Edin's Stealth Armor

Edin's personalized armor is intended to offer both anonymity and protection for his upper torso. He has no protection for his legs and below to allow for less coverage and maximum mobility for his covert operations.



LEGALITY

Legal. Made entirely from legal armor and components.

INTENT

To give Edin a versatile set of armor and allow him to do covert jobs and offer protection if he runs into trouble.

RESTRICTIONS
None.

Type and Coverage

Type: Medium Armor

Coverage:


  • Head: Fully enclosed armorplast helmet
  • Torso: Armorplast chest-plate
  • Back: Armorplast back-plate
  • Upper Arms: Armorplast shoulder and upper arm armor plates
  • Lower Arms: Phrik bracers





Functions



Function 1: Grapple Line

  • Grapple lines are capable of supporting the weight of 1-2 people and can launch up to ranges typically up to 15 meters away. Once no longer in use, they are detached from the launcher and left behind. While hand-held grapple guns are capable of auto-winching, armor or wrist mounted devices lack this ability. Grapple lines must be manually activated and controlled by a button or switch.

Function 2: Concealed Blade (Left)

  • Concealed blades are typically 4-6 inches in length and lock into place once extended. They are almost always placed along the fore-arm or boot. They are no substitute for true combat knives as the locking mechanism can break under strong impacts. Still, some people enjoy them as a helpful backup.
Function 3: Mag Boots


  • Magnetic boots contain electromagnets in the soles and allow for enhanced movement on ferrous surfaces in microgravity or steep gradients. This functionality must be turned on or off manually by a button or switch.
Function 4: Voice Scrambler


  • For the unusually paranoid, this helmet function can scramble a person's voice to unintelligible garbage, while allowing commlink conversations to continue as normal. Alternatively, it can be used to "digitize" a voice into a deep bass tone.
Function 5: Scatterweave


  • An incredibly rare and expensive material. Scatterweave is a coating that reflects very little light, making it extremely useful for sneaking at night. It also "scatters" the wearer's heat signature, making it difficult for automated sensor systems or thermal visors to get a precise fix on the wearer's location without intense scans.
