This is similar to [[Personality Powers]], but with weapons. Basically, in various works of fiction, characters tend to possess weapons that are either a direct reflection of their personality or the traits commonly deemed to their character type.
Line 52:
 
Of course, any ''true'' Troper's Weapon of Choice would have to be a [[BFG|Big Freakin']] [[Gatling Good|Gatling]] [[Sawed-Off Shotgun|Shotgun]] that can be [[Dual-Wielding|Dual Wielded]] with a [[Bifurcated Weapon|Detachable]] [[Chainsaw Good|Chain-Bladed]] [[Laser Blade|Laser]] [[Katanas Are Just Better]]. Anything else just pales in comparison, save for the [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Giga Drill Breaker]]. If there is a [[Five-Man Band]], the weapons will probably be [[Heroes Prefer Swords]], [[Blade on a Stick]], [[Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me]], [[Simple Staff]], and [[Magic Wand]]. For non-weapon examples, see [[Tell Me How You Fight]]. Contrast [[Choice of Two Weapons]]. See also [[Good Weapon, Evil Weapon]].
