Thermal Cloak

Survival Gear – Rebels operating on unsettled worlds, in dangerous environments, or in the vacuum of space require special gear to protect them from environmental hazards. The following is a short list of some of the more common pieces of survival equipment used by Rebels in the field.

From Age of Rebellion

Thermal cloaks are versatile pieces of equipment that can be worn or used as a blanket and provide protection from extreme heat and extreme cold.

From Edge of the Empire

For those not used to extremes of heat or cold, thermal protection is a must. Thermal cloaks can be worn while on the move, or used as a blanket or makeshift tent. Depending on the technical access of the user, these could be simple but effective fabric blends or ultra-thin synthetic meshes than can collapse into a pocket. Most offer support for cold environments, with more clever models having reflective materials to also aid in areas of excessive heat.
