How long does it stay active once activated?
...it needs a length of time (# of posts) it will disrupt these abilities. I'm only supporting the idea of the custom if it's a temporary block to the Byakugan/sensor ability.
...good luck permanently hiding for a Mind's Eye of the Kagura if they want to find you though...

Cobra_X I feel that five hits to break them is too much... maybe 2 or 3? The thing is, that would be like saying two to three hits destroys a Banshee's Wail or or First Tsurugi. The weakness was added in because it was most likely going to be assumed I meant it to be invincible, which I wouldn't.. I can die the numbers down to two to three, though. sweatdrop The weakness was meant to be carried for five hits total through the RP, not just five hits in a particular fight.

Yeah, but you can just fix them... the other customs are different.
...a sword is built to clash with other swords. The Senbon created doesn't work if bent (which happens easily)
...Yours are gauntlets meant for defense. If I let your gauntlets be the be-all end all of your defense, allowing them to block any weapons damage, or energy slice, then they're too powerful.
Then there is the problem of not specifying the RANK of the attacks it can withstand. We need to effectively give your gloves an amount of Stamina which is decreased by the incoming attacks it deflects.

Then there is the problem of not specifying the RANK of the attacks it can withstand. We need to effectively give your gloves an amount of Stamina which is decreased by the incoming attacks it deflects. The idea was for them to be, at current, an experiment. They break when going up against something that relaying on cutting power that also use chakra, such as an Energy-Slice of equal rank, or a cutting fuuton jutsu. So at Genin, it would be equal to Genin. Naturally as he gains rank, he would want to upgrade the gauntlets, seeing as how their main functions are physical. In this way, the attacks required are of equal rank to Takashi. I plan for him, through RP, to upgrade the gauntlets, making them better as he gains in rank. There would be no added functions, just make them better equipped to handle cutting attacks of lower rank. The goal for the gauntlets was to be able to to head-to-head with another weapon without worrying about it cutting his hands off and not burning up on the third katon jutsu he used.

Well that's fine, but the gauntlets still have to have a set stamina. Attack of a lower rank aren't useless... sure maybe they could do less damage, but it can't be nothing.
How about this: we set a value for the gloves which determines how much damage they can take, this would essentially give the gloves Stamina.
So, we design them to resist cutting power of equal rank, let's say 5 hits.
Typical stamina cost of a Kenjutsu strike at that level is 3, so lets say the gloves have 15 stamina at Genin.
So at Genin: Gloves have 15 Stamina, and it takes damage = power of the technique used against (so a D-rank, costs 3 stamina, so it would lose 3 stamina), but any attack B-rank or above does double damage.
At Chuunin: Gloves have 25 Stamina, and it takes damage = power of the technique used against it, but any attack B-rank or above does double damage.
At Sp. Jounin: Gloves have 35 Stamina, and it takes damage = power of the technique used against it, but any attack A-rank or above does double damage.
etc...
The gloves also need an elemental weakness. so that ninjutsu/energy slices of that nature
---------------------------------------------
Upgrading the gloves between ranks requires 10 posts to increase durability... and fixing the gloves requires 2 posts to repair 5 stamina to the gloves.
Sound like an idea?

Sound like an idea? Yea, but one last question before I roll it with the system: No name attacks (Melee/thrown attacks that are just the opponent throwing a non-taijutsu based punch or a senbon throw without some sort of weapon technique attached), would those do the same amount of stam damage as taijutsu based attacks?

Some one like Havik who uses +2 to strength with [train] uses a normal punch and smashes into the gauntlets... How would that work with this system?

Non-name attacks, standard sword attacks or other medium weapons will count as 2 stamina...
Kunai, short weapons/projectiles, 1 stamina.
Senbon and other small projectiles, will so no damage.
----------------------------
@Havik, Taijutsu strikes... Take strength of striking opponent + taijutsu Attack rank -2 modifier (since punching metal will weaken the attack) = rank of stamina damage the gauntlet will take.

