Demon Imp

Type: Demon

First appearance: Act V

Description: Centuries ago, when men were foolish and practiced the demonic magics, it was common to invoke lesser demons and subdue them in order to gain their power. Fooled by the Imps' small stature, sorcerers underestimated their powers and often summoned them to serve as familiars. Once lulled into trusting these clever and conniving demons, the master would find his will subjugated by that of his "servant," who would then vivisect him and create numerous homunculi from the pieces. In time, these homunculi would grow into other Imps. Aware that its size is a liability in battle, an Imp uses magic to teleport and attack an opponent at range, from a fortified tower position, or even while mounted on the backs of large beasts.

Tips and Behavior: Demon Imps Teleport (but do not Heal when Teleporting) and have a Fire based ranged attack.

Demon Imps can hop onto the backs of Siege Beasts or into Towers to cast Inferno. If you kill a Tower with a Demon Imp in it, the Demon Imp will be killed as well. However, if you kill a Siege Beast, the Demon Imp will Teleport away and still survive.
