While wielding the Forgemaster's Dagger, as an action you can stab this weapon into the corpse of a Medium or Small humanoid to instantly cast the spell Animate Dead. In order to do so you must know the spell, have it prepared, and expend an appropriate spell slot. Thereafter, the spell must be cast as normal in order to retain control of the animated creature every 24 hours, as per the standard Animate Dead rules.
If you wish to use the Forgemaster's Dagger to cast Animate Dead using a spell slot of 4th level or higher and, therefore, animate additional undead creatures, you must stab the weapon into each individual extra corpse or else cast the spell normally.
Forgemaster's Hammer: This item can also be flavoured as a hammer. It provides the same benefit, but uses the Light Hammer stat block.
Proficiency with a Dagger allows you to add your proficiency bonus to the attack roll for any attack you make with it.
This weapon has the following mastery property. To use this property, you must have a feature that lets you use it.
Nick. When you make the extra attack of the Light property, you can make it as part of the Attack action instead of as a Bonus Action. You can make this extra attack only once per turn.
