Which level 1 monster do you like the most in Heroes of Might and Magic V?

Aaa... yeah, I think it says something like that – that the effect only applies to enemy creatures, and the hero isn't affected, right? Then they're useless.
P.S. What happened to the status effects? Everything seems fine now...

They increased the status effect level by one, and everyone's status dropped.
Imps are weak; devils are better. But Dryads are even better; I want to see nymphs, maybe they have better stats, or maybe they're just visually different.
