Line 11:
Sometimes more exotic solutions present themselves of course, with characters who are capable of [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]] into a weapon (typically a powerful one, otherwise they would just be [[Awesome but Impractical|cutting their forces in half]]). Weapons which can manifest [[Projected Man|some sort]] of [[Avatar]] or otherwise interact like any other character also count. A related trope is the [[Empathic Weapon]], which seems to have some vague form of intelligence or link with its wielder but not enough to count as a person (although particular powerful examples might overlap with this trope under special circumstances).
 
An improvised version of this (i.e. picking up an ally and using them to strike an enemy) could overlap with [[Grievous Harm With a Body]] or [[Fastball Special]] if a habit is made of it (examples of these go on the relevant pages). If they're used as [[Abnormal Ammo|ammunition]] see [[Catapult to Glory]]. A [[Sub -Trope]] of [[Living Weapon]].

** In ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]-2'', Mog serves as one to Serah, being able to transform into a sword or bow for her to wield.
* In ''[[Whiplash]]'', the player character consists of a weasel and a rabbit chained together. Spanx (the weasel) can use Redmond (the rabbit) as a weapon by swinging him on the chain to knock over guards and generally cause mayhem.
* The [[Player Character]] in the game ''[http://www.nitrome.com/games/knuckleheads/ Knuckleheads]'' is two heads connected by a [[Variable -Length Chain]]. One head acts as the anchor, while the other swings around to move and/or [[Use Your Head|bash enemies]].
* In ''[[Sonic Heroes]]'' (where you play as a team of three characters), your other two team members serve as projectiles for whichever of them you are controlling at that moment. Speed type characters use them to follow up their homing attack; flying types throw them and Power types spike them to enemies like volleyballs.
* ''[[Skies of Arcadia|Skies of Arcadia: Legends]]'': [[Shape Shifter|Cupil]] is Fina's companion/pet, usually worn around her wrist as a bracelet. In battle, he can transform into different weapons and objects and attack enemies for her.
