An idea I had for some time now.
You have seen the title, what about armor thats made out of Kanoka/Kanohi?
By that i mean so it has its abilities.
Example:
Armor made out of metalic protodermis AND a high purity Kanoka of regenaration could possibly be VERY strong.
An armor that regenerates the useres wounds in battle sounds like something very useful.
OR combine the materials used to make a Kiril and then some armor to make an armor that regenerates ITSELF.
I know its HIGHLY UNLIKELY
But still a cool idea to think about.
The possibilities here could be very broad and interesting.
What kind off Kanoka equipment would you like to see?
As to answer the other part of your question, Hau armor would probably be pretty good to have, and I like the question-asker’s idea of a leg-mounted levitation device.
It is possible and has even been done in canon before. Ancient had boots with Levitation Kanoka that allowed him to hover when he stomped on the ground.
The one thing to keep in mind is the quote that @CMO posted; the armour would have to be activated by physical contact, which would certainly make Hau-powered armour awkward to use.
There’s a Minecraft mod where you can make armour that teleports you away randomly if you’re in a dangerous location – I.e. drowning, burning in lava, suffocating in gravel. Perhaps teleport armour would function similarly?
Honestly, I was thinking you could pound your fist on your chest and it would activate. Although… I don’t know how you’d disable it. Would it be a one-hit-and-done type thing, or would there be a time limit before the shield expires?
