Mimic Sword

A particularly smart mimic has taken the form of that resembling a short sword after realizing that adventures can provide them with a near infinite amount of food and carry them far and wide. 
Any time a person attempts to perceive the true nature of the sword they must make a DC 18 nature check. If they fail then to that individual it appears as a normal short sword unless it uses one of its special abilities. 
This sword grants a +2 to all attacks and damage rolls made with it. This sword can take on three different forms mimic mode, short sword and rapier with damage of 3d6 magical piercing, 2d8 magical slashing and 4d4 magical piercing respectively. If a creature is hit by the sword in mimic mode, it will try to grapple the target. The mimic sword has a strength modifier of +3.
If the mimic has eaten in the past 24 hours the sword will shift to whichever blade the wielder wants. If the blade has not eaten in 24 hours the sword transforms into mimic mode and attacks the nearest creature that isn’t wielding or carrying the sword. If the wielder of this sword falls in battle, the mimic sword will immediately consume them and turn back into a mimic with the stat block of the person/creature they consumed.
