So i have found this desciption of the enkidu chains of gilgamesh and wanted it for my gilgamesh character in one of the campagins im in but i do not know how to transfer it into dnd 5e thanks for any help/tips with this

Name: Enkidu
Type: Bladed Chains
Enkidu :

A legendary chain made to bind and reign in the gods, the Enkidu was a weapon said to be one of the few weapons able to control and subdue divine beings, however that does not mean that it was meant for just gods. The chain was also useful against mere humans as well as its divine propertys made humans feel as if escape was impossible by just coming into contact with the Chain. However the chain is very picky about its wielder and it is said that the one that is chosen to wield this weapon would gain gifts from the gods themselves. The length of the chain is said to increase with the strength of the user (10 feet for D rank, 20 for C, 30 for B, 40 for A and 50 for S). The chain is Summoned thru Red tattoos that are branded on the users body when they obtain the weapon.
Strengths:
- the weapon is considered a Divine weapon and thus cannot be used except by one the weapon chooses
-The weapon has multiple uses from binding an enemy to strangling or stabbing them the uses for this weapon are vast.
-The user always has this on their person as it is summoned thru a portal connected to the red markings on the users body thus they are never without a weapon.
Weaknesses:
-though the chain has long reach if one has the strength to grab it and pull the user can be taken off balance
- Since the chain is made of metal lightning can travel thru it and harm the wielder.
- while its power is at its best against gods and anything holding some form of Divinity against humans it is not as effective but still very powerful.
- when used as a flail the weapon needs a few feet to be able to accumulate enough power and speed to be effective.
Abilities:
Passive-
- The Chain has the ability to shrink and expand its length according to the users will but it cannot exceed the length that matches the users rank.
Ability :

Name: Leash of the gods.
Rank: C- (Ranks up to S)
Duration: 4 posts or untill broken
Cooldown: 5 posts
Description: the user will chant “ Enkidu: Bind” before the ground the area around the target will open up with 10 portals and 10 replicas of Enkidu will fired out and ensnare the target preventing them from moving . The chains will prevent those one rank or more lower then the User from moving completely for, those equal to the user in rank will gain a 50% speed reduction, those one rank above will gain a 25% speed reduction and those two ranks above will be able to break free.
Strengths: -since the chains appear from around the target evading it can be difficult as some cannot be seen right off the bat.
-These chains are even more effective against divine beings as the original was designed to handle those blessed with divinity.
-the user does not have to state the chant aloud they need only mouth or whisper the words to trigger the effect.

Weaknesses: -the user must be touching the chain to be able to trigger the effect if it is not being touched the effect will not work.
-This effect while fast can be predicted if the user is cautious enough to see the user mouth the words and has seen it before they can dodge it more easily.
-While the number of chains is large they cannot go to far from the portal they have been created from limiting their range.
-the copys of Enkidu are weak to dark magic.

Ability 2 :

Name: Divine Execution
Rank: C (rank up to A)
Duration: 1
Cooldown: 4 posts
Description: The user will hold Enkidu taut before speaking the words."Enkidu-Death" before causing eight portals to appear infront of the user and behind the target, the four behind the target release copys of Enkidu to wrap around the targets limbs to bind them before the four infront of the user fire out and seek to impale them before all eight tighten and attempt to dislocate the targets limbs causing C rank damage (Ranking up with each level and capping at A)
Users one rank or more under the user cannot break free without use of a higher rank spell, users equal to the users rank only gain a 50% speed reduction before the attack and users one rank above only get a 25% speed reduction before the attack and those 2 ranks above the user are uneffected and have full mobility.
Strengths:
- since the portals appear behind the opponent as well as infront of them giving the user a level of suprise.
-The chains are even more effective then normal against divine beings though they are still effective against humans and demons.
-even if the attacks do not land on the target, the speed reduction gives the user a opening to strike.
[b]Weaknesses:
-The user must be touching the chain to use the spell if they release the original chain the spell will fail.
-if the opponent reacts fast enough after seeing the first four portals infront of them they can dodge the four behind them.
-Opponents that have enough Physical strength can resist the strain of the chains trying to dislocate the limbs.
- the chains are weak to dark magic.
