In 2019, while running away from one of the [[Queen of the Black Market]]'s [[Wraith]]s in the [[Interdimensional Black Market]], [[Darius]] and [[Tracker-764]] “duck[ed] under the legs of an enormous [[Gryphon (Misadventures in the Interdimensional Black Market)|Gryphon]]” before “brush[ing] past a gang of imps attempting to swindle [[Sheep (Misadventures in the Interdimensional Black Market)|an old sheep with glasses]] out of her wallet”.

At least [[Universe (The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids in Oz)|one version]] of the [[Land of Oz]] was home to a trio of mischievous imps known as [[Olite]], [[Udent]] and [[Ertinent]]. [[The Phonograph]] described them as “like [[Nome]]s, but smaller, and with no beards”, their hair shaped “like two horns on their heads”. They each wore a belt of a different metal, which seemed somehow tied to their identity, as the metals were altered when the Imps were made nicer by being hit by [[Cupid Arrow]]s (Olite's buckle turned from tin to silver, Udent’s turned from brass to gold, and Ertinent’s turned from lead to aluminum). These imps previously worked for the [[Wicked Witch of the South]], [[Blinkie]], but were turned into buttons for a number of years by [[the Wizard of Oz]]. After the enchantment wore off, they briefly resumed working for Blinkie before they were romanticised and apologised for their misdeeds, helping to repair [[Acquaintanceship-982]] after he was injured in a Fog Ship crash.

The term could also be used as an insult. [[Jenny Nowhere (38167th Universe)|Jenny Nowhere]] once called [[Sophie Everytime (38167th Universe)|Sophie Everytime]] an “insufferable little imp”.
