New Deltasplash Bitties
Squid (Deltasplash Rouxls) Named for their ability to shoot ink at would-be predators, Squid bitties have dark blue fins that lighten to white near the ends. Squids can be somewhat vain, at least in terms of their appearance and their intellectual prowess, but not so much as to be unbearable. Their favorite snack tends to be worms, though they will (reluctantly) accept other soft-bodied bugs if there are no worms available. Squids also have the tendency to hoard cube-shaped objects like blocks, dice, and Rubik's cubes. They prefer said blocks to be made out of plastic, glass, acrylic, or resin as wood and water don't often mix very well. Though they might act indifferent, they do have a soft spot for younger bitties such as Guppy types.
Rat (Deltasplash Kris) With skills honed from having lived in water for so long, Rat bitties are easily the strongest swimmers amidst the non-monster 'Splash bitties. Able to hold their breath for up to three minutes and capable of swimming for up to forty hours on average though some have been able to clock in at fifty or sixty hours. They absolutely adore freshly-baked food, so watch out if one leaves a plate of cookies or a slice of pie too close to a Rat's tank because if left alone for any period of time, it is highly likely that they will steal a good portion of said snack for themselves. Rats tend to live up to their name in being scavengers, at least when it comes to food, though they might also collect things such as shiny coins and marbles.
Catfish (Deltasplash Seam) Known for spending their time lounging around (and occasionally bartering their collected treasures), Catfish enjoy making simple jewelry out of what they collect. This includes sea glass and pearls, as well as pretty rocks. Unlike other Deltasplash bitties, they thrive in saltwater environments and prefer to have at least one hideaway where they can set up shop, so to speak, and it's even better if said hideaway has a locking door to prevent anyone from stealing from them. They have a seemingly unending supply of small gold coins, though no one knows how they managed to acquire it and even if pressed no Catfish will ever reveal its origins, either changing the subject or (if someone really rubs them the wrong way) telling the offender to leave.
Koi (Deltasplash Noelle) With red and green fins befitting their holiday aesthetic, Koi bitties are quiet but unquestionably do their best in groups. They do not do well on their own and, though they are prone to getting bullied by bigger or more outspoken bitties, they find scarier things (up to and including other bitties) interesting and often attractive despite often being frightened. Koi bitties are very family-oriented albeit timid, but it's hard for anyone to find a bad word to say about them since they are always willing to lend a helping fin to those who might need it. They enjoy baking, even if they can't participate in it themselves, because they love the smell and of course being able to taste the finished product. Their favorite food tends to be cookies.
