Morphology
hydromancer = hydro + mancer
The fantasy sense still relies on the clear water prefix, but the element '-mancer' is genre-specific jargon, so the meaning is only weakly inferable from form.
Etymology
Hydromancer comes from the parts hydro- 'water' (as in hydrate) and -mancer 'one who practices magic' (as in necromancer). In fantasy and games a hydromancer is a character who uses water as their magic or power.
