Imps are amongst the smallest creatures in Gielinor. They are central in the Imp Catcher quest due to their unique bead drops. Sometimes, an imp may disappear into a puff of smoke and teleport a short distance away. At level 71 Hunter players may catch imps with magic boxes, including imps found in the God Wars Dungeons.

Trivia

• The standard variant of imps had a festive override wearing a white partyhat during the 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 Christmas events. The hunter icon also had the override for the events from 2016-2019.
