Imps are amongst the smallest creatures in Gielinor. They are central in the Imp Catcher quest due to their unique bead drops. Every 30–120 seconds there is a 25% chance for an imp to 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 Dungeon.
