Shape Water 5e Guide

Shape Water 5e – You pick a small area of water you can see nearby and fit in a small box. Then, you can do one of these things:

• You can quickly move the water around or change its direction, but not hard enough to hurt anything.
• You can make the water turn into simple shapes and move like they are alive for an hour.
• You can change the colour or the clarity of the water, but it has to stay that way for an hour.
• You can freeze the water if there are no animals or creatures in it, and it will melt back to normal after an hour.

However, you can only do two of these things at once, and you can stop them if you want.
