Characterization
Waterforming is characterized by the color blue, and by three shallow W-shaped lines that run parallel to each other. This represents the waves of the lakes and seas. Furthermore, Waterforming is also connotated with the arms and hands, as many depcitions of legendary Anima Sensei or Waterformers depict them sometimes with ice crystals around their wrists, and usually always with water flying around their hands. It is considered the 2nd element in The Anima Cycle.

Water is considered a Female Element, along with Earth and Darkness. This does not mean that there are not male Waterformers, or even that there are more female Waterformers than male ones. It is more of an old cultural tradition that likely spawned from some Serenghe mythology of sorts.

Notable Waterformers
The Lakamaté of Water varies by book. In the early volumes, it is Kazié Sherazi Amirez. In some of the later books, it is Tenoko Zoraki Dragmãr 2. The titans of Water are Ariel and Luna. These two are the most powerful Waterformers in the world of Mencu, and the Lakamaté of Water is the most powerful mortal Waterformer currently alive.
