New Monsters for OSE and BX - Noble Genies

If you are not familiar with Dao, Jann, and Marid statistics please see my previous article here.

Noble genies are the ruling class of the genie world. Besides the Jann, most noble genies will not bother themselves to visit the mortal world. They prefer to stay in their own lands plotting the demise of other leaders and upping their own positions. Being of the noble class and “pure blood” they gain many powers beyond that of a standard genie often becoming akin to a demi-god. There are a few ways to become a noble genie; one is to be granted a title by the ultimate ruler of the planar kingdoms. Another is when a genie becomes bound to servitude by magical forces or a sahira, they gain the powers of a noble genie, but are bound to servitude. Lastly, a genie can try and gain followers in the mortal world that will worship them as a god. This is strictly forbidden and was the reason that King Suleiman made the laws against the interaction of genie and mankind. Even the bitterest rivalries will be put aside by genies in order to stop a rogue genie pretending to be a god. It is considered a myth that a genie with enough worshipers could rival in power that of Shaitan or the great Creator, but this is only a myth.