 Name of Weapon: Sonozaki Dragon Fangs Who Owns the Weapon: Takashi Shishigami Where it Was Found?/ Who Made it? The gloves were property of Takashi's previous mentor before he moved to Konoha. As a graduation gift, his mentor passed on her gloves to him. Range: As far as his fist can go. Weakness: Besides the material make-up, it has no special ability. Weapon Description: The gloves are black with metal studs covering the knuckles. A plate covers both hand backs, on which, along with the tip of the index fingers and on the base of the glove sleeves, the Sonozaki symbol is imprinted. The sleeves can button around the wrists for extra security. Special Properties/Abilites: The Sonozakis and the Shishigamis both fight with the same style, and both are very katon reliant. As such, the gloves were made with special properties in mind. First: The gloves are fireproof, and while they aren't near big enough to block out entire jutsu, they do provide some protection with his hands and they will never burn up from the wielder's own jutsu. Second: The gloves are made up of a special material created by the Sonozakis, dubbed Dragon Skin, that mixes the comfort of leather with the durability of steel. These gloves can go head to head with any sword or weapon. But that being said, jutsu or abilities with superior cutting power, such as a Weapon Master's Energy Slice, or any other cutting-based fuuton jutsu one rank above the wielder will damage the Dragon Fangs, breaking them after five hits. To repair them, Takashi must repair them in RP, either at his place of residence or by traveling to the Ryuujin Mountain and repairing them there. The material also allows his chakra to seep through the gloves, which allows him to perform katon jutsu while still maintaining the fireproof nature. Ze SystemSo at Genin: Gloves have 15 Stamina (+10 per rank), and it takes damage = power of the technique used against (so a D-rank, costs 3 stamina, so it would lose 3 stamina), but any attack B-rank or above does double damage. At Sp. Jounin+, A-rank or above deals double damage. Non-name attacks, standard sword attacks or other medium weapons count as 2 stamina. Kunai, short weapons/projectiles, 1 stamina. Senbon and other small projectiles do no damage. Taijutsu strikes take strength of striking opponent + taijutsu Attack rank -2 modifier Upgrading the gloves between ranks requires 10 posts to increase durability... and fixing the gloves requires 2 posts to repair 5 stamina to the gloves. The Upgrade is only allowed once per rank up. Rp Sample: Mion tossed Takashi a pair of gloves. "Go on. Try 'um out." As he caught them, and proceeded to strap them on, he noticed how comfortable they felt. "A bit conceited, eh? You got your tag all over them." Mion grinned. "Sonozaki originals.Dragon Skin material. We call 'um Dragon Fangs. They should help with your fire problems. Give it a shot." He nodded and understood. He snapped his fingers, creating a few sparks before finally engulfing his hand in fire. The glove didn't burn off. "Wicked." Mion beamed. "Dragon Skin is fire retardant, but still allows chakra to seep through the inside of the gloves outward. That doesn't mean it'll protect you from a full on Fireball and it doesn't mean that you still won't feel the heat from opponent attacks, but they could save your life in a pinch."
"Time for the next surprise." She unsheathed the katana strapped to her back. "Block this." Takashi's eyebrow raised. His grin vanished. "With what?" "Your hands." "You serious?" "Trust me." Takashi gulped, but complied and slid into a basic taijutsu defensive stance. There was no way this was going to work, but he never had any reason to doubt Mion before. She expertly dashed forward, and performed a basic horizontal slash. Takashi's hands rose as he heard a loud 'clank'. He slid back a good bit, but amazingly his could still feel his hands, which meant they were still there. The gloves protected him. "Dragon Skin isn't just made up of your basic leather components. It's mixed with ore found on your Shishigami's sacred mountain. Took forever to find, but well worth the effort. In simple terms: it's a leather material durable enough to block steel weapons and equal to lower-grade weapondry." Takashi dropped his hands, looking at his palms as the hands clinched and relaxed. "This is so cool." "Thought you might like them."(This work?)

