Intent: To create an optional armour for use by Knight of Ren characters
Development Thread: Cats on Fire
Manufacturer: Order of Ren
Model: N/A
Affiliation: First Order
Modularity: As the armour comes in separate pieces, it is optional as to which plates the wearer may wish to use. For example, perhaps the wearer would only wish to use the gauntlets, or not use the face guard.
Production: Limited (KoR PCs & NPCs)
Material: Phrik
Classification: Multi-purpose
Weight: Full armour(Plates on chest, legs, gauntlets, face-guard) - 5kg
Quality: 8
Special Features: Lightsaber, blaster, slug, piercing, slicing resistance
Strengths:
+ Protective - Lightsaber, blaster, slug, piercing, slicing
+ Mobility - Phrik is lightweight, creating less of a negative effect on speed than other armours. The person's joints are also free of obstruction from any plates to provide maximum freedom of movement.
+ Customisable - At the user's wish, plates can be removed as desired. For example only the breastplate may be chosen to be used, etc.
Weaknesses:
- Points of Exposure - In return for the mobility comes many weak spots in the armour, namely at the armpits, arms, neck, upper part of face not covered by faceguard, and other joints.
- Kinetic Damage - Being simple plates of armour, the plates may dampen but not stop the kinetic damage caused by sheer blunt force, whether that be from a blunt weapon, a lightsaber, etc.
- Force Penetrable - Phrik provides no resistance against Force powers that could normally penetrate armour.
Description:
Intended to provide maximum protection while preserving mobility and stealth, the Armour of Ren is a simple assortment of a chest-and-back piece, shoulder pads, gauntlets, leg greaves and face-guard provided to give the members of the Order of Ren the best possible advantage in the field. Made available to Disciples, Knights and Masters, the armour is provided as an optional accessory to be used to maximise one's combat effectiveness. As the armour is in separate pieces it is up to the wearer which parts or pieces they will wear.
The armour can be worn underneath robes and is easily concealable, while also offering the Knights of Ren a uniformity with each other that exemplifies their ethos as smaller parts of a greater whole, working in tandem. Made of phrik, the armour is lightweight yet highly durable, able to withstand such attacks from the blows of a lightsaber to blaster fire. The plates of armour are also designed as to not obstruct any joints, providing the maximum possible freedom of movement to the wearer. This comes with its flaws however, as the arms, neck and other joints are exposed.
