A nymph, while not a strong attacker, is nevertheless a very dangerous monster. Nymphs may be water nymphs, wood nymphs, or mountain nymphs. The main danger of nymphs is that they will charm/seduce you and steal items. They are hit-and-run artists. They can and will use even the most powerful items against you.

Nymphs often carry mirrors and potions of object detection. Because they carry mirrors, it is not a good idea to zap them with wands of striking or with spells of force bolt because the mirrors will often break resulting in a luck penalty.

Water nymphs

These sometimes ambush you from fountains.
