Background: An easy-going, yet somewhat eclectic Water Mage, Lake is intrigued by the fluidic nature of Water Elementals and constantly works towards an improved understanding of these capricious spirits. Previously working for Aztechnology Magical R&D, Lake used his contacts to obtain unusual (and unauthorised) materials for his research, but his funding soon dried up when he was fired for abuse of company resources. Further problems arose when the surge altered his body while he was in the process of summoning a water elemental, irrevocably shifting his presence towards the Astral plane and his magical abilities towards water manipulation. To aid in this research, he is currently working for Mr Fowler as head of Magical R&D in the Seattle branch of Über Braun.

Ally Spirit: Lake originally summoned Faia expecting some kind of water-based spiritform, but instead got a condensed version of the fire-related side of his personality, complete with a competitive temperament and overtly innocent propensity for blowing things up. Faia is independent and inquisitive, and her constant drive to impress Lake and better herself encourages him to help her learn the destructive spells that she relishes using in combat. Sharing Lakes curiosity for magical research, Faia often works with (or against) him in the lab, fuelling their ongoing rivalry as they vie to outdo each other with ever-greater discoveries. Wanting all of Lake's attention for herself, Faia can become extremely jealous and confrontational around other females, especially Lake's Nymph-type Water Elementals, which she hates with a passion. Enjoying her new life on the physical plane, she has a tendency to get extremely drunk, semi-naked, and overly-sociable with Lake in an attempt to embarrass him.

| Water Elementals: Lakes first Water Elemental was conjured for some playful fun in his bathtub [^^]. Since then he has become somewhat attached to his elemental Nymphs and his summoning technique has been honed towards progressively more detailed female forms. To improve their abilities, Lake will often augment his elementals with sustained spells before combat and he continually tries to keep them around long enough to teach them something new. Lake is currently working on three Water Elemental archetypes; Sprites (Lvl 1-3 for general use), Nymphs (Lvl 4-9 for bodyguarding, combat, and 'company'), and Leviathans (Lvl 10+ for extreme combat).

| Character Notes: Lake often undertakes rigorous training to increase his willpower and concentration by standing under waterfalls in Japan, mainly so that he can also eat lots of sushi, drink Kirin beer, and take the girls out for trips to famous Onsen.
