Flying
At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a creature other than this creature.
Subservience to greater power is the only law in the pit.

Rulings
If you control no other creatures, you won’t sacrifice anything.
If Demonic Taskmaster leaves the battlefield after its ability triggers but before it resolves, you’ll still have to sacrifice a creature. Notably, if you control two Demonic Taskmasters and no other creatures, each one will force you to sacrifice the other.
