Approved Armor Fallen Angel Shield Mk2

[Bido Roz’lyn]

​

Man #1: I still can't get my head around how you guys can go from orbital velocity to landing on the ground, wearing nothing but a flight suit, while under enemy fire.

Man #2: it's really quite simple. We use our gigantic gonads as air brakes.

Man #1: yep, that checks out.

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Combat Mode - This is the configuration that is used when the wearer is involved in personal combat. The shield projects from the forearm in a shield wall and is aimed, much like an M3 Bulwark Blast Shield.
  • Spoiler: Combat Mode

    
• Reentry Mode- this configuration is a one-off use feature. When the device is set to this mode, it re-routes emitted power through separate fuses and regulators that burn out at the end of its cycle. Once the shield is activated in this setting, it does not stop until the fuses burn out, and then it switches over to the one of the other three settings. In order to restore this mode for future use, the burnt out fuses and regulators must be replaced in a shop setting.
  • Spoiler: Reentry Mode

    
• Glider Mode- This mode offers little-to-no protection for the wearer as it refocuses the shield wall into a pair of wings, leaving the body totally exposed. These wings are insufficient for sustained flight, but they give the wearer the ability to guide their fall from great heights. This mode is often used to guide the wearer in mid-fall after the reentry mode is finished and the speed from orbit has been reduced to safe levels.
  • Spoiler: Glider Mode

    
• Blade Mode- in this mode, the shields are focused into hard energy blades that emit from the forearms and over the back of the hands. The blades are only sharp, and don't burn through matter like a lightsaber. The user can use the blades to stop melee attacks from metal blades and lightsabers using well-trained martial arts blocks with the forearms, but the rest of the body is exposed to attacks. In blade mode, the user sacrifices nearly all defence for short-range offence.
  • Spoiler: Blade Mode

    
• OS Interface - this shield has manual buttons which are used to control the functions from the wrist, but it will also interface with the operating system on the owner's armour suit of choice. If the suit itself has a neural interface feature, then the shield can piggyback off that control method as well.

STRENGTHS

• Combat Protection - in combat mode, this device projects a protective wall from the forearm that defends agains most forms of combat damage.
• Death From Above - in reentry mode and glider mode, the user is capable of entering atmosphere from orbit, then gliding to the planet's surface below.
• For Close Encounters - in blade mode, the shield is refocused into sharp blades that extend from the forearms over the hands and gives the owner an edge in close quarters combat.

WEAKNESSES

• Arc Limited - In combat mode this shield is a forearm-projected wall-type shield, it can only provide protection from attacks in one direction at a time.
• Burns Brightly - it is only capable of using reentry mode once per mission and once it starts, it can't enter a different mode until it burns out the reentry fuses and regulators.
• Like a sore thumb - when in glider mode, the shield is reformed into wings that help the wearer to more safely navigate a fall to the ground. During this time, the wings themselves have some resistances to preserve the control surfaces, but the wearer's body is totally exposed to attack.
• Trade Defence For Attack - in blade mode, the shield focuses into hard energy blades that emit from the wrists and over the backs of the wearers hands. In this mode, the only parts of the body that are protected are the backs of the hands and the forearms while the rest of the body is totally unprotected.
• Out of Gas - like all energy shields, the Fallen Angel Energy Shield deteriorates with hits. Because this shield is focused into a single wall, it lasts longer than most, but even still, once it is out of power it loses all of its functions and features.

DESCRIPTION
As the Dornean expatriates returned from their time as refugees, they brought back many technologies with them. One such technology was the Fallen Angel Reentry Energy Shield. When the Dornean Navy got a hold of it, they went ahead and tweaked a few things and improved the overall performance of the devices for their own needs.

As the Dorneans began to put these shields into full production, the Dornean woman Bido Roz’lyn had the most impeccable timing of reaching out to her people on behalf of the Foundation. She intended to facilitate a deal where the Dorneans would sell the shields to the Foundation Navy in bulk for comfortable profits.

Documents were drafted, and agreements were signed. The Foundation, and Dornean Navy now had a highly versatile personal shield system at their disposal.
