Friends and I made up some fun ones a long time ago. Some a little more clever than others. Really basic abilities and such. This is my friends.

Karyuujin. Plain katana, black grip with yellow diamond hand guard.

"Melt them from the core": The katana becomes briefly enveloped in flames, revealing then a saw-toothed katana. The grip changes to a bright orange and the scabbard becomes red-yellow. The sword gains a small meter embedded into the grip.

Emergence: The katana slowly gains a red filling in the meter as Karyuujin strikes or blocks blows. Once the meter is filled, Karyuujin can use its second ability, "Fire Away." While the meter fills, embers and sparks are periodically emitted from the hand guard towards the blade.

Fire Away: Once the meter is filled, Karyuujin can unleash a torrent of flames. The meter is reset upon use.

Shikidan Karyuujin. Upon release, the sword morphs into a gunblade. The blade shortens, the grip curves slightly, while a shorty rifle barrel and enlarged revolver stock takes the place of the hand guard. The scabbard disappears. The swords grip retains its color, but the blade now has a decorative flame running along its side. The meter remains intact. Its wielders eyes glow a bright yellow and wings of fire erupt from their back.

Revel: As Karyuujin is used in melee, it slowly fills the gauge. Once a gauge is completed, a spiritual bullet is loaded. Up to six rounds can be loaded.

Napalm Drop/Firestorm: A shinigami may have Karyuujin fire a single bullet which is filled with the Shinigami's reiatsu. Once the bullet makes contact or explodes, flames similar to napalm are released. These flames are only extinguished once the reiatsu feeding them disappears. The Shinigami does have a choice of using multiple bullets at once if more than one have been stored.

Sliver of Fire: Unlike its shikai, Karyuujin can release fire upon command if even only part of the gauge has been filled. The flames released are relatively weak compared to the compressed bullets, but remain effective nonetheless.

Beating Hearth: Karyuujin grants its wielder a fire barrier for protection by using the wings.

The Dragon's Ring: The wings dissipate into a ring of fire around its wielder which can be used as a ramming tool, setting ablaze all that it comes in contact with.

I might post my own later.
