Forerunner personal armor

Template:Ratings Template:New Content All Forerunners wore personal body armor through most of their lives. The armor protected its user both physically and medically, granted them immunity to most diseases, and was one of the reasons for their long lifespans. In emergency situations, the armor could suspend its user until they were rescued, and even provide nourishment for a time.

Capabilities

Most if not all Forerunner body armor possessed N-barriers, lenses, and "omniscient guides" to protect the user from harm. Mature Forerunners could connect to the Domain through their armor. Forerunner armor suits were also equipped with ancillas, personal artificial intelligence constructs. Armor suits specifically designed for combat were known as Combat Skins.

Effects

Though the body armor provided the user with certain advantages, it also caused the user to lose sensitivity to the world around them. For example, when Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting decided to remove his body armor on Earth, he found himself exceedingly vulnerable; a simple touch from Chakas caused him to react.
