Description
A djinni is a male humanoid about ten feet tall, with darkly tanned skin and a black beard.
Comments
If a djinni is discovered on this plane it will either be in the service of some character or else be trapped in some sealed container. If the container is opened, the djinni will service whoever released it as a slave, provided that it is not asked to do anything suicidal. Having a djinni in a party can occasionally cause problems because other creatures, such as efreet (who are deadly enemies of the djinn) will be attracted to the party.
Abilities
A djinni has all the abilities of an air elemental summoned by a magician with Rank 8 in the Ritual of Summoning Air Elementals. In addition, djinn can create matter weighing up to 200 pounds. This ability can be used once per day. The material created will have varying permanence, depending upon its solidity. Wood, cloth and other light materials will last for as long as a week, while steel, gold, or other hard substances will last only for hours.
Djinn can only be harmed by magical weapons.
