WER'S MANDALORIAN FIREWORM ARMOR​

TYPE
Heavy Armor
COVERAGE

• Torso: Segmented beskar-alloy plating over scaleless Wormhide undersuit covering most of torso
• Back: Solid beskar-alloy plating over scaleless Wormhide undersuit, covering upper back
• Upper Arms: Fireworm Scaled pauldrons and duraplast elbow protectors
• Lower Arms: Armored Boots with duraplast shin plating and knee pads
• Upper Legs: Fireworm coated gambeson, Duraplast side plates

FUNCTIONS​

Function 1: Utility HUD

• Scout HUD - Contains a 4x magnifier and Compass.

Function 2: 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 3: Wrist Flamethrower

• Wrist flamers are rare, expensive, and dangerous armor attachments favored by mercenaries and soldiers more than bounty hunters, and are illegal in many systems. Wrist flamers are powered by small fuel capsules, and typically hold enough for 3 short bursts of flame. These bursts last 2 seconds, are one meter wide and have a maximum range of 3 meters. Must be disassembled to be reloaded.

Function 4: Fireworm Hide (AKA Thermal Undersuit)

• The Fireworm hide functions identically to a thermal undersuit, made to wick away or reflect thermal energy for brief periods of time. It is 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.

DESCRIPTION​

Black Mandalorian styled armor with blue accents, with the additions of blue painted Fireworm scales attached to a gmbeson as well as to the pauldrons.

Mandalorian armor is traditionally made from beskar; however, the scarcity of such a material has led Mandalorians to search out the next best alternative. For Wer Tracyn, this answer came in the volcanic pits of fire that covered the surface of Sullust. There, he and his ner'vod defeated a massive Fireworm.

During that battle, Wer discovered that the great wyrm’s scales were highly resistant to the foreign lava it called home as well as a variety of conventional weapons. Finally bringing down the great beast, the Mandalorian brothers took her scales and found that they could be compressed into thin flexible sheets that were exponentially resistant to outside attacks and uniquely heat resistant. While the Worm's scales and the hide lost their mythical lava protection once removed from the corpse of the Fireworm, the scales still provided similiar protection to most duraplasts, and the covering of the heavy but flexible hide provided intense fire resistances (Represented in Function 4).

With careful crafting these scales could be compressed into a unique Getaceran signature set of beskar’gam. Heavy and protective, this armor has become a signature of House Getacerar along with the hunt of the myth beast from which it is derived.

LEGALITY​

Legal anywhere Mandalorian armor and its attachments are legal. Will attract attention from many groups, since the only way to acquire the scales is through the death of a Fireworm

INTENT​

To create a heavy armor for Wer that both celebrates his victory over the Fireworm of Sullust as well as to create armor to suit his style of being less dodge oriented.

RESTRICTIONS​

Users must have completed a hunting of a Fireworm, also known as Lava Dragons on Eol Sha.
