It is an attempt at a cryptic clue. I'm not sure if it's very good.

nope.
Either I actually managed to come up with a fairly difficult clue or I'm moshing cryptic clue rules together hopelessly. I'm going to hope it's A.

Littlemanpoet, whose nickname when shortened to lmp looks a little devilish?

Yay! Since littlemanpoet does not capitalize his own name, when you take the initials ("first" was supposed to indicate this) it is lmp, which looks like imp, a "little devil".
Your thread, Sauce. But first, a request for advice: how could this clue have been improved? I'm really trying to learn how to solve and write cryptic clues...and I thought this one was very straightforward, which makes me wonder if I didn't write it properly.
