Description

Merchant Imps, also known as Mercantile Assistant Imps, are the Fomorian Imps responsible for running the item shop at the various Mercantile Posts of Uladh as a part of the Commerce system.
They sell various items in exchange for Ducats, including Fomor Weapons and Pet House Blueprints, as well as acting as managers for Wine Making.

The Merchant Imps despise Bandits and will pay a hefty sum for Bandit Badges.

Their Irian counterpart are the Iria Trade Association.

An Imp known only as the Trade Assistant Imp - who looked identical to Neru of Tir Chonaill - used to accompany players on their Commerce travels, but as of the Great Era of Commerce update this is no longer the case.

Shop

  • Note: the limited offers in the Assistant Imp's shop vary from channel to channel.

Trivia

  • All of the Imp names except Sena seems to end with a u sound. (e.g. ru, gu, ku, etc.)
    • Similarly, the Imp that drives the Scooter Imp pet is named Daru.
  • According to the Bandit Badge description, the Imp is male. However, it is unknown which Imp it is specifically referring to, or whether all Imps are male.
  • There seems to be two different Trade Assistant Imps: one that manages the shop and one that supposedly travels with the player. The Merchant Imp says "I wish I could see the world..." while the Traveling Imp says "I want to be rich! My dream is to run my own bank.", suggesting the two are not the same.
  • A similar Imp can be seen in the Erinn Martial Arts Competition announcing the opposing teams.
  • The Imps Neru and Nunu appear in the Snowball Fight Event (2012).
  • The Imp says it does not like Goblins for an unspecified reason and hates Ogres for being dirty, despite the fact that the Imp works with them.
  • The Trade Assistant Imp says that the Falias Artifacts found in the Merchant Imp's shop were actually stolen from Falias.
  • Strangely, it is not possible to talk to a Trade Assistant Imp while logged in as a Lava Walker Imp, Jungle Scout Imp, or Warp Imp pets despite belonging to the same race. This is due to their function as pets, which are incapable of talking to non-animal NPCs.
