Funani's Personal Armor
Funani after being through enough harrowing near death experiences to realize that hey maybe some armor would be a good idea. The Jawa was unsatisfied with most offerings as they seemed to not be built around his small stature and size. So he decided to make his own armor. Taking common armored flight suits he tore down several suits for raw materials. Then stitched and hacked together a undersuit custom fit for him as well as having all the benefits of a normal flightsuit. Wanting the protection to be more beefy for all of his important vitals he took experimented with and eventually learned how to mold and craft sturdy duraplast. It caused a multitude of long hours and swearing for the Jawa but in the end it was worth. The armor pieces now even have a killer purple finish on them.

Functions
Function 1: Rebreather
- Rebreathers, whether built into a helmet or a separate mask, allow for the wearer to breath underwater or in space for brief amounts of time by scrubbing CO2 from their exhaled breath and recycling it. Generally this lasts for up to 5 posts, but heavy exertion can shorten that time.
- It's no replacement for a dedicated spacesuit if you intend to EVA, but this under suit, when combined with a helmet, can protect the wearer from the immediate effects of exposure to a vacuum for up 5 posting rounds. You still need a way to breathe, however.
- Life support boxes are emergency gear designed to be worn in conjunction with other safety equipment, such as vac-suits and rebreathers. The device can be manually activated via a switch on the chest box, but most also automatically engage when exposed to vacuum. When activated, the device projects a small mag-shield "bubble" around the user that is just strong enough to contain a tiny amount of livable atmosphere. Life support boxes double the protection provided by vac seals and rebreathers- however, without other protective gear, the life support box itself provides only 3 rounds of protection from the elements. It also contains a high power distress beacon that the broadcasts the pilots precise coordinates to any ship within a parsec. The distress beacon can be manually deactivated, and can broadcast for s much longer time than its wearer can survive.
- Magnetic boots contain electromagnets in the soles and allow for enhanced movement on ferrous surfaces in microgravity or steep gradients. This functionality can be turned on or off.
