Due to the inherent dangers of space travel, especially when dealing with other species, the Lorath have developed a series of shield systems to protect their star ships, mecha, and vehicles. These shields span a range of capability and function and have been developed to stand up to the rigors of combat against the enemies of the Lorath.
Through the use of a series of high power magnetic field generators, the unit is able to rapidly create a magnetic bubble around itself which would be able to protect it from incoming attacks which are comprised of matter (Projectiles, plasma streams, particle beams). The magnetic shield unfortunately does not serve as strong enough protection to deflect raw-energy attacks. The magnetic shield systems of the unit are capable of producing a tightly confined magnetic field which can be sustained as a bubble, or as a directed 'wall'.
Through the use of venting plasma with a proper charge and utilizing electromagnetic fields, units with plasma shielding technology can construct a plasma based forcefield which can be utilized to deflect or block projectiles, energy beams, particle beams, and kinetic impacts.
Through the use of gravity manipulation technology such as graviton emitters, gravity field generators, and gravitic engine systems; a gravitational shield can be projected from the unit with the proper equipment for doing so. Gravity shield technology is capable of deflecting projectiles, manipulating air pressure and currents, and manipulating energy streams.
