Armor Cigo Duarn's Beskar'gam

[Topher Ridge]

Cigo's Beskar'gam

This is Iron Skin of Cigo Duarn. It's been heavily modified and re-forged since it was first presented to Cigo at the completion of his Verd'goten. It's a bit of an unusual design compared to most Beskar'gams, designed to aid Cigo in his role as mercenary commando. Such as being finished with a matte paint finish to reduce reflections off the armor and it being more tightly fitted, with only a short cape for ornamentation and to conceal the jetback on his back.

With the scarcity of Beskar these days, the only part of Cigo's armor that is pure Beskar is the helmet with darkened transparisteel for the visor. Inside said helmet are all the modern necessities like a built in comlink, basic Hud, and integrated sound system. The rest of the armor is made up duraplast plates laid over a fitted environment suit with hardened leather gloves and equipment holsters..

LEGALITY

Would definitely garner glances from all around, but for the most part nobody would reasonably arrest Cigo for wearing it.

INTENT

Just the custom Mando armor for my Mando guy.

Functions​

Function 1: Environment Suit

• While it is not rated for extended exposure to extreme hazards, this body suit (when combined with an enclosed helmet) can protect the wearers body from the effects of environmental and weaponized toxins and similar hazards for up to 5 posting rounds.

Function 2: Whipcord Launcher (Right Bracer)

• The whipcord launcher was a personal weapon that fired a thin fibercord whip which then wrapped around and ensnared the target to restrict mobility up to 10 meters away while remaining attached to the mount point. It was detachable with a second use of the firing button. The whipcord launcher was favored by bounty hunters, as it was easy to carry and use and it virtually always ensured a live capture, though it could be cut by a vibro blade with ease.

Function 3: Vision Modes

• This Allows a Helmet HUD to cycle to low-light OR thermal vision modes.

Function 4: Wrist Rocket (Left Bracer)

• Wrist rockets have a flight range of 100 meters and have a blast radius of 3 meters. They are single-shot devices and require manual reloading after use. They are effective against lightly armored vehicles, moving parts such as gears or hydraulics, and infantry, and do equivalent damage to a frag grenade. The must be manually fired by button or trigger.

Function 5: Jetpack

• 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.
