AKA Genies, Dust Devils, Jinns, or Wishmasters
Djinn are like human beings, they are both free-willed and can also be good, evil, or neutral.
Djinn's occupy a small parallel realm to that of mankind. A place they call '
Borkas'.
They are extremely magical beings able to grant wishes.
Guardian Djinn's are like priestess/priest, and they are guardians of the fountain of youth, the well of wonders, and magic mirrors. (Messing with guardian Djinn is a very bad idea, they will curse you to become a Sealed Djinn)
They typically take things very literally.
There are only 6 unbreakable djinn laws/rules. Braking these rules causes a Djinn to become Sealed.
1. You Cannot kill another Djinn
2. You cannot grant more then three official wishes a person.
3. You Cannot make people fall in love, or take away their free will.
4. You cannot grant a wish of raising the dead.
5. You cannot use your wish granting magic for yourself (this one has quite a bit of loop holes)
6. You cannot grant a wish to make someone die.
Djinn's should never ever drink Alcohol. It causes their magic to go wacky. They become rather wild, as their personally becomes unmanageable, and chaotic. There emotions are intensified a 100% and self control flies out the window. Crazy, until the alcohol wears off. A manic Djinn is not something you want to witness. Pompeii was caused by a drunk Djinn, and so was the Helike Tsunami and Earthquake.
Djinn's can bare children with any humanoid species/creature. You can only be born a Djinn if your mother is one. So if a Djinn woman and a witch man have a child, that child would be a Djinn, the same species as the mother. If a Djinn man and a Fairy woman have a child, the child would be a fairy.
Djinn's are extremely knowledgeable about all the different magics in the world.
They are made of smoke, but typically like to stay in their solid human looking form.
Djinn's age slower them humans. Five years in a human lifespan is equal to one Djinn year. Djinns are mortal. There first five years of life are accelerated as the grow up just as fast as a human, but once they reach five years old there aging slows. So an eleven year old Djinn is the equivalent of a seven year old human. A thirty-five year old Djinn is a equivalent to a twelve year old human. ---PM me if you need help with the ageing.
POWERS - They can fly/float, turn invisible, grant wishes, teleport, change their size, control smoke, eidetic memory, shape shift, and can speak/read/write all languages.

Bound, Unbound, Free, Cursed, and Sealed
Bound - Djinn's become bound to a receptacle (usually a genie lamp/bottle), when a Dijinn's powers fully manifest, between the ages of 20-35 years old. The receptacle becomes a personal portal between 'Borkas' and all other realms. Though the receptacle cannot reside in 'Borkas', so they are hidden/kept in a different parts of our world.
Free - A free Djinn is one that has yet to become bound and gain their full power. These are the young Djinn.
Sealed - Guardian Djinn's can curse any humanoid species to become a sealed Djinn. For regular Bound Djinn If their receptacle is found and rubbed by a human, the receptacle becomes a prison of sorts to the Djinn, which they cannot leave without the certain events happening (rubbing the lamp, command from their master, etc). They are sealed, the portal ability does not work any longer, and the Dijinn becomes a servant/slave to the person who obtains the receptacle. The Dijinn stops ageing, and gains semi-immortality when sealed. They grant there master three wishes and they are stuck in the receptacle until another new master comes along, and this goes on and on for centuries. If a Djinn brakes one of the Djinn laws, they automatically become sealed. There are only three ways out of being sealed.
1 - The master wishes you free - Doing this turns the Djinn back to bound.
2 - The Master wishes to be a Genie - The master takes the place of the Djinn. The Djinn becomes Unbound. The Master becomes a sealed Djinn.
3 - The receptacle is destroyed. - To destroy a receptacle is almost impossible. The Djinn becomes Unbound.
Cursed - Are not originally of the Djinn species. They have been cursed by Guardian Djinn. Turning them into a Sealed Djinn. If one of the three ways
out of being sealed happens they return to whatever they once were (Human, werewolf, Fae, witch, etc.) and are transported back to wherever they came from.
Unbound - Djinn's that have become unbound from their receptacle loose a great amount of their power, and become mortal again.
