History
In 2324, Echoni being sent on operations from Alpha Concourse were often given 'off the shelf' equipment or gear that was provided from other services like the Hawking gendarmerie. The ongoing Echoni Project would continue to incur additional expenses for the upkeep of Echonis that were produced, as well as an increasing inventory of older Echoni that were less capable than their more recent versions. To help address this, SEER would look to improve their older Echoni using better equipment. This would lead to their first encounter suit being designed in 2325.
As SEER continued to try and monitize its operations, it would start producing the encounter suits for other groups and general use with some success.

Usage
The Encounter Suit was intended to be a comfortable to wear, long term, outfit to support operations in rough but still terestrial environments like the forested areas of Hawking.It is intended to protect Echoni from injured knees or heads when moving in rough terrain, provide a level of thermal invisibility, and help manage body heat.
Though it provides some protection against slashing weapons, it is not intended for direct combat and won't stop projectile weapons.
