How to spot an imp: Location

So, where are imps located [see below for looks-n-speech]? Imps are usually seen at night. They are usually found in clubbing districts in Atlantic Seaboard cities or in similar post-industrial fallout/urban renewal centers such as Chicago. If you were in New York, you would need to head downtown or to Brooklyn to see imps... although they could be anywhere at any time.

Subway stops are a great place to see imps. Look for them lurking around the turnstyles trying to get a free ride and/or causing havoc on the platform.









In London, a great place to see imps is down along Edgware Road.


This place is crawling with 24 hour kabob joints and shishas. Look for trixies and rude girls knocking about narguilas, harassing coal attendants and generally causing all sorts of havoc.
Imps will usually travel in packs on the subway or on the road.
Imps may or may not have boyfriends. If they do, rest assured that they will be here:


They'll be trying on trainers upstairs or touting hoodies out the door and getting into spats with the owners. Threats such as "What blood? I'll call me crew!" and "Feel free to hate, I ain't tryin' to be ur mate!" are empty and, more often than not, come from Dizzee Rascal lyrics.



Whilst their boyfreinds are trying on shoes, the imps will be here racking up exhorbitant prices on their credit cards and topping up their mobiles.





















If not there, they might be prowlin', checking out hottsies like this one:

Note: Imps are not all the same and their styles and manners and places where they hang out change from city to city. Other good locations to check in London are at Sainsbury's Local, where they will undoubtedly be in the accessories section, or alternately, checking out the crisps and the biscuits.
