OGC:Water Domain (5e Subclass)
Water Domain
Clerical Divine Domain
Water is essential to all life, but it is also a primal, untameable force. In addition to deities of oceanic might like Poseidon and Aegir, this domain is also held by the gods of rivers and lakes, who are often imagined as being much friendlier to humanity than the hungry, wine-dark sea.
This domain might also be part of the portfolio of a god of sailors, marines, or fishermen, who grants mortals the understanding of how to use the waters for their own purposes.

As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak in a booming voice. Each living creature within 30 feet that can understand you and hear you must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, that creature is frightened of you for 1 minute or until it takes damage.

Body of Water
At 17th level, you gain the power to transform your body into a liquid form that retains your features and resembles your normal form. While liquid, you gain resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from nonmagical attacks and immunity to poison damage and the grappled, paralyzed, petrified, poisoned and restrained conditions. You also gain vulnerability to fire and cold damage, as these damage types cause you to boil or freeze, and cease to be liquid.
You can activate this power as a bonus action; it persists until you take a long rest, take fire or cold damage, or end this effect as an action.
You must complete a long or short rest before you can use this feature again.
