Imp (Herm)

Muttly imps are small, brown animate entities that are found only in Hades.

They are "knee high", flat-footed, round and bounce like rubber. They have huge dark eyes.

Imps are not demons or related species. They are manifestations of hell's 'mind' and act as servitors, drones, repair mechanisms or antibodies. They occasionally make chittering and squeaking noises; they have never been reliably reported to talk or pay any attention to passers-by - whether demon, hellhound or other. It is rumoured that the demon king can control them, but that isn't the case.

Imps are one of the most obvious throwbacks to one of Mutt's cardinal formative influences: the Bullfrog game Dungeon Keeper.
