>>1783>Did astra put it on me already?Yes, she said it did the job of merging with your anchor, which was the goal.
>I could talk more on the sword but i guess i should say theres a certain decisiveness to it (the blade itself).The sword ended up being the most important aspect of the suit, because of what it represents. I had help from several others in understanding what it means, it's a difficult symbolism relating to you personally.
>anything about the suit i should know? (capabilties)The way it had to be made was in the form of a "self executable" package, I was unable to create a suit which can be worn by anyone else. That's why Astra had to come along and install it for you. The suit didn't exist before it was worn by you personally. A bit like it was a program code which interacts with the person and the suit is created through a one way process which makes it impossible for anyone else to wear it or reverse engineer the original code. Maybe it can be compared to how no one knows what is being stored in a neural network's deeper layers, and even if they were to look at the information there is no way to make sense of it.
The sword is for you to figure out, it represents you. Aside from that the suit has a heavy focus on armour, it wasn't possible to combine the sword with shifting defense at all, so instead I devised a dimension distortion shield outside of it as an extra layer. It will look like standing immobile but the attacker is still not hitting you. You may think of it theoretically as having a high "evade" stat in a game, which just causes them to miss, with no visible effort on your part. It's a heavy armour so levitation or flying will be slow, it's generally bulky, but should have other up sides available to you once you start using it, it simply represents what your strong sides are, while the weaknesses are mitigated as far as possible.
