How it grew.

Dormant:

• You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
• When you hit with this weapon, you can move up to half of your movement and do not provoke opportunity attacks
• While attuned to this weapon, you can read, write and speak infernal.
• The damage type of this weapon is Necrotic.

Awakened:

• You have a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
• Once per long rest, you can use this weapon to cast dispel magic as an attack roll. The DC is compared against the attack roll. Damage is calculated as normal.
• This weapon gains the thrown property with a range of 60 feet. Regardless of a hit or a miss, the Gore Master returns to your hand in a stream of black, shadowy liquid particles.
• On a hit, The Goremaster does an additional 2d6 psychic damage.

Exalted:

• You have a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.
• Life Drain: When you score a critical hit with the Gore Master, you regain hit points equal to the necrotic damage dealt.
• Gory Mist: When you score a critical hit with the Gore Master, you can choose to have a mist of darkness emanate from your enemy. The area within 10 feet of the struck enemy becomes heavily obscured, and each creature in that area must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be blinded until the start of your next turn.
• For 1 hour as a bonus action, you can sprout fiend-like demonic wings and gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed. This property can't be used again until the next dawn.

In campaign 2

SAM took this black-ichor greataxe after the arena at Wildharbour in 1034, before it was identified. He later used it in Fort Obsidian.
