OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

  • Name: Glistaweb

  • Manufacturer: Yuuzhan Vong

  • Production: Limited

  • Affiliation: Open-Market

  • Modularity: It’s alive.

  • Material: Glistaweb
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS

  • Classification: Organism / Vong Biotechnology

  • Weight: Lightweight

  • Resistances:
    - Blasters (And other plasma type weapons):
    Very High
    - Kinetic: None
    - Lightsabers: Average
    - Force: Very High
    - Other: None

  • Color: Shimmering and glowing appearance. Color varies with different Glistaweb strains, which exist in most colors found in nature. E.g. greens, browns, reds, blues, etc.
SPECIAL FEATURES

  • Force dead

  • Charge-neutralizing field
Strengths:

  • Force dead: Glistaweb cannot be affected, manipulated, or otherwise influenced directly through the Force. Hurl a rock at it, though, and it’ll get hit like anything else under the suns.

  • Blaster-deflecting: Akin to Vonduun Crab, Glistaweb is capable of deflecting blaster bolts.

  • Stealthy: To those unfamiliar with Vong biotechnology, Glistaweb appears as nothing more than a shimmering fabric.
Weaknesses:

  • Electricity: Kills it dead.

  • Kinetic damage: Wearing a fancy shirt won’t save you from getting stabbed with a vibroknife.

  • Living organism: If it dies, the charge-neutralizing field dies with it. That means no more blaster deflection. That means you better run fast.
DESCRIPTION
Glistaweb has long been the ceremonial garb of the highest-ranking members of the Yuuzhan Vong castes. This is due to its glimmering appearance, but moreso owing to the fact that it’s capable of deflecting blaster fire. While Skerr Kyrric is capable of that and more, the shimmering, fabric-like organism is far more inconspicuous compared to the hulking, oft-spiked bulk of the Vonduun Crab.

For this reason, it’s favored by those who prefer covert protection; whether they are spies, infiltrators, or political figures, it matters not. In this day and age, the secret of Glistaweb nurture has been disseminated along with the many wandering clans and sects of the Yuuzhan Vong.

Pioneering Master Shapers all across the galaxy have long been working for purposes far beyond their Gods-given calling. From singular pariahs to those employed by interstellar corporations, they share their supreme knowledge of bioengineering with other experts in an effort to pursue new discoveries and bring down barriers on the path to progress.

- Force: Extreme
From the Standardized Factory Rules:

I will need the armor rating dropped from Extreme to Very High. Alternatively this may be changed to unique.

I'm not sure how that would make sense given the source material.

Vong Biotechnology is Force dead – with the exception of lightning, which is already accounted for in the Weaknesses, no application of the Force can affect it. Very High would imply it's... slightly less Force dead? It's not a spectrum, it's either 0 or 1.

Please advise.

Please advise.
We have specific limitations for submissions that the wookieepedia and canon in general do not. Whenever a submission is made in the factory it needs to go through the process of being balanced, and must adhere to factory standards and rules.

The text I quoted above are rules, which I am beholden to, as a factory judge, make certain that all submissions follow.

You can change the rating to very high, request a second chance, or have the submission denied.

Being a yuuzhan vong force dead being or material does not render it completely immune or untouched by the force, force lightning is a well known force ability which overcomes beings that are force dead. Extreme protection would imply protection from all force abilities.

Which is why it's been listed under Weaknesses since the beginning.

Edits made.
