Competition: Loadout to Impress: It's Not a Phase, Master

Finished
Loadout to Impress: It's Not a Phase, Master

You are a moody Acolyte, and nobody understands your pain. Your Master just told you to clean the meditation chambers, but you would much rather write bleak poetry and listen to the latest Bacta Tank Confessional holo-record. It is time to express your inner darkness through your wardrobe and gear.

The Challenge

Build a complete character loadout that perfectly captures the "It's Not a Phase, Master" aesthetic using item prototypes. We are looking for heavy black clothing, dramatic capes, highly impractical but emotionally resonant accessories, and weapons that look as brooding as you feel. But who are we to tell you how to express yourself? You do you.

The Budget

You have exactly 15,000 credits to spend.

The Rules

  • Submit a list of links to the specific item prototypes you have chosen for your loadout, specifying which slot they are to occupy (armor, weapon, equipment, etc.).
  • If an item supports aspects or upgrades, adding them is allowed (and recommended!). However, please only use the default options and not custom ones.
  • Optionally, provide a brief description of your overall loadout and any specific inclusions in it that you want to highlight or provide context for. (Maximum 100 words. This is not a fiction competition).
  • You do not need to own or be eligible to actually purchase these items.
  • Items with zero cost (such as society items and awards) are strictly prohibited.
  • Going over the credit budget will not disqualify you, but will count against your final score (the larger the budget blowout, the more it will harm your potential placement!).

The Grading Criteria

Submissions will be ranked based on:

  • Adherence to the "It's Not a Phase, Master" theme.
  • Clever inclusions (items that might not seem to meet the theme at first glance but absolutely fit when justified).
  • The completeness of the loadout.
  • There will be no ties (of the placement variety, you're welcome to include a neck-tie if you can find an item prototype for one!).
