SPECIAL FEATURES
STRENGTHS
  • Vital Barrier - The Apsara maintains a fairly robust network of defenses against energy weapons, featuring gammaplast plating, armorweave, energy sinks, Integrum, and other protective systems, the armor effectively serves as a strong platform for infantry in defending against the most conventional (and many unconventional) energy threats on the modern battlefield, including blasters, particle beams, disruptors, electric weapons, and yet more.
  • Liquid Armor - The Apsara's sleek appearance belies its robust capacity for defending the wearer against kinetic weaponry. The combination of light gammaplast plating and an anti-kinetic inertia damper makes the armor very effective in mitigating kinetic force and penetration, affording the wearer a good degree of protection against slugthrowers and other kinetic weaponry.
  • Augmented Assault - Achieved via energized and reactive polymer materials incorporated into the body glove, the armor will enhance the wearer’s speed, strength, and athleticism almost fivefold, allowing the operator to wield heavier weapons with decreased encumbrance and to grapple stronger enemies.
  • Scream of Defiance - The Apsara's integrated sound dampening overlay affords the armor a good ability to dampen incoming fire from most types of sonic weaponry, thereby protecting the wearer and her internal organs from the deleterious effects of these assaults.
WEAKNESSES
  • Mechanical Mutation - Given the degree of advanced technology and automation implemented into the armor, the Apsara is quite vulnerable to malicious influence from a skilled practitioner of Mechu-Deru, provided that they have a clear line of sight to the suit.
  • Bone Chill - The Apsara’s performance in defending the wearer from weaponized cold leaves much to be desired. While its protection is better than nothing, the wearer is better off depending on an external system to defend against this class of weapon. However, the armor’s protection is sufficient to protect the wearer from arctic environments the likes of Hoth and Ilum, owing to the fact that the cold in these biomes is significantly less concentrated than that of the conditions generated by CryoBan or similar cryonic weaponry.
  • Passive Reception Array - The network of passive sensors integrated into the surface of the armor and helmet will naturally lose effectiveness as they take damage, thereby degrading the wearer’s awareness as they come under more fire by creating blind spots in the array of passive sensors. While the bodysuit is capable of protecting the wearer from energy weapons’ fire to a very high degree, these types of weapons, in addition to flamethrowers, corrosives, and CryoBan projectors, are especially effective in destroying the network of surface-integrated passive sensors, due to their increased area of effect over slugthrowers and most bladed implements.
  • Weaponized Radiation - While the armor is capable of protecting its wearer from background radiation in the environment, it does a poor job in protecting its wearer from weaponized radiation, due to it being far more concentrated than radiation in an environment or a vacuum.
  • Tensor - While optimized to mitigate damage from most forms of energy-based assaults, tensor weapons are indeed the exception. In firing compressed tractor beam waves, they can bypass most of the armor’s defenses and affect the wearer’s body at a cellular level, with the potential to cause death.
DESCRIPTION
The primary engine of any armed force, even in the modern era, infantry are the foundation of virtually all military maneuvers, even playing a factor in conflicts transpiring amidst spatial battlefields as Marines and ship boarders. As such, it was considered paramount to equip them with the best possible technology, of which armor was a key component. With the conception of the Siren Corps, which were established primarily to form a backbone for the armed forces of House Io in the face of certain threats, a primary armor system was needed to protect them. To that end, First United Astral Engineering designed and produced the FAE/A-04 “Apsara” Ultralight Combat Armor in its manufacturing facilities on the Scintilla, House Io-held planets, and House Io manufacturing starships.

Incorporating a number of utility systems, including the Eleleth propulsion system and the Dream Sight electronics suite, the Apsara was designed as a lethal and versatile package for soldiers in the field. The updated version of the armor also includes FAE/MDW-01 Active Defense System to protect against incoming missiles, grenades, and other kinetic threats. It is highly resistant to most conventional weapons, giving the wearer a reliable defense against most enemies and methods of attack. However, it is vulnerable to CryoBan, tensor, and corrosive weapons, in addition to having relatively vulnerable sensors.

Nevertheless, in spite of these drawbacks, it is hoped that the armor proves to be worth the investment put into its design.