Hey, I hear, the futurebirds; it's called spaceships...
Please Note: I have permission from Cobra to both post this here and have it not count to my number of custom weapons allowed. Thank you!
Name of Weapon: Tendril Thread
Who Owns the Weapon: Outou Hajime
Where it Was Found?/ Who Made it? Cory Lei
Range: Own body - healing function
Weakness: Originates from second heart. Destroy second heart, destroy the tendrils.
Weapon Description: The Tendrils are black, smooth, and coarse. They come from a second human heart, situated next to Outou's own. The heart beats and functions alongside the kunoichi's bodily needs. She feeds the heart with chakra every now and then for all of it's services, the heart also having its own Chakra System [Total/Maximum Points: 40 Chakra Points]. When healing Outou, the Stamina needed [Five Stamina Points] is paid by the user, while the Chakra needed for it [Five Chakra points] are paid by the Second heart's own Chakra System.
Special Properties/Abilites: The Tendril Threads are not part of Outou's clan or bloodline. The second heart was given to her when the original owner was dieing. The threads can only be used in keeping her body together, not for any offensive purpose. It will keep her alive, but she will still need medical attention for full recovery. Any lost limb will take two posts before she can regain basic control.
Rp Sample:
Outou's hands were resting on her rounded stomach, pink eyes closed, focusing on the twin bundles of life forming inside her. Twins; she was going to give the only man she loved two heirs. But with the village burning - with the whole of Kirigakure crumbling in ruin and flames around her, how could she? If Outou dies, the twins die too. If the new wife of Zane uses her clan's genjutsu, her mind might finally break, and the twins could die. If she even stresses too much it could be dangerous for the precious bundles to cope with. Pink eyes opened when an Akatsuki member landed in front of her, across from the pond, the water orange with reflecting the fires. The cloaked figure watched her, and the retired Chuunin watched back, hands still in place. Calm... Panic is counter-productive and dangerous. Just, remain peaceful, breath evenly, counting the time as she breathed in and out the ash of air around her. The Hajime wife spoke these things in her head, keeping both of her hearts steady.
The enemy leaped across the water and was now directly in front of her, within reaching distance, if he stretched out a hand. Faster than she could flinch, the Akatsuki had drawn his blade and cut her. She blinked, slowly looking down, finding her left arm slowly starting to bleed from a clean cut in the middle of her upper arm. The limb started to slide away from the cut - her left arm had been cut off. Tendrils shot from her wound, black, twisting angrily, before they stitched themselves through the area where the limb was severed, reattaching it to her body. Outou couldn't move the limb, and it ended up hanging uselessly at her side. Calm. Another cut, through her neck, though she didn't realise it until she felt tendrils working up through the flesh and a warm drip of blood had run down from the cut.
The Akatsuki chuckled, finding the situation funny. Then, as the male raised his blade to land a strike through her stomach, Outou felt herself smile. She wasn't trained like the Akatsuki, and wasn't even close to being as strong as him. But she had something that the attacker did not - the ability to feel protected. And she only felt protected when her husband was nearby. She whispered chilling goodbye, eager to see the man's blood spray and coat the pond, just before screams of fury filled the air. Outou collapsed to her knees as the pain of her injuries started to take over, an arm still curled protectively over her stomach.
...astronauts and all, let's trade all these types of things for wings.

Fruity:
Well the RP sample was nice and all... but it didn't show any aspect of your second heart or what having it does for you. Could you please incorporate the benefits of having the tendril threading heart in your system gives you in your sample?... or otherwise describe it more clearly in the description?
Thanks!

Yeah, of course. I'm sorry, I should have thought of that - I'm really not thinking at all with this flu and I guess I just wanted to get it posted so I could collapse somewhere, haha! The RP sample is completely redone now, and I hope this conveys the tendrils appropriately. If not, just, I don't know, blow a horn in my ear, or something!

Cobra_X How long does it stay active once activated?
...it needs a length of time (# of posts) it will disrupt these abilities. I'm only supporting the idea of the custom if it's a temporary block to the Byakugan/sensor ability.
...good luck permanently hiding for a Mind's Eye of the Kagura if they want to find you though... Um... how many notes are there from A sharp to G flat? xD that's how long it lasts. it goes lower every post from both sides. that's why they are like senbon and can be used handful after handful. although it does get taxing on the body. I'll look that up in a little while. Eh, it is just until I can sneak up and stabby rip stab stab them. ( if you don't get the reference, you do not love tacos )

( Yeaaaah, crappy method, but hey, he was like six and his brother got left in "The land where you can only see rice paddies." ) About twenty. It would only take about five to disrupt them, so it basically has four uses if i could B rank it four times.
