*Colours: The main colour of [[White Scars]]' power armor is ivory white. This is paired with red chevron patterns whose size and location is chosen by the wearer. {{Fn|2b}}
*Banding: The banding on the armor is normally gold, bronze, or sometimes enamelled red and occasionally appliqué plates of hammered bronze or copper. {{Fn|2b}}
*Insignia: The tactical designations that the white scars use are Chorgian Chogorian versions of imperial insignia. The white scars [[White Scars]] can also wear the symbol of their brotherhood.
