Shield breaker? I'm afraid not, this is simply a aesthetic feature. That's the idea behind it! Many NPC Overhaul type mods change Brejik and Gadon by swapping their Armor, but these two characters both appeared in the old Kotor comics wearing their vanilla armor with their Kotor appearances. I feel by giving Brejik a cybernetic arm would work as it'd both make Brejik unique from all the other antagonists in the game and it would be consistent with the Legends timeline... Brejik's last appearance in the comics was 3962 BBY, we can assume he lost his arm between then and 3956 BBY when Kotor takes place. Though if players agree with the idea that the Repulsor Arm is indeed Bao-Dur's own invention, players are more than welcomed to skip over this mod. And there's where a mod-conflict would arise, Kandon Ark is modified in Leilukin's KotOR 1 Twi'lek Male NPC Diversity mod. As I said in the post above, I'm very limited by assets available to me and NPCs that won't conflict with other popular mods... hence why only Brejik has the arm.

Not sure I'm really a fan of grafting it onto important NPCs. If you want to give people cybernetics, you'd be better off porting arms and legs from TOR so they are a bit more unique.

View File Brejik's New Repulsor Arm Brejik's New Repulsor Arm A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic Author: N-DReW25 1.0.0 Release Date: 24.06.2023 Installation: Please install the K1 Community Patch before this mod! Once you're ready to install this mod simply click on this mod's INSTALL.exe, click install, sit back and watch the TSLPatcher do its magic. Description: One night, I was browsing through the game files of K2 to see what assets could be ported over to K1... then I found the files for Bao-Dur and an idea popped in my head: could I port Bao-Dur's Repulsor Arm for other NPCs? After careful consideration, I decided Brejik was one of the only NPCs in K1 that I could replace without causing a conflict with other mods. As a character, Brejik is always said to be a tough and formidable leader of the Black Vulkar Swoop Gang... though his reputation is always reflected through dialogue of other characters. Since Brejik only has a single encounter in the game, we can only use our imaginations as to how Brejik gained this reputation. But with this mod installed, Brejik will be given Bao-Dur's body model for the Military Suit armor. That means Brejik's entire body will now be physically buff, making his Military Suit larger and more muscular than his vanilla model. These muscular details might be easy to miss, though what's not easy to miss is the elephant in the room... the Repulsor Arm itself! This Repulsor Arm is entirely an aesthetic feature, Brejik will NOT power punch your player and knock out their energy shields... the arm simply acts as a symbolic testament to Brejik's character, between the year 3962 BBY (when Brejik last appeared in the Kotor comics) and 3956 BBY (when Kotor takes place) we can assume he lost his arm at some point during his career as a Swoop Gangster, similar to how Gadon Thek lost his eyes in the vanilla game. If you are someone who believes the Repulsor Arm is something only Bao-Dur has, you are welcome to not install this mod.

good to know. I do enjoy your content, N-Drew. Just curious, other than appearances, what other content are you planning for Heart of Beskar?

Now I know I just leaked the "Heart of Beskar" mod, though that mod is still in active development... the mod I'm about to leak now is almost ready! Here's a bit of backstory on how this mod came to be! So one night I was brain storming ways I can create unique NPCs for future mods for this series, I then dug through TSLs game files to see what assets I could use... then I saw Bao-Dur's files and a lightbulb activated in my head! "YES!" I said out loud... I'm going to port Bao-Dur's Repulsor Arm to K1, but then it hit me, I only have Bao-Dur's clothing, the combat suit, heavy combat suit, military suit and light battle armor models with the Repulsor Arm and since Bao-Dur is a male that means no females with Repulsor Arms. Even if DarthParametrics DarthParametrics Bao-Dur arm modder's resource I'm still very, VERY limited to what NPCs I can give Repulsor Arms to. I have to be consistent with the lore of Kotor and I have to avoid mod conflicts, so I can't pick an NPC like Gerlon Two-Fingers as NPCs refer to him having a paralyzed hand... not a cybernetic hand. I can't give Davik a Repulsor Arm, in the vanilla game I could as he only wears his pink battle suit... though in my own NPC Diversity Pack he wears civillian clothing in his first appearance and in Onderon Fashion he instead wears Onderon robes, I don't have the knowledge to add the Repulsor Arm to those NPC models and this problem would only get worse for other peoples mods who add unique appearances to the game. In the end, I was left with 4 canidates: Deadeye Duncan, J'ane Khan, Gadon and Brejik. Deadeye Duncan: At first, this seemed like a good idea... then I realized all the Taris citizens who mock Duncan for his inflated ego and his clumsy combat skills will now instead be mocking an elderly disabled person who clearly isn't fit to participate in the arena... and Ajuur has set this disabled person for 54 duels, that he lost 54 times, and the other duelist happily kicked his ass every single time. And then I remembered you met Duncan on Manaan in cut content and since he wears commoner clothing, this makes his Repulsor Arm impossible (for me at least). J'ane Khan: He's the GenoHaradan Assassin in the Durasteel Battle Armor who fights alongside Hulas on Tatooine. He's simply a background character who you fight, the problem with J'ane is that if I, or any other modder, decide to change his appearance that would quickly make this mod incompatible with those other mods. Gadon: Gadon already had his eyes blown out in an off-screen swoop crash, it'd be cruel for this mod to also slice his arm off! Brejik: In the end, it turns out Brejik was the PERFECT NPC to give a Repulsor Arm to... and so "Brejik's New Repulsor Arm" was born! When can I download this mod?
