Shadow Blade
Melee Weapon Attack +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. 7 () Piercing damage plus 10 () Necrotic damage. Unless the target is immune to Necrotic damage, the target's Strength score is reduced by each time it is hit by this attack. The target dies if its Strength is reduced to 0. The reduction lasts until the target finishes a short or long rest. If a non-evil humanoid dies from this attack, a shadow (see the Monster Manual) rises from the corpse hours later.
