> What was the Devil like, "Personality"-wise?
Absolutely insatiably Evil. The vilest possible "personality" you can imagine. Wakboth the Devil defiled the world and laughed while doing it. If he was a book, he'd be the Wasp Factory.
> Who were his followers?
Chaos filth: broos, depraved humans, krjalki scum, and shapeless Things That Should Not Be. Nobody you'd want to meet. Mind you, he ate them too for kicks.
> Are there any of these still around?
I'm pretty sure the Broos still love to hate Wakboth, but I doubt they'd get any tangible benefit (i.e. regular, useful Rune spells and the like) from doing so. Unless your ref comes up with something so awe-inspiringly EVIL that he can't resist unleashing it on you. As for me, I enjoy the thought of Gloranthan Devil-Worship so much that I'm sure it happens: think of the conception of Argin Terror, the Nightmare Sorcerer; or was anyone within earshot when Ken Rolston manifested as Wakibopheles in the Necromancer's Tower at Sog City Uni?
Incidentally, I'd recommend issue #3 of John Castellucci's "RuneQuest Adventures Fanzine" as having a wealth of material on the Block.

If it does, it'd probably be "Chaos"! I enjoyed that last posting a lot. Nice to know you appreciated the damage you were doing to my magnificent Empire! But were you implying my emperor-ing was in any way out of order? I thought I was acting exactly as a Dara Happan Emperor would have done, under the circumstances...
A myth explaining the origin of Dara Happan "impure thoughts" is tucked away inside the writeup of the Empty Emperor, FS p.11.
