ELEMENTAL WEIRDS
Elemental weirds are serpentine creatures composed of their element. The more intelligent ones tend to be prophets, but the smaller, savage weirds are simple predators. A weird is bound to its elemental pool.
SAVAGE WATER WEIRD--- Level 2 Lurker
A savage water weird appears as a serpent in a pool, fountain or other body of water. It attempts to drag targets into its pool and drown them.

[Melee basic] Serpent’s Grab (standard; at will): Reach 3; +5 vs. Fortitude; 2d6+3 damage and target is grabbed (until escape).
[Melee] Pull of the Waters (minor; at will): Only when the water weird has a target grabbed; +5 vs. Fortitude; the target is pulled 1 square towards the pool. If it is pulled into the pool, the water weird may attempt to use it Drown ability.
[Melee] Drown (standard; at will): Only when the water weird has grabbed a target that is in its pool of water; +5 vs. Fortitude; Hit: target loses one healing surge, is immobilized underwater and must hold its breath (see DMG 159); if it has no remaining healing surges it loses hit points equal to its level; Miss: the target is immobilized underwater and must hold its breath.

Brilliant idea!
I have to leave them at 3rd level- it's in my contract- but how's this, I'll skip ahead and do them as my next monster, perhaps tonight after work!

Another interesting thing about shocker lizards is their team attack Lethal Shock, this implies some of them could make excellent minions or leaders.
I am looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
