I'm sure I'm too late for this, but my Kingmaker 5E players are within spitting distance of obtaining Briar, so here's what I've got.
For context, I have it in three phases, inspired by Critical Role's Vestiges of Divergence and their Dormant, Awakened, and Exalted states.
Briar (Dormant)
+2 Longsword that can cast Barkskin on its wielder 3x/day. Briar Awakens when it acquires 8 Sharpness Points.
Briar (Awakened)
+3 Longsword that can cast Barkskin on its wielder 3x/day. Once per month, when its wielder dies, Briar casts Revivfy on its wielder. Awakened Briar is a Chaotic Neutral sentient weapon with INT 18, WIS 18, and CHA 24. It speaks Common and Sylvan, it can speak verbally and telepathically, and it can hear up to 120 ft.
Sapping Strike. As a reaction, when you hit a creature with Briar, you can spend your Reaction to force it to make a CON save of 19 or taken 5d10 necrotic damage (or 1/2 on a successful save) as Briar saps the life from its target.
Briar becomes Exalted when it acquires 16 Sharpness points or comes within 30 ft of [Redacted for spoilers].
Briar (Exalted)
+3 Vorpal Longsword that can cast Barkskin on its wielder 3x/day. Once per month, when its wielder dies, Briar resurrects the wielder with full hit points and whatever unspent spell slots or abilities the wielder still had when they died.
Sapping Strike upgrades to 7d10.
Convergence. The first time Briar's wielder strikes [Redacted for spoilers], they must make a DC 30 CON save or become Slowed until the end of their turn. Regardless of whether [Redacted] makes the save, the wielder gains Advantage against [Redacted]'s spells until the end of [Redacted's] turn.
