I'm trying to create a Lion Shield +1, and I since we converted from 3.5 to 5 with it I've cleared with my DM how it is supposed to work, but I can't make it work right.
The shield has three charges (reset at dawn) and a change can be used as a free action to make the shield animate and bite causing 2d6 piercing damage. It used used the shields bonus plus my proficiency modifier as TH.
I tried a couple of things;
1. I created a Modifier on the Shield as a "Natural Weapon", causing it to neatly show up in my attacks list, but
If I choose no primary stat it will default use strength
To provide the correct to TH and damage I have to actively pick a stat and add a fixed value equal to the opposite of my modifier in that stat (I chose DEX and "-1") - but this will make the stats wrong for anyone else using it with other stats
Using the attack will not cause a charge to be used
Is there a way to cause a modifier/action to use a charge?
Is there a way to create a damage that does not add any modifier (only proficiency, if proficient with the item)?
2. I created a custom spell, called Liens Shield Bite, and I set it on the shield to use one charge, but
The damage set in the spell is not shown in neither Spells from Items nor Limited Use
I cannot make it appear in my attacks list
There is no calculation of the TH
Is there a way to cause TH and damage for a spell on an item to be calculated (for TH) displaid?
It there a way to cause a spell on an item to be shown in the attack list?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide me with.

Anyone has an idea how to do/fix this?
