Whenever I try to use my apple pencil it claims it is on 3%. So I charge it fully to 100 and then I unplug it to use and it dies immediately but wont let me use the pencil at all. I’ve tried everything, forgetting device, updating my ipad but nothing seems to work. The apple pencil will connect successfully but then will not work. For context, its a first generation apple pencil with an iPad air 3.

Your Apple Pencil is exhibiting symptoms of a dead battery - that will not accept or hold any charge.
The tiny internal Li-ion battery is susceptible to permanent/irreversible damage through being left discharged for long periods. Even some “new” pencils can exhibit signs of failure out-of-the-box if they are “old stock”. It is essential that if you have an Apple Pencil that you charge it regularly - whether used or not - so as to protect the battery from deep-discharge. Do not allow a pencil to remain in low-charge state for any period of time - as the internal battery will fail, rendering the Pencil useless. Setting aside an unused Pencil, for extended periods, is a recipe for premature death of the Pencil battery.
If the Pencil Battery has failed, the only remedy is to replace the Pencil. If the battery has failed and your pencil is within its one-year warranty, you should look to having it replaced by your retailer or at an Apple Store.
I hope this information proves to be helpful in both diagnosing and resolving the problem.
