Custom combat prosthesis

Ownership: Dip


Intent: Since his partnership with jedi Jade Evoyn on the planet of Tatooine had begun Dip has come to face all the threats that face the jedi. He has already lost his limbs to light sabres both self inflicted and cut off by a foe. His new enemies have a new demand for better self defence which would include a specially designed combat prosthesis of his own wit and engineered for his use by professionals.


Model: custom ordered, In'Aku Medical Exports


Weight: 16kg


Composition: A durasteel-argrinium alloy plating covering the upper and lower segments of the arm with a titanium-vanadium alloy as the endoskeleton for the cybernetics and an armorweave and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer underlay. The palm in particular is made of two circular disks of ultrachrome-cortosis alloy with the same underlay as the arm segments. The knuckle of the hand is a small tucked and folded segmented titanium blade laced with phrik with a mullinine edge.


Rating: The prosthesis though durable is vulnerable to most forms of damage and decay and requires maintenance. The exception to this being the palm and small blade which are dedicated to close quarter combat with lightsabers. The materials are resistant but can only sustain damage for short period. The arm is not meant to be an overpowering limb and functions with average strength for durabilities sake.


Description: A semi geometric prosthetic with white and blue hues. It is powered by a small powercell located in the shoulder-blade of the limb. The hand has five digits, four 3 segmented fingers and one two segmented thumb. The fingers are attached to a circular disk which acts as a radial palm with a hole the centre. The fingers can move around the palm in 190 degrees.

*Features: The prosthesis has all of it's features in the hand and palm. Each finger has a small folded blade which can extend and unfurl to connect with one another to form a small knuckle blade. Each finger also possesses a small utility such as a syringe, a screwdriver, a compact micro-cutter, and a small hook.

I'd change the composition around a little if I were you.

Lets start with the endoskeleton and work outward from there, a solid titanium-vanadium alloy used throughout the arm would make it heavy sure but also durable as ****, you'd be able to lift a couple hundred pounds with that arm. From there we have the cybernetics which I would have wrapped in agrinium for high resistance to multiple forms of radiation, most likely including ionising radiation which would make your cybernetics resistant to ion weaponry although immunity is unlikely.

From there I'd change the phrik blade into a titanium blade laced with phrik with a mullinine edge instead. titanium is lightsaber resistant already and the phrik only serves to provide extra protection against glancing blows of a lightsaber. You'll also want to include the length of this blade and I presume it extends from the underside of the wrist much like an assassin's creed blade. This would make it more of a stealth weapon instead of a pure aggressive tactic, plus it frees up the knuckles to have a retractable knuckle plate vibro blade instead. I'd also look at the vibro-shiv as a possibility for the retractable assassin's creed style blade.

Those palm plate are something I'd have as more as ultrachrome-cortosis alloy plates instead, as well as having similar plates covering the joints in the elbow and shoulder just because those are weak points. The main material for the arm's outer coating should be durasteel-argrinium alloy to provide extra protection against ion weaponry as well as other forms of radiation and to cause the durasteel to be slightly weaker against lightsabers for the sake of balance. On top of that is where the armorweave and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer underlay would come into play and I'd throw some sythflesh on top if you wanted to have the appearance of a regular arm but that's purely cosmetic.​

Sorry it took so long for someone to get to you. My only feedback before approving this is that you're going to need a power source.

I'd also ask for a max load the arm can lift, but if you're just going to regular arm strength, then that's not really needed.

Added. Anything else?

Nope, looks good to me. Approved.
