Relationship Status: It's Complicated
The Obsidian Strike Armor had been designed to solve a problem which the Knights Obsidian had not faced until war came for them. Light and adaptable, the armor set quickly became the favorite of many among the order which preferred mobility and agility it offered during lightsaber combat. Notably it had been the favorite of Naedira Darcrath who had been wearing it during her death defending the Fortressa from the Mountain, Darth Prazutis himself.
Gerwald had acquired another set for her after her resurrection by dark means. Stores of salvaged equipment remained after the cataclysmic event which had seen the Confederacy of Independent Systems flee Naboo for the far reaches of wild space. The wolf had followed only once Stewjon had been safe, and left once he knew the order had been settled.
His service to Darth Empyrean and Srina Talon proved to be a more loyal tie. His oath to Naedira being the greatest duty of them all.
Both his loyalty and duty led Gerwald to requisition a new version of the armor which had been Naedira’s favorite for those loyal to him as well. The Sith Order needed something for the more modern wars which were heading their way as well. Suffering defeat on Felucia, and the battle with Empire of the Lost on Tion, had only made it more obvious to the Wolf that their forces needed better protection. With the Galactic Alliance moving closer to their space, something which would better protect them in lightsaber combat was a must.
Once again Gerwald called on John Locke for assistance in crafting the armor. The technology used by the CIS was something the cyborg was intimately familiar with. They would use his expertise and combine with Gerwald’s experience in combat to craft something worthy of the campaigns the Sith Order would wage.
