Vala Darakis' Beskar'gam
Vala's armor differs slightly from your average Mandalorian armor. She has done away with the signature t-visor and has taken influences from different types of armor all over the galaxy. Over a tight fitting bodysuit and a coverall she wears a chest and back plate and a helmet.
LEGALITY
Mandalorian armor, though rare, is not illegal in most places. That said, wearing a full face helmet in public spaces is frowned upon, and often illegal in many core worlds, especially in or near government facilities.
INTENT
Provide a visual for Vala's armor and a list of Functions in a slight modification of the Medium Mandalorian Armor template.

Functions
Function 1: Filter
- Filters are bulky attachments to a helmet, or function as part of a mask, that filter out environmental contaminants such as smoke or most toxins. They are susceptible to caustic substances and damage.
- Scout HUD - Contains a 4x magnifier and Compass.
- Reads atmosphere composition and detects toxins.
- This Allows the Helmet HUD to cycle to low-light vision modes.
- Jet packs are back mounted units used by elite troops increase their mobility on the battlefield. The jet pack's maximum speed is 50 kph and it carries fuel for up to five minutes of continuous flight (flight mode), but can also be fired in short bursts triggered by jumping (combat mode). The wearer can control the system to switch between modes and/or disengage it from their armor via wrist controls. These packs are cumbersome, adding an additional 8kg for the average human (larger individuals will have heavier jet packs to support their weight). While the fuel is stable enough not to explode, direct hits from weapons can trigger the system inadvertently, after which it is rendered useless.
