History

In YE 40 Galactic Horizon decided to make a product designed to be worn underneath the many suits of power armor that required their wearers to all but strip down before entering – the item of clothing that came out at the end of their brainstorm was a bodysuit that provided padding to further protect the user inside their suit without restricting movement or bulking them out.

Thus the PAL was born, a cheesy skin-tight suit with the added bonus of providing protection to its wearer.

Design

The PAL is a black polymer bodysuit with grey panelling on the sides, a smaller removable version of the the Galactic Horizon logo sits on the left breast with more grey panelling on the neck. The material it is made of resembles a soft rubber as it hugs the wearer’s body – with a highly flexible and comfortable zipper hidden behind a vertical flap along the front of the suit.

There is a thin layer of cushioning gel in the core of the suit, this acts as a pressure suit during high-g maneuvers and serves to regulate the wearer’s temperature as well as shielding them from the radiation of space – the suit has included boots and gloves incorporated into it and may function as a space suit if supplemented with a suitable helmet and peripherals.

The suit comes default with grey paneling but buyers who order in bulk may choose another color in its place.

Usage

The wearer undoes the seam at the front of the suit and steps into legs of the suit, they then pull into the sleeves and shrug the suit over their shoulders before closing the seam, simply reverse the process to take the suit off. The second-skin-like nature of the suit means that wearers are limited to wearing only slim undergarments or nothing beneath it – yet most other clothing can be worn over the suit.
