Nymphs and Oceanids are the level 1 creatures of Cove. They can be recruited from the Nymph Waterfall.
"Nymphs and Oceanids are among the many inhabitants of Plane of Water where they serve as spies and messengers for Acwalandar, Lord of Water. However, some of these water spirits grew tired of endless planar wars between the Elemental Lords and decided upon exploring the material world, only to find themselves in further servitude to Regnan mages, who found these poor water spirits useful in bolstering their armies." Adapted from HotA Facebook post.
"The most intriguing members of the Regnan community are the nymphs. These creatures of an entirely magical nature serve the pirates. It is believed that nymphs are distant relatives of fairies originating from the Plane of Water. One can reasonably argue about their affinity with fairies, but there is no doubt that they hail from the Plane of Water. Most likely, they are something like lesser water elementals. One of the first, strongest mages of Regna was able to bend these creatures to his will. Nymphs are not prisoners in our world; many of them come here of their own free will, especially in places where the borderline between the planes of existence is thin. However, most of the nymphs who serve pirates are summoned, and this is done with the help of ancient, powerful conjurations. The peculiarity of these creatures is that they are not afraid of death. A nymph killed in our world is reborn in the Plane of Water. The only way to utterly destroy her is to first travel to the other side of existence. They do not make for a significant force in battle, so the captains mostly use the nymphs as scouts.
Some pirates strive to find out how different nymphs are from human women. Hmm! This has never piqued my own interest. Come to think of it, a nymph, allegedly made up of water, should be much cleaner than your regular Regnan wench... Bah! Gods only know where such thoughts can take one! I shall only note here that one can often hear stories about the "uncle of the brother-in-law" of someone, who had allegedly married a nymph." --

User Commentary
Oceanids are tied with Centaur Captains for second-fastest tier 1 creature. They can be used as blockers and for kiting in the early game. Low health and a lack of relevant specials prevent them from being useful for much else, however. They are usually victims of Arrow towers during sieges.
