Djinns are elemental entities that live across the Mortal Realms. Many of the known varieties of Djinn are associated with elements such as fire, metal, and wind. While others are associated with environments, such as the swamp-dwelling Mire-Djinn.[1a][1b][1c][3a]

Ecology

Use By Other Races

During the Time of Tribulations Bright Wizards of Hammerhal used Djinn and powerful Aqshian curses to bind a massive fiery inferno, that they planned to unleash on scorpion-locusts and death's-head moths that were ravaging the farms of Hammerhal Ghyra. Despite the sudden attack by a spctral host, the inferno is unleashed and the insects destroyed.[2a]

Each Hellfire Sword used by the leaders of Ravager Hordes was made from a searing flame that was quenched in the blood of a Fire-Djinn.[4a]

Known Varieties

  • Fire-Djinn: A variety of Djinn associated with fire known to reside in the Great Parch.[1b]
