Armure Bastrale

The **Armure Bastrale** (生物 (せいぶつ) 鎧 (よろい) , *Seibutsu Yoroi*β) is worn by Era of Scarlet. It is an armor made off of an unnamed goddess' skeleton, blood, flesh, and nerves, giving it its fleshy look. The armor is also modified by ExRine and Hangman, giving it multiple abilities and techniques via mechanical implants. The armor was crafted by an ExRine Assimilator via the assimilation of said goddess. The goddess was used as a material to achieve the creation of this brazz. She was also used for that purpose by Hangman, who charged Era to hunt and exterminate the goddess to use as a component to her brazz.

## Appearance

The full appearance of the Armure Bastrale takes the looks of a normal-looking armor with the form of a medieval armor set. It also appears to be full-body, entirely covering Era's body when she wears the armor.

With a few pieces of bone, the armor in itself appears very fleshy and bloody and of a blood-colored shade. In addition, it seems to possess many veins and nerves scattered around the armor, as if it was alive or possibly sentient in its own. It's most prominent features are a brown, broken horn on its left eye and the number "21" written like a 4 on its forearms.

If the flesh, blood, bones, nerves, and veins were removed from the armor, its overall appearance would be similar to an animatronic-like last and inner layer: the exoskeleton.

## Synopsis

### History

The Armure Bastrale, originally and firstly planned and based to look similar to the armor hellion Skadi wears, named "Matryoshka". However, after being influenced by the death of a goddess and the landing of her deceased body in the area of the Pacific Sea from Era of Scarlet's hunt, ExRine and Hangman decided to use the body as the armor's main and principal materials, adding in a few mechanical implants to make it even more powerful. The goddess was originally used as a material to achieve the creation of this brazz. She was also used for that purpose by Hangman, who charged Era to hunt and exterminate the goddess to use as a component to her brazz.

## Abilities

### Capabilities

**Absolute Defense:** The Armure Bastrale possesses a defense close to absolute, or maybe even fully absolute. It is able to endure millions of strikes without getting a singular scratch or dent and is fully able to resist even Totsuka blades without a problem due to the goddess' durability being transferred to the armor.

**Inner Counter:** The Armure Bastrale is capable to creating its own magnetic field from inside and revert it to match the outside of the armor, generating a force able to redirect a possible hit to its user to the offensive individual without truly redirecting it. This is due to the magnetic and technological implants the armor was exposed to. This also exposes its user's opponents to their own strength, though unworking on Mora due to his own redirection.

### Techniques

**Automatic Activation:** The Armure Bastrale is able to automatically activate itself in cases of danger in order to protect its user from upcoming stealth attacks or overall upcoming blows.

**Automatic Discharge:** The Armure Bastrale possesses an ability that grants it with a possible discharge at any moment. The discharge was displayed to be external and coming out of the armor with a dose of volts 70-300 times the lethal amount. This is also extremely dangerous to use, due to the volts possibly entering the armor and causing damages to its user. However, due to Era's modified body, the possible enter of the volts within the armor would only shock her and cause faint, minor damages due to the armor's exoskeleton stopping most of the volts via reinforced, metal beams.

**Nuclear Implosion:** The Armure Bastrale was shown to be able of detonating itself into a massive, nuclear-sized explosion. However, the goddess' body around the armor is capable of blocking the atoms and radiation.

**Anti-Deject:** The Armure Bastrale is capable or rejecting anything that is bodily or cold steel that enters the armor other than its user themselves or the armor's own weapons or generated limbs. This is detected and judged by captors all over the armor and the direct flesh of the goddess.

**Pure Form:** The Armure Bastrale possesses an ability that grants it with even further strength and durability and endurance. It works off reinforcing itself by displacing the bone fragments to the spot of the blow again and again automatically via mechanical springs and the captors scattered all around the armor.

## Etymology

* The name "Armure Bastrale" is a technical mix of two languages: Italian and French.
	+ The word "bastrale (or basale)," in Italian, would stand for "basal."
		- In phylogenetics, basal is the direction of the base of a rooted phylogenetic tree or cladogram. The term may be more strictly applied only to nodes adjacent to the root, or more loosely applied to nodes regarded as being close to the root.
	+ The word "armure," in French, stands for "armor" in English.
* The kanji for the name of the Armure Bastrale, "生物 (せいぶつ) 鎧 (よろい) ", would translate to "biological armor" or "bio-armor." This is possibly due to it being composed of a goddess, making it hypothetically biological. The kanji 生物 (せいぶつ)  can also mean "creature," which would mean "creature armor."
