* ''[[Tales (series)]]'':
** Fell Arms from Tales of Vesperia is a series of weapons that are said to have spawned from a fourteen-headed monster or at the height of civilization as weapons of untold power. They can resonate with each other, which can discern an ordinary weapon from another.
** Soma from Tales of Hearts are tools from the Age of Stones, and the method to make them is lost. People who wield Soma are called Somatics and can form a connection called a Somatic Bond. Each tool manifested is different based on the user, such as one taking the form of a sword while another would be an ax.
* [[Living Weapon|Blades]] from ''[[Xenoblade Chronicles 2]]'' are immortal weaponized life forms that can link to people called Drivers. A person can become a Driver if they resonate with the Core Crystal of the Blade. They come in rarities of Common to Legendary. They can grant their Drivers a weapon, Blade Arts, and empower them with [[Life Energy|Ether]].

* ''[[Critical Role]]'': [[Forged by the Gods|Vestiges of Divergence]] are ancient but powerful artifacts from [[Götterdämmerung|The Calamity]] during the Age of Arcanum.

* The mechashift weapons possessed by Huntsmen and Huntresses in the world of Remnant from ''[[RWBY]]'' are unique to their wielders (and often are designed and built by them), and are unlike the more ordinary static weapons carried by members of the four Kingdoms' police and military. If someone possesses a mechashift weapon, they are all but guaranteed to be a licensed Huntsman/Huntress or studying to be one. Huntresses and Huntsmen customize their armaments to match their fighting styles and, where appropriate, [[Personality Powers|Semblances]]. They can channel their [[Life Energy|Aura]] into them, and frequently use [[Mana|Dust]]{{Context|reason=How is Dust Mana since it starts out as a crystals and refined into fuel? Here is a video that should back it up: https://youtu.be/ts106QFjF3k?si=dW10bZm_UzSwnbzq}} as ammunition as well as augment their Semblances.
