A new Apple Pencil meant to be a model between the Gen 1 and Gen 2. It costs $79 USD and charges via USB-C. It has the ability to magnetically attach to your iPad, but lacks pressure sensitivity.

Is it recognized by the iPad it just doesn't draw? Was it functioning before the incident?

More than likely something inside the Pencil is broken if it worked before, but doesn't now. These can be really tricky to repair since Apple didn't really build them to be taken apart. When iFixit did a teardown of the original pencil, they just cut it open, because there isn't a great way to get into these. Everything is glued together. But my guess is that if it's recognized, something in the actual drawing mechanism is not functioning anymore. As loathe as I am to say it, you will probably be better off replacing this.

you probably broke something on the pencil itself, if not, you have to make sure your iPad generation is compatible with the pencil(USB-C version), apple is really weird with how that works.
