The weapon's damage type changes depending on this roll. Base damage of the sword/weapon it originally takes the form (like longsword, shortsword…) will be added to the the type damage. Acid, Fire, Cold, Lightning, and Poison doesn't stack, but continue until the one hit with it successfully makes a Dexterity saving throw. It it possible to inflict more than one on an enemy.

“	It may look like a normal sword on the outside but it has been imbued with the essence of Dragons from all types, allowing the sword to change its form. No one knows if this sword was from experimenting with the Draconic Essence in weapons, and all we do know is that the sword may be sentient from the mass amount of Draconic Essence. We have heard rumors that people heard voices coming from it, and these are simply false. There is no possible way there is still any souls in the weapons…	”
