From that scene with Atlanteans showing (maybe) ATLAN he had a 3-proned "fishing-fork" or the so called TRIdent:

Mmmm, I see...interesting.
I thought she was trying to stop him to have a conversation with him, he couldn't leave that bubble
He touched the wall of the bubble and the water broke, so I think he could've left if he wanted, I mean, he's Aquaman, water (and women....and men...) bend to his will

It already happened. Erotic fanfics about that character would be unthinkable till recently and I already *accidentally* saw some of that filth happening
Per MomoWOAH - "He's not a king yet, so he is not using the trident"
"Accidentally"....right.

Yeah, I read that; I guess that means the one he uses in JL (and BvS, although retroactively that scene might be ignored or not) is not the trident but a trident.

Atlan (Aquaman's father) has the Trident, which is the trident of Poseidon (Greek god of seas, Romans called him Neptune.) That trident has magical properties.
Only King of Atlantis can have it. Since Aquman is not a King, he is having a pentadent.
Slight correction, Atlan is the legendary King of Atlantis, but he's not Arthur's father (that'd be Thomas Curry); my confusion came from the trident, although not so much confusion as it is a matter of personal preference, since I prefer the quindent (Jason called it "Bernadette") to Atlan's trident, but since the comics one also changed design from the quindent to the trident I wanted to figure out if they were both supposed to be the same one (as reimagined by different artists) or 2 different objects; if the latter is the case, I can see a plot point in Aquaman's movie him losing/breaking/etc Bernadette and him having to find/obtain Poseidon's trident.
Or maybe the trident is in Orm's possession...now that I think about it, that makes sense...
I'm only curious about the comics side of things when it comes to the trident, I guess.
