Jazerant is essentially indistinguishable from normal clothing, as there is no way to tell that the garment is armored
• Baffleweave: The Mandalorian Jazerant is further aided in its ability to deceive others by incorporating a thin layer of Baffleweave over its Beskar Chainmail, preventing the metal from showing up on scanners
• Warm: Mandalorian Jazerant's tend to keep their user quite warm, a rather advantageous attribute when residing in or exploring the coldest parts of Kestri

WEAKNESSES

• Blasters: Though Mandalorian Jazerants protect well against glancing blaster bolts and lower powered weapons, more powerful blasters can punch "holes" through the Beskar Chainmail
• Piercing: It is theoretically possible, though immensely difficult, to stab through a Mandalorian Jazerant should the weapon have an especially sharp and narrow point
• Blunt force trauma: Though highly effectively against melee weapons in general, the Mandalorian Jazrant is marginally less effective against blunt weapons
• Exposed: The Mandalorian Jazerant leaves the head, neck, forearms and legs exposed to attack, requiring additional armor to keep those areas of the body safe
• The heat is on: Though the Mandalorian Jazerant can be worn in essentially any climate, the user may find themselves getting uncomfortably warm on planets with hotter climates

DESCRIPTION

Though Mandalorian culture is very much a warrior's society, there are times where wearing Mandalorian Armor may not always be necessarily appropriate, such as when attending diplomatic meetings, banquets, balls or parties. Yet any proper Mandalorian would never venture out into the galaxy without being able to defend himself or herself, causing something of a clothing conundrum for any Mandalorian trying to go about his or her day. To solve this problem, Gel Karn has invented a rather unusual piece of hidden armor: the Mandalorian Jazerant.

At a glance, a Mandalorian Jazerant appears to be indistinguishable from a normal piece of clothing, but the reality is far different. Hidden inside the Mandalorian Jazerant is a layer of Beskar Chainmail sandwiched between other layers of fabric, giving its wearer a surprisingly large amount of defense against kinetic strikes and lightsabers. The Mandalorian Jazerant even provides a decent amount of protection against energy attacks and blasters, though these kinds of weapons can find "holes" in the Beskar Chainmail, making the armor less effective against them.

Looking or touching a Mandalorian Jazerant does not reveal the Beskar Chainmail inside, and the garment does not make any distinctive sound due to the other layers of fabric muffling the noise that chainmail would normally make. Scanners do not work on Mandalorian Jazerants either, due to the garment having a layer of Baffleweave sewn into it. A Mandalorian Jazerant is a stylish and smart piece of clothing for any self respecting Mandalorian, one that can be used for everyday wear and the most formal of occassions.
