the Kid for the Win
DESCRIPTION
Following Ryv Karis' departure from the Galactic Alliance in the years leading up to the attempted Annihilation of Tython, the kiffar hung up his jacket in favor of something a little less recognizable. He opted for the ever-reliable poncho. It was the perfect cover on a planet like Denon, which had spent many years trapped in an ongoing war between corporate interests and the little guy. His poncho functioned to protect him from blasters, lightsabers, and extreme temperatures.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Constructed from hide taken from a dying Loth-Wolf, this poncho allows the wearer to hyperspace tunnel on planets with a strong presence in the Light Side. The wearer has to be intimately familiar with the planet in the way they would be their own home.
STRENGTHS
- High Maneuverability: It's a poncho!
- Extreme Energy Resistance: The inclusion of armorweave and cortosis serves to weaken the impact of lightsabers against the fabric, allowing the wearer to escape with minor burns, as opposed to horrific maiming or permanent death.
- High Kinetic Resistance: Armorweave and Loth-Wolf hide allow the wearer to shrug off superficial damage.
- High Thermal Resistance: The breathability of the weave and the reliability of the leather allow the wearer to endure high temperatures.
- Hyperspace Tunneling: Traveling at lightspeed is pretty cool. It's almost like teleportation.
- Exposed Lower Half: It's a poncho!!
- I HAD a Need for Speed: Force suppression will take away the cool power and turn it solely into a functional article armor piece. Not cool, dudes.
- Sense: Those capable with the Force Sense ability should be able to Sense this item.
