STRENGTHS

• Lightsaber Resistance
  • Due to the construction materials used in this set of robes, namely the Cortosis-Weave, these was already likely to be resistant to lightsabers. Using Sith alchemical skills taught by Taeli Raaf however, the robes were alchemised in much the same way a Sith Sword would be in order to allow for lightsaber and blaster bolts alike. This alchemical boost, mixed with the Cortosis-Weave allows for these higher levels of lightsaber resistance.
• Energy Resistance
  • Again, partly due to construction materials and partly due to the Sith alchemy that was employed during creation that altered these robes, they have a solid defence against energy bolts and blaster bolts that may be directed towards the wearer. The alchemised materials serve to protect, with blaster bolts appearing to be deflected by the robes donned by their wearer.
• Kinetic Resistance
  • Less due to the Sith alchemy employed during the creation of these robes and more to do with the materials they are constructed out of, these robes offer good resistance to kinetic based attacks and are able to disperse the kinetic energy from these attacks across the armour instead of into the wearer.
• Environmental Resistance
  • Due to just being naturally thick clothing, these robes will do well to protect a wearer from extreme cold or wet temperatures and layers such as the cloak can be removed should a wearer become too warm on naturally warmer planets. Whilst a wearer is still likely to be a little bit sweaty, they won't be dangerously hot and the advantage of not freezing to death on colder planets definitely offsets that.

WEAKNESSES

• EMP/Ion
  • These robes are not designed to protect against EMP or Ion attacks. With two gauntlets both using technology in some form, a well placed EMP or Ion attack with disable two decent features of these robes and leave a wearer much more vulnerable.
• Radiation
  • As it says on the tin really, these robes have very little protection from radiation and whilst they may stop the radioactive waves penetrating the skin they'll still penetrate the face and enter the body that way.
• Force Nullifcation Effects
  • Sith Alchemy is predominately a force powered effect. The galaxy has a lot of different things that can nullify a force effect. Put two and two together and it becomes apparent that this armour is nullifiable by force nullifying items. When this happens, all resistances drop by one to offset the lack of Sith Alchemy effects.
• Volatile
  • Any good shot on the ZKZ "Nightfall" Wrist Blaster, or too much use of it's overload function could lead to damage to the device which in turn unleashes nasty chemicals which could lead to injuries for the wearer of the armour.
• Mechu-Deru
  • The other gauntlet isn't much better, an unspoken weakness of any technology is a vulnerability to Mechu-Deru attcks. A skilled practicioner can all but nulify this weapon, leaving it either a short sword that's a bit rubbish or entirely unsheathable, which is even worse.

DESCRIPTION
A joint venture between Helix Solutions own Commodore Helix and the youthful Sith Zachariah Conway , this set of protective robes was designed by the young boy and built by the droid to offer the young Sith protection from the typical attacks that he was likely to face as he continued to grow in power. These typical attacks were identified and lightsabers and blasters, which these robes have been designed to protect against and built to defend against.

Once off the production like, Zachariah used techniques taught to him by different Sith tutors to alchemise these robes to provide even more protection against lightsabers and blasters both, in order to keep himself safe and protected whilst being a Sith who continues to grow in power.

With the ability to don a cloak, or not depending on the situation, these robes are faily versatile and can be used from the most basic and casual of situations to more classy situations where one may be expected to dress up a little more. The ability to swap out cloaks also allows for the wearer of these robes to add further protection in the form of specialised cloaks should they wish to do so.
