Water elementals resemble roiling waves of water, which seem to fall upon any creature attacked, only to reform the next round. They take double damage when attacked with air or wind attacks (including air elementals). A water elemental cannot move more than 60’ from a body of water. They do an extra 1d8 points of damage against creatures, vehicles, or structures which are in the water.

Water Elementals are creatures from the Elemental Plane of Water, though they may sometimes be found elsewhere. When encountered on the Prime Material Plane, usually as a result of summoning magic, they take the form of a great wave of water or other liquid, constantly in motion, but retaining an almost humanoid shape. Some claim that they have sea green eyes, of a sort, and others that they were able to discern a mouth. Like others of its kind, though, it rarely responds in kind when spoken to, its language being heard only in the crash of waves.
