Common cerapicta hatchlings are carefree and playful, always up to building something. Be it a castle made out of sand decorated with colorful pebbles, or intricate hideouts made out of algae, these hatchlings always put their creativity to good use. They can easily get lost while collecting rubble for their small structures and often spend a lot of time gathering more and more things on their way to their homes. Because of this, they are not too skilled at hunting for their own meals. The hatchlings are very dependable on the adults and expect to be fed by them regularly. Water magic comes naturally for them, and the young cerapicta will sometimes use it to demolish recently built sandcastles if they are not pleased with the result.
Known for their vividly colored bodies, common cerapicta are small, zealous creatures found in freshwater ponds. Adapted to the pond climate and the lack of starfish, the common cerapicta feed exclusively on parasites. Along with keeping the other pond residents free of parasites, the common cerapicta also take it upon themselves to keep the area clean of any rubble. Using water magic, they push and pull things around to their liking, and on some occasions, they even move other creatures. Whilst small in size, the cerapicta are brave creatures. Barely reaching five centimeters in height, they will take on creatures that are up to six times bigger than them, knowing they can count on their potent water manipulation abilities. Magis who travel wide masses of water consider them useful companions. If given enough treats, a group of common cerapicta can be trained to push and even power small vessels.
