Zipdash/Equipment

Name: Rig Mk2 Hermes

Created By: Zipdash

Created For: Zipdash

Physical Description:

With the new Elysian Steel exterior, the Rig has a gold coloration that is accented by a darker gunmetal color. The "Hermes" model as it's known is smaller than the original Rig, coming in at 6'6 rather than 7'0, and has a more elegant design, with gentle curves and elegant swoops designed for minimum drag. The LEDs from the original design are still in place, but are placed to make the suit appear less menacing than the original, giving it more of a divine glow.

Functions & Abilities:

Hermes is much lighter and better-designed than the Rig 1.0, allowing it to achieve speeds of up to 200 mph. It gains speed fast, reaching its top speed in under six seconds. The new Hermes armor is capable of carrying three Augmentation Cores that affect how the armor works, as well as four standard cores that have powered effects. When one of the standard cores is activated, the armor enters a sort of Breaker state where it coats itself in the effect of the core.

The armor can swap from one breaker state straight to another. In any state, it is still capable of using the Augmentation Cores.

The Hermes now acts as an exosuit, providing power and stability to the wearer’s movements, allowing even someone fully paralyzed to walk and move as normal. It also has a neural-link headpiece that allows the wearer to control the suit with thoughts rather than motions.

Duration/Shelf life:

Gets weekly maintenance, but doesn't need much outside of after-battle repair.

Name: Inertial Shift Augmentation Core

Created By: Zipdash

Created For: Zipdash

Physical Description:

Baseball-sized steel sphere with red LEDs on the surface

Functions & Abilities:

While slotted into one of the three core slots, the core allows the Hermes model to change inertia instantly, literally stopping or turning on a dime, without the suit or its wearer being torn apart by insane G-forces. Conveniently, this also helps absorb physical blows to the armor.
