So my fighter was able to decapitate a fire giant head and now he wants to use it as a flail. How should i proceed to make the damage dice? I was thinking the modifier should be dex but without proficiency bonus for a couple of sessions. How would you guys do it?
I agree with Unruly Cow...Treat it like a maul. If you want to add some depth for the game, for the time being don't let him add proficiency, but allow him to gain it after so many fights. Don't know your levels or how often you play, but i'd give it a week or two in game time of him fighting with it, and let him pick it up.

There isn't a 2 handed flail in 5e, so I would treat it as a maul.
