Description: Tarok had a weakness his suit made quick movement in lightsaber combat near imposable. To make up for this fatal flaw Tarok researched ways to make up for this bring him to a notable sith lord by the name of Darth Desolous who developed cortosis shields. The results of the shields drove tarok to make his on but instead of cortosis tarok used phrik a nearly indestructible material to make up for the eventual wear down of cortosis. while the shield had its advantages the drawbacks were deadly in the hands of an untrained user. If one didn't train his body he would quickly tire out in a battle or be unable to move the shield in time to deflect lightsabers.
