Whisperer's Travelling Outfit is the Praetorian Guard's principal dress when not garbed in either the ubiquitous scarlet armour of the Guard or her modified Stormtrooper Armour used when active as a member of 'Fireteam Sturm' often Whisperer requires less than fully fledged military body armour such as in day-to-day life and when deployed on worlds neutral or outright hostile to the First Order where discretion is a must. With a focus on discretion, all pockets are lined with baffleweave to prevent sensors or scanners from detection the contents of Whisperer's person at any given time, this is where she'll often carry sensitive equipment, personal effects, and concealed weapons. Whisperer's Travelling outfit undergarments consists of a charcoal-coloured loosely fitting Imperial-styled blouse and trousers constructed from fine and expensive Toumon Cloth with a thin layer of baffleweave and armourweave materials woven into the cloth to provide sensor-jamming and limited protective qualities.
The form-fitting Titanium and Fleximetal armour find itself sheathed in leather firstly to conceal the armour and secondly for increased warmth in colder climates. The cuirass is of layered hot-rolled Fleximetal and Titanium construction, conferring excellent protection against energy and kinetic weapons albeit energy weapons have their power converted into blunt force trauma with sufficiently powerful blasters still fully capable of inflicting debilitating injuries. The remaining armor components are constructed exclusively of welded titanium and sheathed in ornate leather and sports artistic design of distinctly non-imperial origin. A novel protective quality featured by the outfit is fire retardation, it will not ignite when exposed to a naked flame although this doesn't protect the wearer from receiving burns or suffering other effects of being around fire for extended periods of time such as smoke inhalation or high ambient temperature.
STRENGTHS
Baffleweave: Baffleweave helps prevent scanners or sensors from receiving accurate readings on the wearer's pockets or their person, permitting the concealment of weapons or other sensitive equipment.
Cut Resistant: Thanks to a reinforced fiber construction the high-quality fabric is resistant to cuts and slashing which makes it useful for situations where encounters with encounters with foes wielding simple bladed weapons are expected or for use in environments where sharp edges are a landscape feature while also providing protection from hostile wildlife.
Minimalistic: With an outwardly minimalistic appearance the outfit is excellent when used in clandestine operations where avoiding detection by blending into a civilian populace a must while providing practical functionality.
Protection: The armored portions of the outfit provide good protective qualities against kinetic weapons or ranged plasma-based weapons, permitting its Praetorian Guard wearer to put themselves in low-intensity combat situations where weapons of this type are commonly used.
WEAKNESSES
Armour Surface-Area: The kinetic and blaster resistances are limited in effectiveness by the concentration of armour on the forearms, deltoids, biceps, triceps, abdomen and lower thorax. Anywhere else on the outfit is still extremely vulnerable.
Electrical/Ion Attacks: Ion or Electrical attacks have an immediate effect on the wearer encountering little resistance, however, electrical attacks conducting through a stood-upon surface will be insulated by leather boots.
Lightsabers: Lightsabres find extremely little resistance here, they'll cut through the outfit like a hot knife through butter even through the armoured components.
Not Sealed: With no sealed envirosuit to speak of the wearer is completely vulnerable to toxic inhalants or the vacuum of space, it also compromises elemental safety as the wearer's skin is exposed to climate extremes.
Sonics: The Outfit provides little in the way of protection from sonic weapons with the head and body all extremely vulnerable to the concussive forces created by sonic blasters.
