The water elemental's upper body is that of a humanoid, while its lower body forms a turbulent, watery vortex. The facial features of the elemental creature are vague and shifting, rippling with every contortion of its face. Sloshing and splashing noises accompany each movement of the water elemental, along with an odd gurgling.

Other information

- Water Elementals drop a single gem on death. They leave a small puddle of water in the room where they die instead of a searchable corpse.
- An example of a successful water blast:
The water elemental closes its eyes and draws in on itself, arms crossed over its aqueous torso. Suddenly its eyes flash open and it hurls an incredibly powerful blast of water at you!
Time slows to a standstill as you watch the watery blast slam into your seemingly frozen body! You vaguely realize that you are screaming as your shattered body is blasted back into a crumpled heap!
... 50 points of damage!
You try desperately to keep your footing, but fall on your rear instead.
Roundtime: 20 sec.
