ARMOR NAME

DESCRIBE YOUR ARMOR. Slightly modified variant of the U5s standard durasteel armor plating which is built onto the droid's chassis. The armour covers mainly the torso of the droid. The design of theprotective covering was created with coverage and resilience in mind.

LEGALITY

Legal everywhere. May draw slight attention due to minor modifications.

INTENT

WHY DO WE NEED THIS? WHAT IMPORTANT NICHE DOES IT FILL? Custom Armour for 5K-U5

ADVANCED TECH
NO.
Type and Coverage

Type: Light
Coverage: (Coverage regions for Light armor is 1-3 regions, Medium is 4-5, Heavy is 6-7)


    • Head: Durasteel plates covering majority of the head, Clear Duraplast plates covering the Photoreceptors
    • Torso: Solid Durasteel Plates cover majority of the torso
    • Back: Solid Durasteel Plates cover majority of the back

Functions


Function 1: 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 short blasts from flamethrower weapons or brief exposure to extreme heat, and are only good for 1-2 posts of exposure depending on intensity. They are useless against blasters.
Function 2: Gription-Boots
  • Gription boots are a catch all term for footwear that contains electromagnets, repulsors, or other tech in the soles and allow for steady movement on ferrous surfaces in microgravity, steep gradients, and even upside down. This functionality must be turned on or off manually by a button or switch.
Function 3: Computer Spike
  • Computer spikes are electronic interface tools used to forcibly decrypt or unlock computer terminals. Most unencrypted civilian systems can be cracked in one full posting round, while most military or hardened systems take two or more.
Function 4: Jump Boots
  • This unusual technology- a precursor to rocket boots- is able to propel a person up to 10 meters beyond what a normal person would normally be able to jump, especially when armored. It is not capable of sustained flight, and requires a brief engine cool-down before it can be used again (1 post cool-down).
Function 5: Recorder
  • The recorder, usually located in the helmet, is a device that records visual audio content for up to an hour. It has to be activated by the user manually for it to begin. It is capable of working with existing HUD systems like advanced zoom (scout HUD) or night vision however as a stand alone function it does not possess any such additional abilities. This recorded data can be transferred to a data storage device or terminal as well after the desired content is captured. A small thumb sized data drive holds the data and can be removed, overwritten or replaced at the disgression of the user.
