Staff of the Water's Guardian

This staff is intricately carved from a smooth, iridescent blue coral and adorned with a polished sapphire at its tip. It resonates with the elemental power of water and is often bestowed upon those who have earned the favor of water-dwelling races.
While attuned to this staff, you gain the following benefits:
Spellcasting Focus: The staff can be used as a spellcasting focus for your spells.
Aquatic Affinity: You can breathe underwater as naturally as you breathe air.
Water Manipulation: Once per long rest, you can use the staff to cast the Control Water spell without expending a spell slot. When you do so, the water manipulated by the spell takes on the vibrant hues of the coral on the staff.
Elemental Ward: The staff grants you resistance to cold damage and advantage on saving throws against being frozen or restrained.
Guardian's Protection: As a reaction when you or an ally within 30 feet of you takes cold damage, you can use the staff to absorb the energy of the attack, reducing the damage taken by 1d10 + your Constitution modifier. This property can be used once per long rest.
Aquatic Connection: While submerged in water, you can use the staff to cast Water Breathing on yourself and up to five willing creatures within 30 feet. Once this ability is used, it can't be used again until the next dawn.
This staff embodies the power of water and serves as both a symbol of your alliance with the lizard folk and a potent tool for those who venture beneath the waves.
