Sagas Personal Slicing Kit
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To solidify the gear carried on Saga Runfridhs person for slicing to avoid any questionable shenanigans in threads (IE, I have this now because you just wrote that you have defences, lol)
- Image Source: BobKehl
- Canon Link: Computer Slicing Kit, Scramble Key, Holorecorder, Diagnostic Systems Diverter, Universal Jammer, Skeleton Key, Datacore
- Restricted Missions: N/A
- Primary Source: All listed in Canon Links
- Manufacturer: Saga Runfridh
- Model: N/A
- Affiliation: Saga Runfridh
- Modularity: Yes, should new equipment be acquired of developed it could be fairly easily added to this kit, however note would have to be made in the opening post of any thread for that equipment to be deemed usable unless on the Pactolus, where all Sagas equipment is kept and generally within easy reach.
Production: Unique
- Material: Electronic Components, Haydian Mesh, Liquid Metal (Skeleton Keys only), Gold, Copper
Strengths:
- Stealthy - Between the jammer and the misdirecting appearances of Sagas gear, she can take her kit nearly anywhere she goes without causing anyone to bat an eye.
- Codebreaker - With this kit, Sagas can get into a lot of places and access a lot of information people might rather she didn't
- EMP - The majority of this kit can be disabled or outright fried by an EMP. The skeleton keys would be unaffected and it is possible some of the data on the datacores may be salvageable, but everything else would be out of commission at best and reduced to so much shiny trash at worst.
- Questionable - Should the true use of all of Sagas gear be uncovered, it is quite likely that whoever did the uncovering would be able to put together quite quickly that she is a slicer, possibly a spy, and definitely not to be trusted.
- Situationally Useful - Is this gear useful? Absolutely. Is it going to be what she needs every time? Absolutely not. There is a lot of very specialised gear in the Star Wars universe, and while Sagas kit can deal with a good cross section of it, it is definitely not all inclusive, and will likely be useless in many situations.
Acting primarily as a slicer, Saga needs the tools of her trade. While her particular force bent allows her to do some things without gear, to be effective she needs a kit. And in typical Saga fashion, this being the woman who flies around the universe in a glorified cruise ship, she refused to have standard gear. This was partially ego driven and partially practicality. Never knowing who or where she might be hired to infiltrate, Saga needed a kit she could have on her person without arousing suspicion. She also wanted to look good well doing it. If you can't be high-class about it why bother at all as far as she's concerned.
This in mind, Saga has recreated the basic slicers toolkit in the guise of her everyday jewellery and ornamentation. This kit contains nothing shocking or that the galaxy hasn't seen before, but used correctly and intelligently, it does allow one to handle most basic slicing needs or issues as they arise.
