Description: In order to enter Sage Mode, the gatherer must remain absolutely still in order to be one with nature and balance the natural energy with their own physical and spiritual energies. If the user puts too little natural energy into using senjutsu, the technique will not work. Conversely, if too much natural energy is taken in, their body will turn to stone forever. It has been shown to be taught by Animal Summons, however in the series the First Hokage seemed to be able to do it with Buddhist based influences revealing great meditation may also make obtaining it possible. The Sage Mode ability has the following advantages:

-The user's physical strength, speed, stamina, reflexes, perception, and durability are enhanced. (+5 Speed and Strength)

-The user's ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu become more powerful. (Adds Chakra)

-The user can sense chakra around them and can sense attacks without the need to see them. (Users can sense people with in 10 Meters around them)

-When facing an opponent that can drain chakra, this can prove to be fatal to the opponent if they absorbed too much chakra and will be turned to stone if they haven't had training with Sage Mode in the past. (If a user without Sage Mode absorbs 100 Senjutsu Chakra - They are turned to stone killing them)

The user must collect Senjutsu Chakra, this requires the following posts:
- 1st Post activates the absorption
- 2nd Post Absorbs 50 Senjutsu Chakra, If the user actually meditates losing their ability to see and hear due to focus they can absorb 100 a post. (Deafness and Blindness only lasts while meditating)
- User can Absorb as much as they want between the second and final activation
- Final Post for Jutsu activates Sage Mode

In order to absorb chakra the user needs to remain still or in meditation, this can be done also with a shadow clone or clone of another sort as shown by Naruto.

This creates a second Chakra pool for the user, labeled Senjutsu Chakra Pool it too can only go up to 500 max.

Sorry that I'm a bit late on this. I have two concerns.

-The user can sense chakra around them and can sense attacks without the need to see them. (Users without Barrier-Ninjutsu can sense people with in 10 Meters, Users with Barrier-Ninjutsu can sense up to 100 Meters)

Thats fine and all but...

"Users with Barrier-Ninjutsu can sense up to 100 Meters" That doesn't exactly make sense. Barrier Ninjutsu is exactly as it sounds, creating and manipulating barriers. The above ability is flat-out sensory and has no correlation. I'd like if the 100 part for Barrier Ninjutsu be removed.

Also, you can halve the wordcounts for gaining it. 8000 is pretty high, especially when training a bijuu is 5,000 words.

Also, increase the Sage Mode upkeep to 20 chakra per post. You gain 50 Senjutsu chakra per post while mediating. Having the maintainence only be -10 is too low.
