Powers/Abilities: The Water God was a gigantic, sentient humanoid composed of water. It was able to form denser mass when about to strike and was "alive" only while its form was liquid. However, it was susceptible to freezing temperatures.

History:

(2099 Unlimited#3/1 (fb)) - On Earth-928 in 2076, the terrorists dubbed Monkey Wrenchers detonated the Eastern Californian fault lines, causing the Pacific Ocean to meet the Colorado River and making a moat-like barrier separating California from mainland America. Before they were eliminated, the terrorists dropped powerful electromagnetic transformers that gave form and power to the water, generating a sentient semi-humanoid with its sole mission to protect the water from humans.

(2099 Unlimited#3/1) - Years later, many refugees seeking to escape atomic tests tried to cross the canal to California and were rescued by Hulk 2099 from floating gun arrays. With the protective guns gone, the Water God rose to brutally stop the Hulk and the refugees. Hulk initially found it difficult to stop the liquid form of the Water God, so he lured it up into mountainous peaks where it froze into a solid mass. Hulk then smashed it into fragments.
