Gibbering Razor

Weapon (shortsword), legendary (requires attunement by a chaotic creature)

Using its teeth and folds of flesh to whistle and chatter in a myriad of hushed noises, the Gibbering Razor is a thoroughly disturbed weapon. Made from the flesh of an Eldritch Dragon, this blade is fueled through abberant power. For every day you are attuned to this sword, you grow increasingly strange deformities on your body.

The sword can hold a maximum of 7 charges that can be expended to perform the following feats of power:

Babble (1 charge). As a bonus action, the sword's incessant chattering increases in volume and disrupts enemy thoughts. Creatures within 5 feet of you cannot use spells or abilities until the start of your next turn.

Hush (2 charges). As part of an attack, you force a creature to succeed on a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or have their voice sucked out of their bodies. On a failed saving throw, the creature takes an additional 4d4 psychic damage and loses the ability to use their voice for 1 minute. On a succesful saving throw, they take half damage and are not silenced.

Grind (3 charges). Upon dealing damage to a creature, you force the weapon's teeth to interlock with the target. The target has to succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be grappled. While grappled by the sword, whenever you make an attack against the grappled creature, you can make another attack as part of the same action.

All expended charges are replenished at dawn.
