Mjorn Armor Patterns

Mjorn Power Armor concept

**Mjorn Power Armour Patterns** are those personalised power armour designed and manufactued by the Tech-Priests of the Forge World of Mjorn. These patterns are utilised by the various military forces of the Imperium of Man.

Power Armour is an advanced form of powered combat armour, Each suit possesses a full suite of life-support functions for operation in hostile environments, an automated medicae system to provide some level of first aid to a wounded wearer and a highly advanced and fully integrated tactical targeting and threat analysis system known as Auto-senses.

The suit would be heavy and cumbersome to wear but for the electrically-motivated fibre bundles within the armour that replicates the wearer's movement and enhances his strength beyond its already considerable superhuman baseline (for Space Marines). Whilst Power Armour is most commonly associated with the Space Marines of the Adeptus Astartes, the Sisters of Battle and many Inquisitors also use powered armour of one sort or another.

Typically, however, these armours may not contain the same strength-enhancing properties or life-support functions of Space Marine Power Armour, nor do they always provide the same level of protection. Some high-ranking members of the Adeptus Mechanicus, the Machine Cult, use Power Armour. Enginseers of the Astra Militarum use it to protect them from enemy fire as they tend to the Machine Spirits of the Imperial Guard's vehicles.

Mjorn with it's specialties in genetics and electromagnetism has made strides in improving or adapting technologies to enhance or create patterns of Power Armor for use by their Explorator teams and allied Inquisition.

The emphasis on additional layers suggests a priority on augmenting protection, even if it comes at the expense of some mobility.

#### Inanis Pattern Flak Armor

#### Ishtar Pattern Flak Armor

A light and relatively simple form of body armour. Used as standard issue body armour, many layers of ablative and impact absorbent material go into making each suit, enough to deflect or negate most low-level attacks such as small arms, shrapnel, and proximity blasts. Cameleoline fabric is incorporated into the outermost layer of Ishtar Rangers' fatigues to enhance their ability to conceal themselves. Mjorn produces the necessary fabric and technologies to integrate the Cameleoline with general STC Flak Pattern Armors making the Ishtar Pattern somewhat unique for their regiments.

#### Suaineach Flak Healweave

The Flak chest and back plates provide essential protection against low-level attacks, while still enabling the freedom of movement crucial for administering aid. The arms and legs feature a unique blend of Flak materials, offering a balance between durability and agility.

Distinctive medic's armbands are integrated into the armor, showcasing the Suaineach's vital role on the frontlines.

This configuration ensures basic protection for these revered individuals. The Tiger Pride Auxillia, known for their auxiliary role, don an enlarged Flak armor pattern that incorporates a Grenade Discharger, emphasizing both defensive capabilities and offensive potential. In contrast, the Cheetah Pride opts for specialized Flak weave Fatigues instead of bulkier armor, prioritizing agility and ease of movement in alignment with their distinct mission set.
