Imp is a creature in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire.
Description[ | ]
Imps are troublemakers and vagabonds. As they neither protect a den for long nor concern themselves overmuch with feeding, they prefer to spend their days seeking out passing adventurers or animals to satisfy their amusement. This is where the imp's nefarious character comes into play, as "amusement" covers a broad variety of potential nuisances: exuding toxic gasses, creating apparitions of other kith, teleporting, stealing and generally doing harm to the unlucky victim. Wizards and other intellectuals have managed to bind imps to their service with mixed results. They can serve as spies, thieves, or in rare cases assassins, though their loyalty may go no further than recognizing an opportunity to do what they do best.

Trivia[ | ]
- Imps' speech is represented in capital letters only. They also tend to prefer short sentences.
- The imp in The Dark Cupboard (aptly named "Shop Imp") claims that imps have a very keen sense for smell and implies that imps' habit of smearing body liquids on their environment is simply a means of orientation.
