- Blasterproof: As clothing goes, this gown is exceptionally durable against blaster fire in particular, able to withstand even direct hits. It is not indestructible, however—one's best bet for survival if somebody starts shooting is still to run for cover.
- Sleeps With Vibroblades: The gown also boasts some defense against kinetic blows from weapons such as vibroblades, albeit to a lesser extent than energy. It could probably withstand a glancing blow, but a direct hit would be pushing it.
- Waterproof: The fabric has been treated so that it will not retain water (and become heavy) when submerged.
- Fireproof: The gown is resistant to fire damage.
- Pockets: It has pockets on the sides.
- Blessed: Sycorax had the gown blessed by the Master of Cerements, a type of Dahrtagian high priest. This blessing grants the gown an exceptional defense against the Dark Side.
- Ionic: The gown has no protection against Ion energy. Stay away from lightning while wearing it.
- Lightsabers: The gown has no real durability against lightsabers.
- Revealing: The gown leaves a fair amount of bare skin exposed. Anywhere that isn't covered up will remain unprotected.
- Force Voids: Any Force-voiding material or substance will render the blessing inert until it is removed from the vicinity.
Much to Thelma's delight, the newly elected representative of her homeworld commissioned a set of formal wear for various political functions. The resulting wardrobe is heavily inspired by the popular fashions of Lamont, the capital of Dahrtag.
The second of these outfits, the so-called "Mourning Gown" is a long-sleeve tailored black suit dress with a buttoned down leg slit opening. The dress features an off the shoulder neckline with a sheer black lace pelerine. It is adorned with a bold and mystical gold neckpiece inspired by Senator Laveaux's faith in the old ways.
