black hand (revamp)

[luneth]

Revamping this due to all of the site's changes since its creation.

Here's the original.

Shikami-Te (Hand Of Ankou)
Rank: S
Type: Primary / Melee
Special: While dormant, the razor-sharp, prickly metals lining the knuckles, fingertips, and palm act to stack C-ranked damage onto any physical strike made by the right hand. In need of repair if directly struck by one S-ranked technique. While capable of harnessing nearly any release, it is simply a medium, restricted by its wielder's specific releases. See below for more!

• Due to its nature, the expending of a single 'High' amount of chakra ('Mid' Upkeep) will raise the weapon from its dormant state, then acting as a medium for most types of chakra (no Kekkai Touta), harnessing them, in turn stacking B-ranked elemental damage (lightning, sound vibration, etc.) onto any physical strike made by the right hand (applies to swords as well).
  
  
• As a catalyst and extreme impetus for chakra, feeding the gauntlet a single 'High' amount ('Mid' Upkeep) will give it a push, supplying the weapon with energy, and consequently unleashing its full potential. Depending upon the user's own releases, the gauntlet carries the ability to increase their offensive power by one tier (A-rank max.), and increase range by five meters.
  
  
• Following a 'High' consumption ('Mid' Upkeep), a wide, blade-like beam of pure chakra is capable of being extended out from the gauntlet's four fingertips when elongated (i.e. knife hand/ karate chop form), its maximum length measuring two meters in total, with a speed of two meters per second. The beam is easily capable of piercing through steel and most armors (non-relic).

[/li][/ul]Description: Appearing to be the combination of both a gauntlet and sap glove, the black material primarily composing this arcane weapon is unknown, though has proven to be extremely responsive when exposed to chakra, and appears/feels to be both durable and flexible. While the specific type is unknown, it is obvious that some kind of metal, its color ranging from deep black to dark grey, lines the palm area, each individual fingertip, and knuckle region in a jagged, barbed like fashion, these spiked, prickly metals protuding anywhere from a quarter inch to half inch in length, while extremely thin in width. It bears several odd markings, though the most prominent and identifiable being a Jashinistic symbol located on its the front. Fitting tightly along the hand's contours, it would seem to be an ordinary black glove from afar, giving it the power of subtlety.
Cost: Obtained via quest. Can't be sold.[/justify][/quote]

And the updated version.

Anäkou Te (Our Lord's Hand)
Rank: S
Type: Primary / Melee
Special: While capable of augmenting nearly any release, it is simply a medium, restricted by its wielder's specific releases. See below for more!

• As a catalyst and extreme impetus for chakra, feeding the gauntlet a single 'Mid' amount will give it a push, supplying the weapon with initiative, and consequently unleashing its full potential. Due to its nature, any single jutsu used in conjunction with the hand in its charged state will have its area of effect increased by a max of 1 meter in each direction. Once complete, the hand must be recharged.
  
  
• Focusing the pure potency of the weapon into a more tangible form, a 'High' consumption ('Mid' Upkeep) will extend a straight, extremely thin, blade-like beam of concentrated chakra out from the gauntlet's four fingertips when elongated (i.e. knife hand/nukite form), its maximum length measuring 2 meters in total, while emitted at high speeds. The beam's preternatural, unearthly sharp edges are easily capable of piercing through steel and most armors (non-relic).

While the specific type is unknown, it is obvious that some kind of obsidian, otherworldly metal, its color ranging from deep to dull black, lines each individual fingertip, these seemingly weightless, razor sharp metals protruding approximately one half-inch in length, while extremely thin in width. It bears several odd markings, though the most prominent and identifiable being a Jashinistic symbol located on its the front. Fitting tightly along the hand's contours, it would seem to be an ordinary black glove from afar, giving it the power of subtlety.
Cost: N/A.

I actually like this and believe it to be relatively balanced. In fact, in my opinion, it's a good staple for how Custom Special Weapons should be made. Simplistic and intriguing.

The one qualm may be it's ability to augment all (any release known to user) in the way explained, but if no one else really is concerned (since the augmentation is really not that crazy) it should work fine. Additionally, since it's a costless event-based weapon I suppose it's okay too.

1 / 2 acceptance, unless otherwise specified.

I suppose that a 1-meter buff really isn't that crazy, all things considered. That it has a chakra-cost behind it makes it more logical.
