- Force-imbued: the armour were Force imbued by Ingrid, as a result, the armour became even more resistant without actually having a heavier weight
- Stealth: The armour’s extensive stealth range affords the wearer either difficult to detect or nearly invisible. This allows a wearer to sneak up to opponents or escape from the combat.
- High resistance: The armour is designed to provide quite a few types of protection to the wearer, without impeding movement. Several of which are quite strong due to the materials used. After all, who knows what kind of opponent she will face in melee.
- Change with her: Under the influence of the Changing molecule (which has been mixed with Kessia’s DNA), the armour is able to follow a woman’s shape-shifting.
- Force-imbued: although made with a completely neutral Force, there is a chance that the presence of the weapon will be revealed by the Force Users if they search it. The effect can be reduced with the Taozin amulet.
- EMP and Ion: Since the user can also get most of the benefits of the armor by using Force, there is no EMP protection in the armour. Thus, electrical equipment used with armor has no protection.
- No Internal Power: Because the armour does not have an internal power supply, each device operates on its own battery. The helmet sensors are most disturbed by this fact, they only work this way for a very limited time.
- Force Nullification: Because the armour is Force-Imbued, if it is placed in a location where there is no Force or is currently undergoing Force blocking (by another Force User or object), the extreme cold, extreme heat, acid, elemental, and electric resistance will be reduced to Low from the average. There is no change in the others because it comes from different materials and not from the Force-imbued state.
- Sound attacks: While the armour protects against blasters and other effects and influences, this cannot be said against the voice-based attacks, the armour protects against them very little and the wearer is almost completely affected by this type of attack.
- Disruptor: While armour protects against quite a lot of things, disruptors are not included, armour does not protect against this type of weapon. So if someone hit the wearer with this, the wearer will almost certainly die.
What works, why should it change? That was probably Ingrid L’lerim-Vandiir's thought when she made this armour. The Empress tested her similar armour on her own for a long time, and since that one worked well, she made one for her bodyguard as well. Perhaps the question may arise as to why some waste such armour for a bodyguard. But since Kessia used to replace the woman and she was the Empress's first asset, it was not a question anymore.
The armour has the same features as the first version, but it is made of different materials. By now, HPI Consortium has developed some widely used raw materials, so those have been used for this armour.
Armour adds protection to many things, but that’s why it has its own weaknesses, because it provides little protection against others. Its weight is light, it does not hinder movement at all, here too it was important that the armour could be used perfectly for stealth, in almost any conditions. In exchange for greater protection, Ingrid L’lerim-Vandiir also alchemized the armour. This is why Force nullification weakens and reduces armour protections.
Since Kessia typically likes to use cloak as well, and has always used it (which makes her look like a Sith, though she is closer to the Sith than to the Wardens of the Shroud), so additional to the armour, even this cloak is made with similar protection, like armour.
This was also necessary because of the war, and a possible war with Bryn’adûl. Last but not least, it never hurts to have the Empress's unofficial right hand with adequate protection in the battle field.
