'''Imps''' are a race of troublesome pig-like creatures. Although Imps initially served the people of [[Gallowmere]] as their household servants, they eventually rebelled in 1286 by joining forces with the evil sorcerer [[Zarok]] during the [[Battle of Gallowmere]]. They continued to serve Zarok until his defeat in 1386 and continued to exist as a race up to at least the late 19th century where some Imps were part of [[The Freakshow|a freakshow]] in [[London]]. | '''Imps''' are a race of clever, troublesome and thieving pig-like creatures.

[[File:ImpMED2.png|thumb]] In 1886, some Imps were a part of a [[London]] [[The Freakshow|freakshow]]. When the freakshow's [[Ringmaster]] went missing however, the Imps started going crazy and began building an army of [[Standard Elephant-Bots|elephant bots]] to storm the city with. Their efforts were thankfully foiled by the resurrected Hero of Gallowmere [[Sir Daniel Fortesque]]. A few Imps later appeared at the [[Iron Slugger (level)|boxing match]] between [[Dankenstein]] and the [[Iron Slugger]] where they tried to hinder Dankenstein by tossing his lost limbs around outside the ring. | [[File:ImpMED2.png|thumb]] In 1886, some Imps were a part of a [[London]] [[The Freakshow|freakshow]].

Imps are generally not difficult enemies to dispatch. A few swings from one of Dan's swords or a blunt weapon like the [[Club]] or [[Hammer]] should finish them off fairly quickly. One only needs to be careful around their thieving variant who can carry Dan's weapon away and sell it off to a [[Merchant Gargoyle]]. | Imps are generally not difficult enemies to dispatch.

One should also avoid using ranged weapons against the Imps in The Entrance Hall as they are magically shielded against projectiles. | ||
