Tecov's Medium Mandalorian Armor


Tecov originally earned a set of Mandalorian armor during the Hundred Years of Darkness when on the run from Cowls. On Vatol he was adopted into the Mandalorian lifestyle of Clan Skirata and donned not only the armor the Mandalorian culture but took on the colors of his new name.

Now, having reclaimed his lost armor and outfitted with proper equipment he uses it when something more than simple street clothes is called for. He has re-found his mandalorian identity and while he wears the armor with pride he does so also in a humble manner for the last time he wore it, nearly a century ago, he had lost everything.



LEGALITY
Legal in all systems. Upper Class Societies like Alderaan may frown upon this armor in public places, and private business reserve the right to bar entrance to heavily armored individuals. Additionally the functional attachments added to this armor may violate local laws. Modify with care.

INTENT
This is Tecov Skirata's personal armor and will be changed as the TL goes on and advanced tech is acquired since I can't run around with just a biker outfit. Based off of this writeup

ADVANCED TECH
No, not yet.

Functions

Function 1: Grappling Hook
Grapple lines are capable of supporting the weight of 1-2 people and can launch up to ranges typically up to 15 meters away. Once no longer in use, they are detached from the launcher and left behind. While hand-held grapple guns are capable of auto-winching, armor or wrist mounted devices lack this ability. Grapple lines must be manually activated and controlled by a button or switch.

Function 2: Thermal Undersuit
Thermal undersuits wick away or reflect thermal energy for brief periods of time. They are not nearly as effective as a suit that firefighters would wear. Most commonly used to protect soldiers from flamethrower weapons or short bursts of extreme heat, and are only good for 1-2 posts of exposure depending on intensity. They are useless against blasters.

Function 3: Defensive Spikes
A set of three collapsible 5 cm (2 inch) blades that deploy from the side of a gauntlet or bracer. The blades taper backwards with a protruding tip, allowing the user to grapple and trap melee weapons. They can also be used in hand-to-hand combat, as cutting tools, and as climbing gear in a pinch.

Function 4: Wrist Blades
The big, mean cousin of the standard concealed blade, these twin, 25-30 centimeter, cortosis-alloy gauntlet blades are designed for combat. They are durable enough to take the shock of an impact and their jagged design is perfect for causing damage to soft targets. The blades are so large, however, that they can no longer be concealed, being clearly visible even when collapsed into the gauntlet for storage.
