Bakura's Protector Armor
Issued for the most trusted agent of Governor Alyse Ti'Varnus, this armor is based on the Oathkeeper prototype that never reached Bakuran Special Forces. But it has now found a new use by the Governor's enforcer—secretly Nykoria Tallis, a Jedi Master who chose to distance herself from the Order, but not from its teachings.
The enclosed duraplast helmet features a built-in comlink, a voice scrambler, and an advanced HUD with low-light and thermal vision modes. Armorweave underlay and removable duraplast plates offer body protection. The hands and lower arms are shielded with phrik, that can withstand even a blow from a lightsaber. In line with the Jedi tradition, Nykoria also opted for a cape, although it isn't as common is Bakuran Armed Forces.
The armor can easily be tailored for any mission Nykoria might need to undertake. For example, the armorweave underlay can be replaced with a heavier armorweave vac-suit for missions in space. Likewise, the rebreather is usually detached from the helmet, and can even be used separately. When not in use, the rebreather is stored in one of the many pouches of the utility belt.
What makes this armor's different from the rest is its design. The white armor plates with red trim and insignia clearly show its wearer's high standing and affiliation with Bakura's Defense Forces. Though the colors can be changed as needed between missions.
LEGALITY
Legal. Wearing a fully-enclosed helmet in public without a good reason may be frowned upon in the more civilized worlds. Especially if you decide to use a voice scrambler. This can be somewhat alleviated by the fact that this armor is associated with a lawful organization.
INTENT
To describe Nykoria's new armor set that was provided to her after she had secured a job on Bakura. It works pretty much like its generic counterpart, except for the fact that its specifically Kori's, and clearly shows its affiliation. Unless the markings and insignia are removed, and the suit is re-colored between threads.

TYPE AND COVERAGE
Type: Light Armor
Coverage: (Coverage regions for Light armor is 1-3 regions, Medium is 4-5, Heavy is 6-7)
- Head: Enclosed duraplast helmet with removable rebreather
- Torso: Lightweight durafiber tunic with removable duraplast plates to protect chest and abdomen
- Lower arms: Gloves with segmented plates of phrik; phrik bracers to protect hands, wrists, and forearms
- Neck, torso, back, arms, legs: Armorweave underlay (see "Function 1")
FUNCTIONS
Function 1: Armorweave Accessory (Default; not removable)
- Most often in the form of a heavy cape, skirt, or underlay beneath armor, armor weave provides some protection against the penetrating effects of shrapnel from explosives and other unpowered high velocity impacts, with only a small amount of bleed through damage (bruising or very minor wounds). It offers no protection against kinetic impact or energy, vibroweapons, or similar "powered" weapons. Having more than one accessory (example: Cape + underweave) provides no additional effect.
- Force User Compatible?: Yes
Function 2: Vision Modes (Default; removable with helmet)
- This Allows a Helmet HUD to cycle to low-light OR thermal vision modes.
- Force User Compatible?: Yes
Function 3: Voice Scrambler (Default; removable with helmet)
- For the unusually paranoid, this helmet function can scramble a person's voice to unintelligible garbage, while allowing commlink conversations to continue as normal. Alternatively, it can be used to "digitize" a voice into a deep bass tone.
- Force User Compatible?: Yes
Function 4: Rebreather (Optional; can be attached to helmet or used separately)
- Rebreathers allow for a person to survive underwater or in space for brief amounts of time by scrubbing CO2 from their exhaled breath. Generally this lasts for 3-4 posts, but heavy exertion can shorten that time.
- Force User Compatible?: Yes
Function 5: Emergency Vac-Suit (Optional; laced with armorweave to retain function 1 and avoid confusion)
- It's no replacement for a spacesuit if you intend to EVA, but this undersuit, if combined with a helmet, can protect the wearer from the immediate effects of exposure to a vacuum for 5 posting rounds. You still need a way to breathe, however.
- Force User Compatible?: Yes
