History

It can be used for base offensive purpose, but can also be used for a variety of mystical effects, such as cleaving a spatial aperture in the middle of the ocean. The trident is capable of controlling any body of water, creating water elementals, speed ships and other water vehicles with water, create fogs and storms of high intensity, summon waves of water to propel him at great speeds, and create earthquakes by increasing water pressure. It can manipulate and conjure water, as well as disperse energy in the form of electrical bolts and forcefields.

Having command over the earth generating quakes, rock formations and other seismic activity. Conjure up ice and cold, teleport vast distances using water as a medium and calling down heavy thunder and lightning to strike enemies.

This new weapon also transforms from a small sword with an enchanted blade and back into three pronged lancet on command. In order to stop the Coven of Thule once and for all, Aquaman was forced to relinquish his enchantments, including the Trident.[1] He would eventually obtain a replacement shortly afterwards as his kingdom expanded, the powers it withholds now remaining relatively the same.[1] Arthur having used it to gore the godlike Kryptonian Rao with relative ease, as well as dispatch an army of fanatical Kryptonians under his command by conjuring a tidal wave sweeping them away.[2]
