This backpack was built by a droid who got too curious and wanted to see what would happen if they added an electric charge to the blood of a Purrgil and unintentionally shot himself through hyperspace crash landing in the desert of Jakuu by himself, and blasting a sizable hole in his ship on top of it. This device is very unstable, and extremely dangerous to organics due to the large amount of radiation expelled every time it's used. Not only this, but the fact that this backpack naturally seeps a little radiation and should be stored away from food or other essential supplies. The backpack is made of a special dura-steel weave fiber and has a backup master switch underneath the main flap. On top of the ability to jump to hyperspace, the backpack also works like a jetpack, fueled by a micro-reactor. The jetpack is a special design, and only a few were made, and that is probably for the best.
