Intent: I am creating this armor in order to make strong yet flexible armor for my character which will protect him from blaster fire.
Development Thread: If needed
Manufacturer: Privately made
Model: Tal armor set
Affiliation: Tal Kyramud
Modularity: No. Is meant to be used as it is, because it has been custom made
Production: Privately produced. One of a kind.
Material: It is made out of some durosteel and the non durosteel parts are padded on the inside with duranex pouches that contain microbes which consume radiation. Barabel Microbe armor uses the same type of microbes.
Description:
Microbes: Since this armor is almost made completely of pouches which contains microbes, it isn't effective against slug throwers or lightsabers. It actually isn't effective against any type of weapon other than blasters because the microbes feed on radiation and produce no resistance to other weapons. The microbes also feed on extreme heat, making it effective in hot climates. The microbes are very lethargic at cold temperatures and thus provide little protection in cold environments. They will also die after 15 minutes in any temp. below 0 degrees Celsius. On the upside, it is very effective in hot climates and can easily absorb blaster fire, just not repeated fire in the same spot.
Other areas: On the chest, ab, back, thigh, forearm, knee, and shins, there is a durosteel layer underneath the microbe pouches. This provides extra protection. The helmet is durosteel that has pouches of microbes on it and has a visor in the front. This provides a 180 HUD and has a filtration system with small air reserves, enough for 5 minutes. The forearm gauntlets have extendable durosteel vibroblades that are 8 inches in length.
Strength list:
Blaster protection, protection from extreme heat, 180 degree HUD, respiration system, light
Weakness list:
Useless for anything but blaster protection, microbes don't work in cold temperatures (Making it useless), isn't able to be modified
Classification: Class X against blasters
Weight: 10 kg
Quality: 3 overall because it only offers blaster protection. Class 8 against blasters
Other Feature(s): Vibroblades in gauntlets, looks unique due to pouches of microbes, has a clip on the back for Tal's energy bow
