Springwing

Weapon (scimitar), uncommon (optional attunement)

Component: pouch of fey feathers

To create this scimitar, the sumptuous feathers of fey creatures are dipped in molten metal and thereafter shaped and sharpened to create small steel swallows. The swallows describe complex and hypnotising patterns in the air as they fly around the blade, and the screech produced by the beating of their wings resembles the cacophonous chirping of dozens of birds.

Swallow’s Flight. This weapon has the thrown property (range 20/60). When thrown, it functions similarly to a boomerang, spinning as it flies through the air and returning to your hand after the attack hits or misses.

Optional Attunement. If you choose to attune to this item, you can use the Flock On property while you remain attuned to it.

OA: Flock On. As an action while holding the sword, you can speak its command word, causing the flocks of metallic swallows to fly towards a creature of your choice within 30 feet of you, circling and harassing it for 1 minute, or until the creature is reduced to 0 hit points, you are unconscious, or you speak the command word again (no action required). At the start of each of its turns, the creature must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 2d6 slashing damage and has disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls until the start of its next turn. Once this property of the sword has been used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.
