Affiliation: N/A
Ownership: Thamis Galisdoren
Intent: Personal intent, with no intentions of selling or recreating. Used for protection and looking awesome.
Model: The armor is simply referred to as the Galisdoren Suit, a simple name to honor the family title.
Weight: The armor isn't bulky at all and weighs about twenty one kilograms, including the cloak.
Composition: Most of the armor is made up of a thin durasteel plating, reinforced with a firm titanium mesh and rubber. At the top of the gauntlets is a layer of phrik, though this material does not exist anywhere else on the armor. The cloak is an average synthweave covered in a very light cloth that feels silky to the touch. The cloth was woven into a plating to match the rest of the armor and fire proofed, which gave it a dull, metallic look despite its material.
Rating:The armor offers excellent protection from cold and extreme heat, and can withstand being fully engulfed in fire for up to two minutes before the heat overtakes the wearer. It's especially durable against smaller weapons, vibroswords, unless the hit is delivered at a devastating force, and even low level blasters and explosives. Heavy ballistics and lightsabers, however, would have little problem with cutting into the metal. The armor degrades quickly over time, and requires near constant attention to maintain its shine and durability. Because of the sealants that have been applied to the armor, it is also water resistant. At the joints, the metal is weaker to prevent hindering the wearer, and can be pierced more easilly by smaller weapons. The cloak offers some protection as well, and is also fire resistant. Blaster fire, however, would have a much easier time of cutting through it, as well as vibroswords and similar weapons, although the synthweave is strong enough to act as a shield against shrapnel and other debree. The top of the gauntlets are reinforced with Phrik, which provides resistance against lightsabers.
Description: The armor was designed by Thamis's father to be an effective suit in both battle and stealth. While his father had used it, it was passed down to Thamis when he chose to leave home. It's both lightweight and durable, fortified with strong and flexible material to allow the wearer maximum maneuverability. The armor shines when in direct light, but not in an overpowering manner that would make it the star of the battlefield. The cloak, however, does not reflect light. The armor itself possesses a sleek and smooth look. The helmet is the most fortified of the armor. Over the eyes are goggles that allow the wearer to see well in water, and the view can be quickly switched to night vision via a switch on the side of the cowl. Most of the armor is made up of a thin durasteel plating, offering excellent protection while maintaining a comfortable weight that does not hinder the wearer. The joints, however, are a bit easier to pierce than the rest of the armor, the plating replaced by a flexible titanium mesh, which is also present beneath the plating to provide support and extra protection. At the top of the gauntlets, past the wrist and ending at the elbow is an extra, thin layer of durasteel, which is also present along other parts of the body where it would offer no hindrance, like the shin, granting extra protection. Sharp claws also sprout from the fingertips. The plating on the back and stomach area is also a bit easier to get into with a good enough aim. A thin layer of durasteel protects both sides, however, to aid flexibility, the plating is not entirely smooth, with small breaks fashioned between plates that spread apart as the wearer bends and moves. Filling the breaks is the same firm mesh that covers the joints. The armor is also heavily padded with a very thin rubber, which is placed between the plates and over the mesh to prevent sound.
