(#83) Moomin and the Lying President of Hawaii | Moomin - "The Imp"

@jex101 as The Imp @coopsiedaisies-7171 as Sniff

Not much is known about the origins of this magic creature, myths say that he was trapped in a cave called Imp's Rest since the 15th century, but his real location is uncertain as of yet, if there really is a real, tangible place he is, if he was even real.

What we can gather from records is that he was a trickster sort, cruel and unusual. He played games and tricks on anyone who would come across him, he would frequently lie and promise to do good but never does and he has the power to turn other creatures into imps or other animals.

He was a great and powerful entity and everyone feared him for a very long time, he was a common figure in alot of medieval folklore and art and was rather widespread in Europe. One story told about how his reign was brought to an end when a group of magicians managed to capture and made him temporarily powerless by tricking him into drinking a magic wine. He whined and pleaded that he would do good for the rest of his life but since his captors could read his mind, they couldn't be tricked by him. The magicians decided to trap the Imp in a cave for his misdeeds forever, that cave became known as Imp's Rest.
