The Butcher's Cuirass

A hodgepodge of armor bits collected over decades of war and piracy, this is Vrash's personal armor set. When not in combat, he chooses his traditional Kaleesh mask over a visored helm.

LEGALITY

Though not exactly illegal, a merc this heavily armed is sure to be eyed by security personnel unless accompanied by people of respectable standing.

INTENT

Given it is comprised of various bits patchworked together as trophies, I felt this needed to be a bit more fleshed out.

RESTRICTIONS
As the former Pirate Lords armor, one would need to kill him to obtain it.

Type and Coverage

Type: Medium/Heavy Armor

Coverage: Medium is 4-5/Heavy is 6-7


  • Head: Traditional Kaleesh mask reinforced with duraplast plating when not in combat. Full visored durasplast visored helm with duraplast chainlink mail covering the neck.
  • Torso:Reinforced duraplast cuirass patchwork smithed together via various plates and pieces. Black leatharis underlay.
  • Back: Piecemeal duraplast cuirass. Despite having pieces from various armors, the gaps are not particularly wide. Black leatharis underlay beneath.
  • Upper Arms: A combination of segmented duraplast pauldrons and molded plates to allow for mobility with duraplast chainlinks over less critical areas. Leatharis underlay underneath.
  • Lower Arms: Duraplast chainlinks, leatharis underlay, Duraplast plating and molding. Beskar right bracer to allow for easy switching of attatchements. Cortosis left bracer for deflecting sabers with attatchement for repulsor.

  • Lower Legs: Molded duraplast calf plate and shin guard. Hardened leatharis boots with segemented duraplast plates for protection.





Functions



Function 1: Function: Rebreather

    • 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 2: Function: 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 or cold, and are only good for 1-2 posts of exposure depending on intensity. They are useless against blasters.
    • Force User Compatible?: No
Function 3: Function: Jet Boots

    • Miniaturized jetpack technology, jetboots (also called "rocket boots") are essentially boots to which small jetpack thrusters have been attached. The wearer must activate/deactivate the thrusters modes via wrist-mounted controls. Like an average jetpack, jetboots permit a maximum speed of 35kph and can maintain this speed for two minutes of continuous flight (flight mode). In combat (mode), they can be used in short bursts to propel the wearer up to seven (7) meters. Jet boots are much smaller, lighter, and less vulnerable to attack and damage than jetpacks, but are also very difficult to utilize effectively, and wearers can be easily thrown off course.
    • Force User Compatible?: No
Function 4: Function: Repulsor

    • Originally designed to counter combat with force sensitives, this tool is able to project a strong repulsor field replicating a Force push. It projects up 10 meters and its limited power cell only allows for 3 uses before it needed changing. The repulsor has significant recoil and the wielder must carefully brace themselves before use- both to ensure accuracy and to prevent the user from being knocked over themselves or having their arm torn from its socket.
    • Force User Compatible?: No
    .
Function 5: Function: Whistling Birds

    • Whistling birds are an extremely rare and powerful device for dealing with multiple assailants. Requires an enclosed helmet or visor for use. Can target up to four visible enemies within a 15 meter radius of the wielder and fires miniature seeking rockets at each. Each rocket deals light explosive damage and additionally causes a light concussion grenade effect (half effectiveness) within half a meter of detonation point. A whistling bird magazine typically carries 12 rounds before having to be replaced.
    • Restricted: Yes. Can only effectively target NPCs.
    • Force User Compatible?: No.
