Lava Lizard Scale Armour

This is one of the rarest and most exotic armours available. It is composed of the scale of a lizard-like creature that lives in the molten mantel of Paragok VI. The armour is then cut with heavy industrial lasers, and molecularly welded to form a back-and-breast, greeves and vambraces. It s highly reflective of energy weapons, but noticeably less effective against impacts and cutting. It has a vibrant red-orange color, and is somewhat heavy compared to the modern plastoids. Two of the largest scales are more than enough to form a suit of this armour, allowing a single lava lizard to make several score of suits.

However, lava lizards are seen perhaps once a year, and hunting them is a very dangerous activity, with the addition of the beast and other hunters added to the environment. Despite this, hundreds of hunters flock to the planet every year, to be part of the team to take the first lizard since before the Clone Wars. A small number of similar suits have appeared on the market, leading some to believe that a similar species has been found elsewhere.
