Djanni

 

Djanni are most oft desert dwelling offshoots from nomadic or tribal cultures which come into frequent contact with earthbound genies. Half-jinni are the result of a union between humans and one of these outsiders. They tend to be dignified and prideful, and usually blend in pretty well with either their human and their jann cousins. Half-jinn are quite very rare, due to the fact that conception between the two races is rarely successful.

Ability Cost Notes
Agile 10 +1 AC
CON Save Bonus 5 +1 per 5 WIS on all CON saves
Illusion 5 The character can create realistic 3D images, sounds and smells of anything the person can imagine anywhere within line of sight with a radius of 2 metres per WIS +5 per level. Although not physical images will look, sound and smell real to the victim. These Illusions can be mechanically detected and recorded by such means as photography or television. The Illusion can take any size or appearance the character desires and is limited only by his imagination. The Illusion can be a realistic simulation, a fanciful creation direct from the character's mind, or an abstract display of light. The character is playing with light itself and can create anything that is visible. Since most people depend on vision to gain information on their surroundings, this power presents the awesome ability to apparently alter the nature of reality. The character can cast his Illusions anywhere though he must be able to clearly see the area where the Illusion is formed if he wants to make it at all realistic
