Panther, CDHS-22

CDHS-22 Panther Quadruped Hardsuit
 It wasn't until several of these Hardsuits [along with the other three models] were captured that the Star Nations were able to find out what happened to the bodies of the deceased military personnel that had been stolen from numerous military graveyards across the galaxy [most noticeably the Theban Clusters New Arlington].
Inside these Hardsuits the bodies were hardwired straight into the suits interfaces and electro-stimulation, Nano-technology and various types of cross-dimensional parasites keep the bodies functioning and under the control of the commanders of the Cross Dimensional Forces.
Later on capture of some of these suits however showed that even living personnel can be used as well however they are pretty much brainless zombies under the control of some unknown puppet master.
Later on after the Shadovaran were genetically engineered by the Black Council they were issued these power armors for use and after the Black Councils defeat and the Shadovaran created the Shadow Reaches they still continue to use these hard suits to this day.
The Panther is a quadrupedal design hard suit [the first and only of its kind]. The back of the armor opens up down the spine wide enough for the wearer to crouch and back their legs into the rear legs of the armor and then bend over and slide their arms into the forward legs with the final bit being the head placed inside the armored sensor dome at the front of the armor.
The Panther has three claws on each leg allowing it to easily grasp just about any terrain easily allowing to achieve speeds that even a two legged suit can’t reach.

The inner Thermo-Gel layer helps keep the wearer at a moderate temperate and is good up to 300 degrees Celsius and down to -125 degrees Celsius. This layer also helps to scrub excess CO2 from the suit and recycle it into oxygen; this helps to extend the air supply of the suit to approximately 120 hours. If the wearer is in a semi-oxygenated area or better the suit’s seals can be cracked and supply can be extended to 180 hours.

The suit has an internal removable 500 Terabyte hard drive [while linked to the AI it does not hold the AI’s operating systems and is mainly for removable storage purposes] the Hard Drive is linked to both the suit’s helmet cam and the suit’s external sound and recording equipment with speaker’s able to project and pick-up audio out to 250 meters.
After combat the unit is generally pulled from the suit and placed in a main computer system for the data to be downloaded and used for debriefings and virtual training sessions.

The Command and Recon models have a small Holographic Projection system built into the front and back of the upper chest and shoulder area of the suit which interacts fully with the IRThOp coating of the armor; these projectors give a +5 to hide but if weather conditions are extreme it drops to only +1.
These projectors are capable of emitting out to a meter radius and is able to create complicated projections such as moving foliage, animals, or moving water. With the aid of the speakers it can even add realistic sound.

All models of the CDHS-22 have a special coating that dampens Infra-Red and thermal signatures as well as the ability to blur and weaken visual imagery of the suit [even to the naked eye] this gives the suit -5 to look boost checks. If this electrically charged coating and the Holographic Projection system are used in conjunction the suit’s power cell endurance drops to about a fifth of what it would normally have.
