Vodník je obvykle vyobrazován jako nevzhledný zelený mužík se širokými ústy, zelenými vlasy a vypoulenýma ocima, kterému kape voda ze šosu. Umí se promenovat v ruzná zvírata, nejcasteji v kone nebo vodní živocichy jako žábu, rybku, raka, ale i kocku, psa, kohouta nebo i bežné predmety jako bochník chleba, lucernu nebo vodní vír. Umí také ovládat vodní živocichy. Ke svým kouzlum potrebuje alespon kapku vody. Nejvetší sílu má ve svém živlu, pokud zacne schnout, velmi rychle slábne. Vodník rád jezdí na sumci.

Water sprite is usually portrayed as an unsightly green man with a wide mouth, green hair and bulging eyes, which water drips from the tails. Can transform into various animals, most commonly in horses or aquatic animals as frog, fish, crayfish, as well as cat, dog, rooster, or even everyday objects such as a loaf of bread, a lantern or whirlpool. It can also control aquatic animals. For his magic he needs at least a drop of water. The greatest strength is in his element, if it starts to dry very quickly fades. Water Sprite like riding a catfish.
