Marids

Marids was a type of djinn, the greatest of them, combining the physical power of the Ifrits with the mystical abilities of the jann. They used to manifest in a humanlike body of enormous size and noble bearing. Marids were once worshipped as gods by primitive and superstitious humans. Only the mpst powerful sorcerers would attempt to bind a marid with Name Magic, as these proud beings took painful revenge when they ever broke free.
