The Staff of Living Lightning is the personal magical staff of the Wizard Shazam.
History
Prime Earth
The Staff of the Living Lighting is the personal magic staff created and used by Mamaragan, being one of the artifacts he uses most frequently. Unlike the name would imply however, the Staff of the Living Lightning itself acts as a conduit for power and doesn't contain the actual power of the Living Lighting; the staff was once sought by Yuga Khan in order to bolster his own powers and he briefly usurped it before Billy Batson defeated him and reclaimed it, taunting the god for his mistaken belief and ignorance regarding the fact it doesn't actually ocntain neither the Living Lightning's powers nor could it siphone Billy of his power.[1]
DC Extended Universe
The magical staff called the Staff of the Gods was a mystical relic created by the Wizard Shazam long ago for the god Atlas, who along with the other gods saw humanity as playthings. Longing to end the suffering at divine hands, Shazam and other wizards banded together and used the staff to steal attributes of their power, depowered them, and sealed them away in the Realm of the Gods.[2]

Notes
