* ''[[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Harry Dresden]]'' has Bob, a spirit of intellect trapped in a skull. Now, it's been repeatedly noted that spirits of intellect can be ''very'' terrifying at the wrong times, but as far as Bob's concerned, in Harry's hands, he's pretty much just the helpful - if incredibly snarky - sidekick who also happens to have a thing for sex.

is that they have zero impulse control, and so play pranks because of an obsessive compulsion. They're also traditionally said to exercise just enough restraint to play pranks that cause no real harm, although that can change very quickly if an imp happens to be put into a bad mood.
