Description:
This is a metal helm, chest piece, gauntlets, and boots. Each piece is mainly red, although decals are in yellow. A skin tight suit is worn beneath this set, and regulates temperature all over the body preventing sweating and degradation of the armor.

The Helm is largely red with two kunai like projections where the ears are located. Where the rings of the kunai would be, are two grates that cover the ears. On the forehead of the helm is a saw blade, that is sharper than any that one would commonly find. There is also a piece of metal with a respirator that covers Laxus's mouth. Leading from the nape of the neck, where the helm ends, is a yellow rubber hose. It leads to the back of the chest piece.

The chest piece is in three pieces, one for either shoulder, and one for the majority of the torso. This is primarily red as well, except for the underside of the shoulders. The underside of the shoulders appear more as dark blue- black. There is also a piece of under armor underneath the red chest piece, just before it leaves the larger chest. This allows for the simple storage of several units ( Up to 10 compacted units ) of Satetsu without the sand grinding against your chest. On the back of the chest piece, is a small cloth figure. It has five points, two on either side of a larger one that is long enough to drag the floor. The edges of this cloth are made of iron fiber, and as such are capable of being hardened into a blade.

The Gauntlets are more along the lines of arm protectors. They cover the forearm from damage. These are red as well. inside of the arm protectors is an iron fiber sleeve that is drawn up and attaches to the shoulder pieces. While this won't protect against most attacks, it can defend up to a D rank amount of damage from a weapon, or a fire attack. The hands are covered by a similar fabric, although this is much weaker. The base of the gloves are linked directly into the arm protector, making it impossible to remove once it is placed without removing the arm protector.

The Boots are nothing special aside from knee high boots made of metal with a pivot point for the ankle to lean Laxus forward or backward. Unlike the rest of the armor, the boots are Yellow with red trim around the soles, and the ankles.
Weakness:
Lightning Rod - The metal that the armor is made of is an excellent conductor, and makes it so that lightning jutsu are drawn to the armor within a foot from Laxus. This makes it decisively harder to dodge any raiton techniques.

Heated Combat - The metal is a largely conductive metal, making it so that prolonged exposure ( 3 posts around a C rank amount of fire, or being hit with an A rank Katon attack ) Heats the affected piece of armor to scalding proportions. It does however cool down quickly ( 3 posts of being away from the fire. )

Picture:

( If necessary, I'll make edits. I'd really like it for this to get approved at some point. I'll also make it tied into Laxus's Talent if need be. )

Yes, completely metal except the hose in the back.

No, seeing as he makes it essentially weightless with his Jiton ability.

Lightning jutsu would be damaging, I'l add that in under weaknesses. Prolonged exposure to fire would heat it up quickly, but it is made of a metal that cools quickly as well.

The armor takes about one post per piece of armor to equip if he does it without using his Jiton ability to hold the pieces in place.

He is actually going to create the armor himself. He'll be inspired by the creation of the technology for Shimogakure, and he'll begin to create a technology that only he himself is capable of using. ( Any other Jiton user could use it as well, but they wouldn't know it. )

I'll edit all of these points in. If you see anything else that needs editing, please feel free to tell me. ^.^

Metal that cools down quickly? Specifically what metal, because if its Iron or steel or something similar, the heated metal against your skin would be fatal before it cooled down.

Can you show me the research behind this? I'm actually quite intrigued. But you have to understand, even a few seconds of contact with red hot metal will seriously wound you. By "cooling down quickly", if it didn't cool down in ten seconds or less, you can guarantee death, especially if that helmet gets hit by the fire.

This is good research, but unfortunately, what I got from it is that the metal is able to withstand high heat without corroding or losing its structural integrity, not that the metal is able to resist becoming a higher temperature. An alloy like this would certainly prevent your armor from being weakened were it to, say, be superheated by a dragonfire jutsu and immediately cooled down with an ice/water jutsu, but unfortunately, it would not provide the fire protection you seek.

I was talking about the head and chest areas, of course. Also, keep in mind that the metal is encasing your arm. Its much more than a simple burn, its quite literally cooking you like a dutch oven, especially the way this armor seems to wrap around you.

If you are carrying a large chunk of metal for an extended time (for instance the whole time you are wearing a certain suit of armor) using ninja magic then there would be a ninja cost.

edit: Hinote got me to pay more attention to your post. Moving an object is manipulating it. Manipulation actually means MORE than moving. Gregar is already bringing up the elemental vulnerabilities so I'll keep my mouth shut on that for now.

Cobra's character is also S-rank.

If I remember correctly, she holds them as weights on her limbs. Maybe in her spear as well.

No, i don't know where it would be at, but I distinctly remember him talking about it back when Otogakure was still a village.

@ Somnis
Yes, but the fact she holds it as weightless still means that another practitioner could do the same.
