Intent: A suit of Beskar’gam forged for Mandalorian Engineer Aditya Mantis, at the behest of her Field Marshal fiancé so she may go into battle without fear of imminent peril all the time. It was the shrieking. It had to stop. Beskar'gam for Aditya! Save the ears!
Development Threads:
- Cathedral Forge: A Leg Up (Post #9 confirms [member="Preliat Mantis"] gifted the rest of his Rally Master Beskar'gam to Aditya for re-forging.)
- The Mechangenista Prepares (Aditya pondering the schematics, then landing on Concordia to meet Forgewoman [member="Tysk Willamina"] and get the Beskar'gam creation started.)
Model: Mantis'Cyare Beskar’gam Mark III
Affiliation: Aditya Mantis (Mandalorian)
Modularity: Yes (May require Dev Threads)
Production: Unique
Material:
- 98% Beskar + 2% Ciridium Alloy
- Armourweave (Beskar alloy)
Weight: 15 kg.
Quality: Class 9
Special Features: Being more interested in physics, engineering and explosives than shooting a blaster carbine or fighting hand-to-hand or lightsaber-to-lightsaber, more attention was paid to the armour’s functional engineering components, computational & analytical add-ons than attack-based features. Extra attention was placed on the Beskar plates themselves, that although ergonomically fitted to the wearer, were forged with the maximum protective plating in mind. Fit for a Field Marshal's darling, this Beskar'gam is meant to take Aditya through a lifetime in the Mando'ade and is a work of art for the engineer and the Forge in which it was built.
Description: Aditya came to the Mandalorians on the behest of her lover [member="Preliat Mantis"]. Upon falling for the Mandalorian Field Marshal, Aditya made the move to their new home on the outskirts of Keldabe and began to immerse herself into the culture of the Mando’ade. When Preliat asked Aditya to marry him, following every point of the Resol'nare became even more integral to her development. An engineer by trade, the former ballerina is a clutz on the battlefield, having barely any success whatsoever in saving her own skin. In order to bring his lover (and mother of his yet unborn child) into the culture safely, Preliat gifted his old Rally Master Beskar’gam to be re-forged to keep the Mechangenista safe from harm while plying her mechanical and demolition-based trade on the battlefield. Thus, Aditya’s Beskar’gam has been built at Preliat's wish for incredible defence, engineering and scientific discoveries, in lieu of more combative features.
To coincide with the shift in features and Aditya's ocular abnormality, the quintessential T-visor buy'ce was scrapped for a more 'Atrisian' or Modern look. This also means that all images seen by the Atrisian Noble while wearing her buy'ce is controlled by the suit's computer system so as to better protect her fragile, genetically weak eyes. Should the Beskar'gam 'short out' or its electronic systems become compromised, Aditya would have to manually remove the Buy'ce to see or function in complete pitch black.
Upon her left gauntlet is a device meant to jumpstart machinery or stun an unarmoured opponent for up to two standard minutes depending on size and severity of shock. This is meant as a defensive device and is not fatal in normally operating circumstances. This device recharges in ninety seconds, unless another easily accessed power source is available.
In working with the natural recreational proclivities of Aditya and Preliat, the stomach plates of the Beskar'gam have bolted hinges which can be expanded to ensure adequate room for Aditya's growing pregnancy belly, while still keeping her safe in case of her presence on a battlefield or assignment where the Beskar'gam would naturally be of use. Due to the nature of the plate mechanics, the defensive capabilities of the fully protracted plates brings the stomach section of her Beskar'gam from Class 10 to Class 9. Once no longer required, the plates can be retracted back to Aditya's post-pregnancy shape (which she's hoping will match her pre-pregnancy shape and might have to do a lot of Space Yoga to ensure).
