A rotting wooden mace with moss covering most of its length, a collection of small near needle like holes in the head. As the mace gains charges of the Parasitic Strike ability a thorny barb protrudes from one of those holes.

Weapon

Legendary Requires Attunement

You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. Additionally you gain the following benefits:

Parasitic Strike. On a successful hit the weapon generates a charge of 1D4 that is stored for later use. A maximum of 10 can be stored.

Shared Symbiosis. As a bonus action you can expend all stored charges of Parasitic Strike to heal a creature within 20ft of you. Roll a number of D4s equal to the amount of charges expended and heal the creature by that amount. Additionally you heal by half the total.

Infectious Malice. As a free action as part of your attack you can expend all stored charges of Parasitic Strike to deal additional damage to your target. Roll a number of D4s equal to the amount of charges expended and add that to the attack in the form of necrotic damage. If the attack kills the creature the remaining damage is dealt to a creature of your choice within 10ft.
