Description: The cursed blade of Oketsu himself. It is said to be a blade forged from the very hate in Oketsu's heart. The sword measures 3 1/2 feet in length. The sword is made of a black steel folded over several times. The sword resembles a normal katana, except for the dark coloring. It's sheath is a deep black also. Along the upper edge, near the hilt, are two very faint small kanji carved in white. They say "Meiki" and "Akasabure Genome" or "Remember Akasabure Genome".

No idea how much, really high though. Need it re-approved and priced a la new rules.

I hate this weapon. $5,000 if you must have it.

[Ravage Nocturne]

I thought we were all in agreement that damage equal to Health loss was NOT something we wanted on NA? The damage is absurd. If you have even 500 Health, and lose 200, that's 200 freakin' damage for no reason. There's not even justification for doing more damage with less energy (Health). It simply does not make sense.

Death's Curse: The weapon takes a minimum of 50 stamina per attack no matter what.

Mhm. So, the huge curse is that it takes a little more stamina? Oketsu must have been a pansy. This feels tacked on, as if it only exists so you can say that it's cursed. Not that it really matters.

Attribute Name: Ninjutsu Sharpening

Effect: The user applied thier Ninjutsu mod to the weapon attack instead of taijutsu. They also use chakra instead of stamina for attacks with the weapon. Still blocked by defensive stat, though it uses Ninjutsu offensively.

Now, let's assume the wielder has 900 Ninjutsu and 800 Chakra.

900 Ninjutsu = +225 Damage

Level 20 Medium = 40 Damage

225 + 40 = 265 Damage

All right, not incredibly ludicrous so far.

Death's Power: Can destroy any weapon that is a lower level than it.

Ummm. So, basically...now we totally intimidate people into taking the Indestructible attribute? Sure? Doesn't really bother me. I don't see why this is necessary, but all right.

Death's Blessing: Does additional damage = to amount of life lost.

...

Can there ever be a correct price for being able to gain damage output on a 1:1 ratio? I think not.

Take those assumed stats, and factor in 200 damage.

265 + 200 Damage = 465 Damage

And let's do a comparison.

50 Chakra = 465 Damage.

Divide by 5.

10 - 93.

So, it's basically 10 Chakra per a 93 damage once you've suffered 200 damage. Sure, this isn't taking the multi-hit rule into account. But then again...

They also use chakra instead of stamina for attacks with the weapon.

I can only hope that 'attacks' doesn't include techniques.

woops, sorry guys, that was the 4.0 version. This is the new version that I should have posted. Copy pasted off the wrong damn character sheet. Look now.

[Guest Zionward]

All right. I may be jumping the gun here, but I see nothing immediately wrong with this updated version. Basically, the Death's Blessing really only punishes them from trying to deal too much damage at once. And now the weapon-breaking attribute has an actual effect, as well.

Well, fine with me; though it means nothing.

[Mokujin]

Death's Blessing and Death's Power: About $5000 total...

Death's Curse: I'd say -$250, abiding by stat-money rules....

So 4750+ Everything else= $6430

I'll -stab- that price...
