STRENGTHS
- Lightsaber Resistant: Made of beskar, voidsteel, and alchemically preserved terentatek leather, this armor is almost impervious to the signature weapon of Force Users
- Full-Load: With the combat harness, like most of the more heavily armed Mandalorians, Ijaat is prepared for pretty much whatever may come his way, at least in some small way. Victory, no. But survival, yes.
- Voidsteel
- Conflicting Functions: The camouflage functions or the shield function can only be active one at a time. It takes several seconds to adjust for one to the other
- Limited Ammunition: The weapons on the armor are not the easiest to reload and some of them are one and done weapons (Missiles, Dart Launcher), while the others are simply difficult to reload, and impossible to do without a respite
- Heavy Burden: Some might wax philisophical about the protection offered by such a suit, but the truth is, at twenty kilograms, this is not a lightweight suit of armor in any imagination stretch.
- Sonic & Environmental Damage
DESCRIPTION
Created by Ijaat Mereel at the behest of Obran Dragr, some say this armor was done in return for a song to be composed by the Bard for the Iron Father, though none know what the words or tune are if this is true. Crafted from the finest beskar in his forges, then layered with plates of pure forged voidsteel, this armor was made to hunt Force Users. For who better than the Iron Father to know the peril his own kind represents when not of the Way? Even the bodgylove from Breshig was modified, stripped and refitted to a bodysuit of alchemically treated Terentatek leather, allowing the leather to retain it's Force nullifiying and resistance even after butchering and tanning.
As a nod to the traditional mindset of it's wearer, even calcified mythosaur bones adorn the armor, and it gleams at once like polished silver with the same color as aged ivory, a secret the Iron Father won't comment on. A fine detail most don't notice is the armor is almost entirely covered in Mando'a glyphs, detailing legends and songs from popular ones from Histories of the Mandalorian people, to ones that Obran wrote himself, armoring his flesh in the words and songs of his people to go forth under the protection of the very Manda itself.
