Pact of the Blade in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Pact of the Blade

Warlock

You can use your action to create a pact weapon in your empty hand. You can choose the form that this melee weapon takes each time you create it. You are proficient with it while you wield it. This weapon counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.
You pact weapon disappears if it‘s more than 5ft. away from you for 1 minute or more. It also disappears if you use thus feature again, if you dismiss the weapon (no action required), or if you die.
You can transform one magic weapon into your pact weapon by performing a special ritual while you hold the weapon. You perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a short rest.
You cab dismiss the weapon, shunting it into an extradimensional space, and it appears whenever you create your pact weapon thereafter. You can‘t affect an artifact or sentient weapon in this way. The weapon ceases being your pact weapon if you die, if you perform the 1-hour ritual on a different weapon, or if you use a 1-hour ritual to break your bond to it. The weapon appears at your feet if ut‘s in the extradimensional space when the bond breaks.
