Water Elemental

**Water Elementals** are elemental creatures made of water and various other liquids.

## Description

A water elemental is a muscular humanoid formed from glimmering blue-green water; polished brass bracers encircle its hefty arms and two glowing blue eyes shine from a featureless head. Its torso trails off into a vestigial whirlpool. Some water elementals have become corrupted, appearing green instead of blue. Water elementals, perhaps the most versatile of all the elementals, possess strong arms, quick reflexes, and hearty constitutions. Enemies fear them, for water elementals possess devastating slam attacks, numbing blows, and the capacity to form powerful whirlpools. They are also the most secretive. Many have never seen daylight and dwell near ocean wrecks and forgotten cities. Of all the elementals, adventurers are most likely to succeed in diplomatic overtures with water elementals. Water elementals rely on their vortex as a primary attack and then switch to melee combat as appropriate. They focus their numbing blows on a single target, hoping to neutralize one threat before turning their attention to other combatants.

## Capabilities

Water Elementals are made up of or can transform their body completely into water. Water Elementals transformed form is anatomically identical to their normal form, aside of being made of water, in which case it contains all to organs and is somewhat vulnerable to attacks. Alternately Water Elementals can transform into homogeneous matter, without any part of their form being more important than the other.

## Common powers

**Amorphous Physiology:** Water Elementals bodies are composed of a flexible, amorphous substance that can be manipulated in a variety of ways.

**Aquatic Adaptation:** Water Elementals are able to survive and adapt to underwater environments, being able to breathe water in lieu of, or along with, a gaseous breathing medium, to swim well and to endure high water pressure and extreme water temperatures.

**Contaminant Immunity:** Water Elementals are immune to poisons, toxins, venoms, viruses, bacteria, parasites, pathogens, allergen, etc.

**Dermal Armor:** Water Elementals have or can generate an innate armor as a part of their body, which is resistant to attacks, harm or pain, and temperature extremes.

**Disease Immunity:** Water Elementals immunity, digestive, and other organ systems are enhanced or evolved far beyond that of a normal human.

**Enhanced Durability:** Water Elementals' physical durability, the ability to withstand damage, is extremely high, allowing them to take numerous blows of internal or external assaults before succumbing to the effects.

**Enhanced Endurance:** Water Elementals can endure physical stresses beyond the capabilities of the greatest humans, enabling them to do things such as: tolerate extreme amounts of physical pain, having your limbs ripped off or having your bones completely crushed, being corroded by acid, and even resisting extremely painful headaches for prolonged periods of time.

**Enhanced Lung Capacity:** Water Elementals have the ability to use the oxygen that resides in their lungs more efficiently than normal, allowing them the ability to hold their breath for extended periods of time.

**Enhanced Strength:** Water Elementals can raise thousands of pounds to tens of thousands of pounds.

**Grate Walking:** Water Elementals can walk through any surface as long as there are holes, gaps, etc. in them as easily as water goes down a drain and through a pipe.

**Hydrokinetic Intangibility:** Water Elementals transforms into water to achieve a form of intangibility, allowing attacks to either pass right through them or be harmlessly absorbed into their bodies, as well as phase through solid objects that aren't water-proof.

**Scattering:** Water Elementals can disperse their body into smaller fragments, like someone who already is made of sand, insects or water spreading themselves or vampires that can turn into a flock of bats, scattering into a large area while retaining control over their fragments instead of staying in relatively cohesive form and reforming from any part.

**Speed Swimming:** Water Elementals can swim at incredible speeds, unrestricted by water resistance.

**Water Generation:** Water Elementals are able to physically and mentally generate water from the users own body.

**Water Hair:** Water Elementals have hair composed of water.
