Welcome to Gaia! ::

(ooc: I like the weapon, it's a neat idea. But I still have a problem with the tachyon component. By their nature, tachyons are hard to study and even harder to harness. Also, tachyon and near-lightspeed don't really go together. Tachyons are by definition superluminal. It takes more energy to put tachyons below the lightspeed threshold than to move normal matter above. The only ones to display the technology for a shoulder-mounted hyperdrive are the Mirai (theoretically, the Fate BDU could enter hyperspace though none has thus far). But could it shoot a hypermatter bolt? Due to the superluminal nature of hypermatter, it would appear to be a solid laser beam. Internal cycling in preparation for focusing and emitting the beam would account for the charge time and the nature of the bolt itself would incur high ammo expenditure. The only difference between hypermatter and tachyons being that tachyons are superluminal particles of energy, like photons but faster. Hypermatter has more substance and so would pack a much more substantial punch. Also, the Protectorate has been using hypermatter since before its inception as the whole galaxy uses hyperfusion. As I envisioned it, the Jedi Resistance has had to rely on conventional fusion for so long because of their isolation. Fusion can use just about any matter, especially since the Jedi Resistance has apparently very thoroughly developed the process. This would have the added benefit (from DL's perspective) of not really involving new technology, just the new materials available with the advent of galactic commerce thanks to the Jedi Resistance joining the KOTOR. Before they would never have considered weaponizing hypermatter because they simply had none available. Now, they can buy practically all they need through government connections so it stands to reason that MT would design something using this energy rich and newly readily available substance. Presumably, hypermatter is also not radioactive or unstable the way common fissile material typically is. This makes it an excellent weapon material.)

Name*: Adeptus Astartes Recon Troopers (AARC)

Race*: Genetically modified human

Affiliation*: K.O.T.O.R.

Rank*: Lieutenant

Sith Name(**) : N/A

Age*: N/A

Physical Description*: Without armor these warriors stand 8 feet tall. They have been modified to have reflexes faster then any human, with the help of computer implants. They also have two hearts, a second set of lungs, stronger bone structure, more muscle, and several points on their body that allow their armor to directly connect to their implants. All of these make the AARC a formidable soldier out of their armor.

History: With the Sith stronger then ever, Painbringer decided that it was time that he brought back the old warriors that had been killed in the disaster on that forgotten world. But instead of bringing them back as they were, he was going to make them into super soldiers. His knowledge of cloaning techniques and his own body allowed him, with the help of MT, to create a medical facility on the EH that could transform the ARC troopers into AARC troopers.

Master**: Ben Painbringer

Apprentice: N/A

Weapon(s)*: AARC Battle Rifle, AARC Battle Pistol, AARC Light Sword, Jedi Laser

Ship: N/A

Specialty*: Combat

Strengths*: Physical Strength, Stamina, Endurance, Iron Will, Training

Weaknesses*: No force powers

Other: Though the armor looks bulky from the outside, the powered armor was designed by Painbringer to allow the user complete motion, enhanced speed, enhanced perception, and enhanced strength through the use of the direct contact points and the armors own machine workings.

Name: AARC Battle Rifle

Type: Projectile

Caliber: 22mm APHE

Note: These guns have 3 weapons settings on them. Single, 3 round burst, and fully auto.

Description: These weapons have a magazine of 30 rounds. The rounds and gun are far too heavy for a regular man to handle that are specifically made to interface with the armor of the AARC so that it gives them increased accuracy and weapons data. When picked up by and AARC the hand sensors in both the gauntlet of the armor and in the handle of the weapon interact and instantly give the AARC active ammo count, current gun setting, current gun status, and a targeting reticule appears to show where the barrel of the gun is pointing.


Name: AARC Battle Pistol

Type: Projectile

Caliber: .50 cal APHE

Note: These weapons have only one fire mode, semi-auto.

Description: These weapons have a magazine of 10 rounds. The rounds and the gun are far too heavy for a regular man to carry or fire. The pistol just like the AARC Battle Rifle are designed to interface with the armor and give the user accurate and up to date data on the weapon.


Name: AARC Light Sword

Type: Melee

Caliber: N/A

Description: This weapon incorporates Painbringer’s knowledge of lighsabers and cortosis to create a sword that has two lightsabers creating an edge of the blade and cortosis sharpened to a blade inside the lightsabers. This combination of lightsaber and cortosis causes the sword to be very heavy, but in the AARC armor it is not noticeable and is able to fell any foe even if a normal lighsaber could not.


Name: AARC Powered Battle Armor

Type: Resistant to Ballistic, Energy, and Plasma weapons

Special Properties: The armor is made out of ship armor melted down and made into fine fibres. These fibres are then interweaved to create the overlapping plates of the armor. The underlayer of the armor is made out off a skin forming memory gel that is taken from the clone commando armor and modified to fit. It keeps the wearer cool while keeping the armor form fitting. The armor also connects to the ports in the AARC trooper’s skin, this allows the armor to show the user his own vital signs as well as allow the armor to augment the users speed, strength, perception, and reaction time. In the armor the AARC trooper stands 10 feet tall and can withstand hits from anything except large artillery and shipboard weapons. The armor weighs almost 2 tons and has magnetic points were the AARC trooper places his weapons. The armor was designed by Painbringer and put together by MT and his army of drones, the suit is powered by a small reactor in a back pack on the back of the suit. The technology to power the suit was engineered by MT using his knowledge of robots and technology.
