This is a work that was inspired by the book "Enders Game" from Orson Cott Card. It is about a intellectually giftet boy, who has to go through a inhuman military training. The instructors idea is, to create the perfect strategist. For this, they have created the "battle room" in which Ender has to fight with his team against another team of children (all intellectually gifted). The battleroom has no gravity. The armor of the children is not for protection but to simulate strikes by the simulatin-handguns, so that the strucked Arm or leg is "frozen".

But I didn´t modelled this armor thinking about technical aspects but thinking about the isolation and pressure, Ender feels during this 4 years of inhuman military training-system. And it also symbolizes the emotional armor, Ender build up.
Above all Ender is described as a person, that emanates an invincible authority, anyway he is a child.
