Title says it all. What are your favorite weapons from fiction? It can be from video games, tv shows, movies etc. For me:
The High-frequency blades from the Metal Gear games. Used by Cyborg ninjas Raiden, Gray Fox and Olga Gurlukovich as well as the mercenaries Sundowner and Jetstream Sam. These are swords that reinforced by a powerful alternating current and resonates at extremely high frequencies. This oscillation weakens the molecular bonds of anything it cuts, thereby increasing its cutting ability. Striking, cutting, and thrusting attacks are performed with the blade, with the sharpened edge and point used for lethal attacks, and the blunt edge used as a clubbing weapon. Proficient users were also able to wield the blade with such accuracy and speed that they were able to deflect bullets.
Ruby Rose's Crescent Rose from the web series RWBY. Crescent Rose is a scythe that transforms into a rifle. It was designed by Ruby herself. Ruby uses the recoil from Crescent Rose's shots to augment the speed and force of her strikes. However, she is also able to spin Crescent Rose with exemplary skill and power without the recoil, often executing chain attacks with this technique.
Yang Xiao Long's Ember Celica from the same series as above. A pair of gauntlets which fire bullets. When Yang throws a punch she can shoot explosive rounds from Ember Celica for moderate or short ranged attacks. Ember Celica also has powerful recoil which can be utilized to augment the force of her punch and accelerate her movements. She can also use her Ember Celica as a form of armor when defending against attacks in unarmed combat.
Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth. At first, the Lasso doesn't seem that impressive. However, it is nigh unbreakable making it perfect for restraint. And it has been used to cause psychological breakdowns in people by forcing them to confront the truth about themselves. Diana used this ability on a Nazi once. It can also free people from mind control.
Those are mine. What are yours?
