Byakugan
Your innate combat instincts allow you perceive all your foes.
Benefit: 1/encounter, you gain blindsight out to thirty feet for one round/3 character levels. The length increases by one round for every other feat with Byakugan as a prerequisite. Attack rolls against targets seen within this range gain a +2 competence bonus for the duration. You cannot activate this ability while flat-footed, and while it is active you cannot be flanked. This ability can only be used when wearing light or no armor.
Hakke Rokojuu Yonsho:
Your Byakugan perception allows you to make a deadly combo attack.
Prerequisites: Byakugan, Improved Unarmed Strike, BAB +8
Benefit: While Byakugan is active and unarmed, you may forgo your +2 to attack gained from Byakugan to launch an attack. You provoke an attack of opportunity when starting this attack. As a full-round action, you make a single attack that always deals two damage. When this is over, your opponent can make a reflex save equal to 10+your level. If the opponent fails this save, you may make another attack in the same round that deals another two points of damage. You may repeat this pattern up to six times, increasing the damage dealt each time. The first two attacks deal two damage apiece but for each attack after that, the damage doubles until it becomes thirty-two at the final iteration, and increasing the reflex save to escape by two for each attack after the first. If your target dies, and there is another target in reach, you may move the next attack to that target, though the second target get a +5 bonus to their reflex save for this attack. You still have to succeed each attack roll, and damage reduction still applies. If you have less than 10 HD, you become exhausted after using this ability. If you have less than 12 HD, you become fatigued. This attack cannot be used against creatures with no discernible anatomy, or that are immune to damage from sneak attacks and critical hits. This ability can only be used when wearing light or no armor.
Hakessou Kaiten:
Your byakugan allows you to defend yourself against incoming attacks.
Prerequisites: Byakugan, Improved Unarmed Strike, BAB +4
Benefit: You may deflect incoming missiles as the Deflect Arrows feat would allow, an infinite number of times for as long as your Byakugan is active. If you have less than eight HD, you are fatigued after using this ability. This ability can only be used when wearing light or no armor.
Gentle Fist:
You can make special attacks with your fists.
Prerequisite: Byakugan, Improved unarmed strike, BAB +6
Benefit: While Byakugan is active, your unarmed strike is treated as having the brilliant energy weapon effect. This ability can only be used when wearing light or no armor.
Shugohakke Rokojuu Yonsho:
You can use your body's energy to deflect attacks more efficiently
Prerequisite: Byakugan, Hakessou Kaiten, BAB +8
Benefit: You can take a full defense action while Byakugan is active, and gain a +15 competence bonus to AC. If you have less that 10 HD, you are exhausted after using this ability. If you have less than 12 HD, you are fatigued. This ability can only be used when wearing light or no armor.

Anyone familiar with Naruto knows these powers. I actually started making these an hour ago, when I saw a Neji AMV on youtube. I found all the names in AMVs, too, and found three or four favorite-worthy songs in the process, so I can't complain. Tell me what you think! Did I nerf too hard? Are the mechanics fair? Do they build together nicely?
Thinking on it, I've decided Neji is a 15th level monk, and hinata is a level 11 monk, with four levels in adorable.:smallbiggrin:
I'm such a nerd, I've tesseracted my nerdiness, folding it back on itself through time and space until I fit all things within the breadth of my nerd-dom.
