SPECIAL FEATURES
- Tech Integrated Gauntlets(Right Gauntlet, Left Gauntlet): built-in Mobile "Bodycam" Datapad, connection to Headset Microphone Comm-Link, connection and activator to Nano-Tech Armor
- Web Gear: The traditional web gear of older models is still built in, but "smaller", shoulder mounts for Force Blinding Flashbangs, Utility belt with pouches, containing a spool of high tension wire, one grappling hook, ration packs, space for tech, and other items. This is not as big as his previous gearset, but it is meant for quicker, more silent movement.
- Built-in Back and leg Sheathes: Connel's Lightsaber(Morning Light), Shortsabers (Night and Day) and Lightblaster have their own holster and latch to clasp to Connel's back (or leg) easing his movement when speed and stealth are necessary.This component also makes ease of his use of the Throwing Lightknives
- Brass Knuckles: "Not Very Jedi-Like", these Weapons are equipped with the armor(on each gauntlet) as well and are detachable at any time.
- Force Affinity: Altered with force-infused materials that imbue the Jedi wearing them a standard slew of protections and capabilities. The ability to better resist the dark side influence, ease the access to learn skills that have been practiced and feel generally more energized and lively.
- Force Resistance: Not pure resistance to the force but its influences specifically the Darkside.
- Force Enlightenment: A general enhancement of the specific Jedi's talents in the light side of the force. They don't know everything but using their own abilities is easier, sharper focus.
- Revitalize: A more robust feeling mentally and physically aids in calming the mind and body to focus.
- Insight: With the mask on and up the mental capabilities of the Jedi to observe and feel their surroundings is greatly enhanced.
- Precognition: The hood when worn and focused on improving the precognitive capabilities of the Jedi wearing it.
STRENGTHS
- LIGHTSABER RESISTANCE: Much of the armor's particular armor plate alloy is made out of turadium and a phrik lining, known for its resistance to lightsabers, especially without much force put behind such blows.
- ENERGY RESISTANCE: The elements of the plating and the Defense base layer provide excellent protection from the most common energy weapons and physical weapons.
- LIGHTER/SLEEKER: His previous set of armor/gear was designed more with a Guardian, even a Special Forces Operator intended. This is more with CONNEL in mind.
WEAKNESSES
- REQUIRES CONNECTION TO THE FORCE: For the synth weave effects to function within it the material needs to be able to feel the force energies around it. Vong tech, yalisimiri, voidstone, and dampening fields are all counter to what the material can handle. Effectively a Force Nullification.
- FORCE NULLIFICATION: Any efforts to the contrary will not make this piece immune to Nullification. Anyone using the skill will basically make the Vambrace a thick fancy glove.
DESCRIPTION
Jedi Armor has a long if somewhat controversial history among the galaxy's Force-users, with some eschewing it entirely because of beliefs such as it impeding their ability to use the Force or it being uncomfortable or too warlike. But in times of prolonged conflict, whether during the Great Galactic War or the Clone Wars, Jedi commonly have donned such suits to better protect themselves from the rigors of battle. With its long association with the Silver Jedi Concord, Lucerne Personal Defense stepped up to make a standardized set of Jedi Armor that was plain enough to assuage some Jedi's concerns of technological reliance yet durable enough to provide a meaningful benefit on the battlefield. To that end, Knight Plate largely follows the tradition of Jedi Robes, being simple enough in form and construction to the point where it could easily be misidentified as the battle armor of countless civilizations throughout the galaxy. Its technological features are few and largely focused on simple utility: a comlink for communication, an ascension cable launcher for ease of vertical transport, and a utility belt not too unlike the old Jedi Utility Belt used just prior to the Clone Wars. While relatively cheap compared to many high-tech armors being produced in the galaxy, the quality of the armor's plating and the general Jedi thought that one should become reliant on technology (especially at the Padawan level) means that the armor has only been produced in limited numbers for Jedi Knights and Masters within the Silver Jedi Order.
Caltin Vanagor received his own personalized set, designed to his specifications that offered little variation to the original Lucerne design, other than the web gear, the built-in sheathes and the overall look the feel is much the same as the original effective design. Recently he took to imbuing several parts and sections of the body armor itself with the Force. This setup was meant to be more form-fitting and closer-knit so that he could wear clothes over them and be more mobile in the field without giving up protection.
The problem is that he never found the chance to use the armor.
Connel came across this armor himself and asked for the chance to use it. When given the "go ahead", he changed a few things, not much, but enough to make the gear his own and to fit more into his own personal ideals and designs. This is no longer a "Guardian's armor", this is no longer "Resolute" armor. This is
his lighter, more mobile and designed to be dangerously functional on its own without everything added to it. The rest? That is icing on the proverbial cake.
