Weapon

Very Rare Requires Attunement

You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. Its blade is cruelly serrated, and its hilt resembles a devilish head and wings. Whenever you slay a humanoid with an attack using the dagger, the creature's soul is imprisoned inside the dagger, and that creature can be restored to life only by a wish spell. The dagger can hold a maximum of five souls.   For each soul imprisoned in the dagger, your attacks with it deal an extra 1d4 necrotic damage on a hit. While the dagger is within 5 feet of you, your dreams are haunted by whispers from the trapped souls.   Siphon Vitality. As a bonus action, you can release any number of stored souls from the dagger to regain 1d10 hit points per soul released.   Finesse. When making an attack with a finesse weapon, you use your choice of your Strength or Dexterity modifier for the attack and damage rolls. You must use the same modifier for both rolls.   Light. A light weapon is small and easy to handle, making it ideal for use when fighting with two weapons.   Thrown. If a weapon has the thrown property, you can throw the weapon to make a ranged attack. If the weapon is a melee weapon, you use the same ability modifier for that attack roll and damage roll that you would use for a melee attack with the weapon. For example, if you throw a handaxe, you use your Strength, but if you throw a dagger, you can use either your Strength or your Dexterity, since the dagger has the finesse property.   Curse. Once you attune to this weapon, you cannot unattune to it. As long as you remain cursed, you are unwilling to part with the dagger, keeping it on your person at all times. While attuned to this weapon, you are unwilling to use any other melee weapon than the dagger.
This dagger always seems to go for the heart of its opponents. While using this weapon, when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a melee attack, you are unable to knock the creature out and must kill it.
