Dashiell Retrofit™

- Intent: To design a Star Wars-inspired melee shield tailored for Balun Dashiell, combining advanced technology with the rugged durability of medieval armaments. This shield will complement his Lightsaber, forming a formidable tank-style combat style. It should seamlessly blend defensive strength with versatility, allowing Balun to withstand heavy attacks while maintaining offensive capability in close-quarters combat.

- Faraday Cage: The integrated Faraday Cage within the Personal Vambrace ensures unparalleled protection against ION and EMP-based weaponry, safeguarding the shield's internal systems from disruption. This advanced defense mechanism effectively neutralizes external energy-based attacks, preventing electromagnetic interference from disabling the shield and ensuring its reliability in the heat of battle.
- The vambrace generates a continuous energy shield, forming a resilient barrier capable of withstanding both lightsaber strikes and blaster fire. Blaster bolts that impact the shield do not ricochet but dissolve harmlessly upon contact. Meanwhile, lightsabers rebound cleanly off the shield's surface without disrupting their energy flow, allowing for seamless defensive maneuvers in combat.
- The shield offers formidable defense against incoming attacks but is limited to covering a single direction at a time. If raised to block a frontal assault, it must be repositioned to counter a strike from the side, creating an inherent vulnerability where unguarded angles remain exposed. This requires the wielder to be strategic and reactive, constantly adjusting their defense to match the flow of battle.
Balun Dashiell designed his personal energy shield to enhance his defenses against adversaries wielding multiple lightsabers and to safeguard himself from ranged weapon fire. With the vast resources of his tech manufacturing company, Dashiell Retrofit™, at his disposal, he set out to modify a vambrace tailored for his left hand. Reinforced with Phrik plating for durability and an internal Faraday cage to shield its electronics from electromagnetic pulse attacks, the vambrace became a sophisticated fusion of Jedi combat principles and cutting-edge engineering—an impenetrable barrier in the heat of battle.
