My first new hatsu in over a month; it took a very long time to write, so please for the love of god don't just ignore it. It does seem over powered at a glance, so if your finding it hard to imagine a character in hunter x hunter being this powerful, try this; imagine their was a physical manifestation of the devil in hunter x hunter. Now imagine that the devil could use Nen. Have you got that image in your head? Good, because this is the devils hatsu:

Name:Seven Sins

Nen Type: Specialization

Description: The user is able to enhance different aspects of themselves after activating this hatsu, the aspects enhanced depending on the strongest emotion the user is feeling at the time. The hatsu can be activated in one of two ways; either intentionally or automatically. Activating the hatsu intentionally will simply amplify the strongest emotion felt by the user at the time; activating it intentionally will not make the user as powerful as they would be if it were activated automatically, but it would give the user more control over themself. The hatsu will be activated automatically if one of the users emotions becomes to powerful and out of control; think of it like Gon's transformation. Activating the hatsu automatically will make the user much more powerful but will give them little to no control. After the hatsu has been activated, all other emotions other than the dominant one will be supressed while the former is incrreased to an extremely high level. Because of the nature of this hatsu, I will simply list the 7 sins and their effects on the user: Wrath: If the users dominant emotion is anger/rage, Wrath shall activate. While in the Wrath state, the users physical strength and speed will increase immensly, the level of which will depend on the amount of anger held by the user. The user will be most powerful(and dangerous) while facing the object of their Wrath, of which they will abandon all sense of self preservation in order to attack and kill said object. The user will also find it extremely difficult to differentiate between friend and foe, making them likely to attack anyone/anything around them regardless of their allience to the user.

Gluttony: The second sin, this sin is activated through extreme gluttonous thoughts or desires. While in the Gluttony state, the user will become overwhelmed with the desire to devour any organic material surrounding them; humans included. The user will become cannibalistic, and should they devour more than their stomach can physically hold the excess material will be converted into aura for the user to do with as they please.

Greed: N/A

Lust: The fourth sin overwhelms the user with intense lust and sexual desire. When activated intentionally the user emits a field of Nen which makes them more sexually appealing to those around them, as well as making the user more sexually aroused. It will however be activated automatically if the user experiences either intense lust, sexual frustration, or a combination of the two. As this would most likely happen if the user were extremely attracted to a certain individual(though this may not always be the case) and recieved no sexual gratification from said individual, they would persue this person relentlessly and attempt to perform sexual actions with them regardless of consent. If this were in fact the cause for automatic activation, then the user would be extremely dangerous to that person in particular while being less so to others around them, making them extremely effective in subduing an opponent in single combat; and I do use the word "combat" very loosely. The reality is much more... Morbid, shall we say.

Sloth: While in the Sloth state the user will become slothful to the point of vegetation if activated automatically. However, being in the sloth state would cause the user to heal wounds and replenish aura in a startlingly fast rate, unfathomably faster than simply being in a state of Zetsu.

Envy: If the user were to feel extreme jelousy towards a specific person/group of people then Envy would activate. In The Divine Comedy, envy is described as "Love of one's own good perverted to a desire to deprie other men of theirs", and this form of the hatsu encompasses this. If the user is facing an opponent significantly more powerful than them, one of two things will happen. Either their own power will increase to equal or surpass their opponents, or the opponents power will be forcfully reduced to match or be inferior to the users. In the former case, aura can be sapped from both the opponent and other life sources to enter the user, and in the latter case the aura taken from the opponent is simply dispersed and not used.

Pride: The most powerful of the Sins, when in the pride state, the users power will increase depending on how powerful they themselves believe themself to be. In short, underestimating your opponent is a good thing in this case, as it would make your own power increase exponentially. However, their extreme hubristic thoughts would cause them tio think themselves indestructible, causing them tto rush into danger without a second thought.

Limitations:

The limitations for this hatsu are not conventional, and as such I will not number them as I and others have done before. For every Sin that is activated, the user must atone for them with a Contrary Virtue after it has ended. Due to this fact I will have to list each Virtue and their effects, but this is already far too long to do so, and as such I will be posting them later.
