Morph Weapon: A gun that can transform into a sword.

Shapeshifter Weapon: You're a shapeshifter so you can turn your arm into a gun or a sword if you need to fight.

I didn't write any of that.

Morph Weapon has another preexisting term Shapeshifting Weapon and other similar names all these tropes have names that are just too close.

Also Shapeshifter Weapon just plain sounds funny... A "Shapeshifter's Weapon" or such would actually make the trope's name make sense as this is their weapon.

^^ the misuse; he can turn into a T-Rex in a fight, making himself a weapon.

Another way to put that, keeping the same pattern...

Misuse: You're a shapeshifter so you can transform into a gun or a sword.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.

....yeah....

I got hyper-focused on my own mental image. Rodney has it right.

Time to give up on the crowner?

Calling the crowner. No consensus to rename.

We at least need to do something about the misuse. I checked half the alphabet and a number of entries need clarifying, explaining, or pruning. (Fi's entry for Skyward Sword, for one, is just plain wrong.)

Clocking due to lack of activity.

Perhaps the trope here needs to be transplanted, and Shapeshifter Weapon made the redirect or main title for Morph Weapon?

A Shapeshifter IS a Weapon?
