Description

Demons are creatures of the lower planes of existence, but they are occasionally encountered in places where they have been enslaved to serve as guardians by powerful Magic-users or Chaotic Clerics. The more intelligent varieties might also be interrupted while carrying out plots of their own. There is no meaningful game distinction between demons and devils.

These tiny devilish creatures are red or black in skin color with cat-like eyes, long pointed tails and bat-wings. They are the lowliest of demons and often serve as slaves to greater demons or servants of powerful evil clerics and magic-users. Imps are immune to non-magical weapons and fire and can cast Detect Magic at will and Invisibility once per day – both as a magic-user. Their tail has a moderately powerful poison which can kill if a saving throw is not successful, though the victim receives a +4 bonus to their roll.
