A creeplet is a rare neutral monster that melee attacks entities that attack it, when it dies it explodes which can destroy blocks and cause massive amounts of damage.
It spawns naturally in Nether Wastes biomes, although it is very rare to find, as 5% of Zombie Hamaknockers/Zombie Creepork may be Zombie Creeplets.

A creeplet remains hostile toward the player or an iron golem as long as the light level immediately around the zombie creeplet is 11 or lower; otherwise, it does not attack unless attacked first. If a zombie creeplet pursues its target in an area where the light level is higher than 11, it returns to a neutral state. However, zombie creeplets pursue targets regardless of light level in retaliation to an attack.
They are immune to fire.
Using flint and steel on a zombie creeplet causes it to grow rapidly and explode immediately.
If provoked, all nearby Zombie Creeplet, Zombie Hamaknocker, and Zombie Creepork will defend it and retaliate against whoever attacked it.
It attacks in melee mode, causing 3 damage per hit and causing nausea for 10 seconds. However, when it dies, it explodes with the same power as a common creeper.
Charged Zombie Creeplet
Charged zombie creeplets are stronger versions of creeplets. They are distinguished from normal zombie creeplets by their blue aura surrounding them, and their explosion power is significantly increased.
A charged zombie creeplet is created when lightning strikes within four blocks of a normal zombieĀ creeplet.
