Darkling

Darklings are devious imps that have garnered enough favor with the dark lords of the Abyss to become slightly more powerful demons. Wizards who summon a large number of imps for servant work will often summon a darkling as a kind of demonic foreman. They behave similarly to their impish cousins, but with a sense of arrogance arising from their mildly improved position on the demonic hierarchy. In reality, being promoted to darkling is more ceremonial than anything, usually happening when a greater demon has grown tired of the constant pestering they receive from ambitious imps.
