A/n: This one is inspired by Minato who remains my favorite character in Naruto.


Codename: Death's Mark

Ability Overview: "Death's Mark" is a supernatural ability wielded by Y/n, an enigmatic figure that walks the line between worlds. This power allows them to inscribe an arcane sigil upon a living being through physical contact. The sigil, invisible to those except for Y/n and those attuned to mystical energies, becomes a beacon for a series of potent and deadly capabilities.

Detailed Abilities:

Marking Touch: The initial application of Death's Mark requires direct skin-to-skin contact. Upon touch, Y/n channels a fragment of their essence into the target, leaving a mark only visible to beings with supernatural sight or those affected. The process of marking is often accompanied by a cold shiver running down the target's spine, a harbinger of the curse they now bear.

Blink Teleportation: Once the mark is placed, Y/n can instantaneously blink to the marked target's location or within a 10-meter radius, regardless of physical barriers. This ability operates with a near-silent whisper of displaced air, allowing for sudden ambushes or escapes. The mark serves as a homing beacon, pulling Y/n through the fabric of space directly to the afflicted individual or to a strategic point nearby.

Spiritual Weakening Strikes: Every successful strike delivered by Y/n to a marked target resonates with both physical force and spiritual corrosion. These attacks drain the target's life force, manifesting as growing fatigue, disorientation, and a dimming aura. Repeated hits can potentially lead to a complete spiritual atrophy, leaving the target's defenses against metaphysical threats dangerously low.

Conditional Power Boundaries: The teleportation ability is contingent on remaining within a 10-meter radius of the marked target. If Y/n strays beyond this range, the connection weakens and eventually severs, requiring a new marking to reestablish the teleportation tether.

Power Limitations and Challenges:

Marking Duration: The mark fades over time or when Y/n chooses to release it. The longer the mark exists, the more energy is required to maintain its presence, creating a strategic balance between power and endurance.

Physical Touch Requirement: The necessity of physical contact to place the mark is a significant limitation, requiring stealth or guile to approach wary targets.

Energy Drain: Each use of the blink teleportation and the additional effects tied to the mark (such as phasing strikes or ethereal chains) drains Y/n's energy, setting a finite limit on how often they can use this power before needing to rest.

Mental Focus: Concentration is key to maintaining the marks and controlling the precise timing and location of the blinks. Mental disruptions or intense emotions can interfere with Y/n's ability to effectively use their powers.


Codename: Reaper's Tool

Ability Overview: Reaper's Tool is an extension of the Death's Mark, allows Y/n to inscribe their essence onto an inanimate object, most effectively a weapon. This mark acts as a beacon, much like their original power, but with a focus on the utility of objects within the environment or the battle itself.

Detailed Abilities:

Object Inscription: Y/n can touch any object and leave an arcane sigil upon it, effectively marking it as their own. This mark is imperceptible to the ordinary eye but thrums with a low energy signature detectable by those sensitive to such forces.
