STRENGTHS
- Lightsaber Resistant: Designed with fighting Sith in mind, the shield is made from Phrik, giving it the ability to block oncoming blows from a lightsaber.
- Easy to Carry: Phrik is a light material, giving Hans freedom of movement while wielding it.
- Non-Conductive: Although the shield was designed for defense against lightabers, Phrik is a non-conductive material so the shield can also stop electrical attacks like that of Sith Lightning.
WEAKNESSES
- Limited Cover: Unlike a personal deflector shield that can envelope a person entirely, physical shields can only protect the wielder in whatever direction they hold it, typically being either forward or whichever side they carry it on (left in the case of Hans)
DESCRIPTION
As the sole heir of House Rennagen of Raxus, Hans Rennagen needed a way to show it. As an Imperial Knight, Hans needed a way to defend himself in battle. Thus, he reconciled these needs by commissioning a shield of phrik to be forged, resistant to the lightsabers of the Sith he was sure to fight and bearing his family's heraldry. The coat of arms on the shield is divided party per cross and combines his house crest with the crest of the New Imperial Order.
