Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals 5e
Wondrous Item, rare
While this bowl is filled with water, you can use an action to speak the bowl's command word and summon a water elemental, as if you had cast the Conjure Elemental spell. The bowl can't be used this way again until the next dawn.
The bowl is about 1 foot in diameter and half as deep. It weighs 3 pounds and holds about 3 gallons.

Want a water elemental? You just need one simple ingredient: a Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals! The name is a bit of a misnomer, as it doesn’t let you command multiple elementals simultaneously, but it still can be a huge boon to your party.
Water Elementals have a robust suite of interesting abilities, from their Whelm action to their Water Form aiding in exploring narrow spaces.
Conjure Elemental has a major downside: when you break concentration, the elemental goes nuts and can try to kill you, so be careful!
Three gallons of water isn’t necessarily given to have at any given moment; make sure when you’re playing with this you’ve got a barbarian carrying a keg of the stuff, or otherwise have a Decanter of Endless Water or nearby water source to ensure you can get your elemental buddy out and in the action!
