Weapon
Pick a weapon from an 85-entry catalog across subcategories (blade, ranged, firearm, fantasy, sci-fi, etc.). Emits “with a X” prompt fragment with description.
Overview
The Weapon parameter node adds a specific weapon as a held or featured element of a generation. Each entry includes a short description that grounds the AI model on appearance and historical/genre context. Injected into the consumer’s prompt as "with a {label}, {description}" via the cinematography handle.
Useful for action, fantasy, period, and sci-fi content. Catalog avoids gratuitous detail; descriptions focus on form and silhouette.
