When it comes time for the people of Tion to defend themselves, let it be known they didn't exactly cut any corners when it came to outfitting and arming their elite fighting core: the Tionese Whiteguard. It's no secret that the design is based off of the old Stormtroopers of yore, but given the long and storied history of Tion under the yoke of the original Empire, then the feuding remnants, and then the former Sith Empire of today, who can really be surprised that it left a lasting impact on what Tionese designers consider stylish?
Given how vigorously the Whiteguard are trained and the cost of doing so, their armor is intended to keep them alive as long as possible. Because it wouldn't do well if they all ended up dead before the investment made into them got returned. The armor comes with a molytex blasterproof vest to help facilitate this, and is otherwise generally protective from things like glancing shots.
The armor also features a number of other advanced features, such as the electronics in the helmet and gauntlet. Its worth noting that these are not protected against EMPs, which will disable all of the armor's features if one happens to go off.
