You did a good job of balancing out a semblance that should be OP and making it bearable. He is a bit heavily stereotypical, and the plot between him and the female whose name I have already forgotten (regrettably) is a bit overdone, I think. Also, please explain the CNR for this one, if you can, since I don't see your characters fitting into it. I understand if your character(s) do not fit inside the CNR, but others (coughLiveandSoundcoughcough ;P) will not be so forgiving.

Also, giving him all of those characteristics in combat seems a bit close to OP - you might want to balance it out, perhaps by weakening his endurance to make up for his cautious and precise fighting style. Also, the gauntlets sound cool, but not like something he would end up using very much, since he already has a sword. They're a cool idea, but I don't think they're necessary, since I am certain their are several defensive styles that go well with a katana.

One more thing - is it really necessary for Castigation (made me laugh with the name btw, well played) to have two different rifle forms? A rifle of any kind (including assault) and a carbine are already similar enough that most people on the street couldn't tell you the difference beyond what they think CoD or Battlefield got right. In actuality, the only difference between the two is that a carbine has a shorter barrel, so I would advise you pick one or the other. You could still easily have a magnifier or hybrid sight of some kind on it to make it useful at different ranges.

I guess I should add on the question of how exactly a katana can turn into a rifle/carbine? You explained it in the sheet, but kind of lost me. >.> For the CNR "Takoizu" is japanese for turquoise, and if you had read the trivia section you would have found that out. About the carbine/assault rifle, the barrel can just shorten or extend; also, there already is a 2x-20x magnification sight built into Castigation. Other than that, thanks for the feedback JayHart, it really helped.
