- | The Shade Field itself is a satellite network of specialised units equipped with advanced camouflage technology with a simple concept at their core, when switched on they hide away entire planets.

+ | While it would take a number of hours the entire network can be remotely reconfigured to generate an environmental shield around their target planet in the event of known solar storms or cosmic radiation clouds passing by. This environmental shield is not hard light and has no impact of physical objects greater than the size of a pebble, instead it aims to block up to 75% of any harmful rays, waves or particles from deep space before they reach the surface. | ||
+ | ==== Appearance ==== | ||
+ | Each satellite is roughly a meter cubed in size with a central housing containing the Ember core that connects to a larger shpere which houses the generator. Connected to the sphere on the opposite side is the shield engine, a more cylindrical housing connected to a wide angular dish used to project the barrier. Running parrallel to the body are four panels, while they have no official function in the operation of the field they provide slight protection against small debris to the units, mounted to the bottom of the ember core housing is the omni-directional thruster used to position the satellites when in orbit. | ||
+ | ==== Availability ==== | ||
+ | This item is manufactured and used exclusively by the Kingdom of Neshaten with its existence being hidden from it's own public as a last resort convlict avoidance method. A precise number was created and it shall never be exceeded with any units recquiring replacement being destroyed and recycled. | ||
