Imp

An imp is a minor non-Baatezu devil. They are weak devils and are typically Wizards' familiars. An imp has the ability of polymorph and a stinger on it's tail containing a deadly poison.

Imps frequently act as manipulators in mortal lands, tempting the greedy, gullible or foolish into Lawful Evil acts so as to corrupt them, ensuring a continuous supply of souls for their lords in the Nine Hells. While physically weak compared to some lesser Devil forms (those lower down the form hierarchy), lower Devils relish the chance to be promoted to Imp because successfully tempting mortals into evil is one of the surest paths to further promotions.
