Profile

Origin

In pre-Islamic Arabian religion and folklore, the jinn (also spelled djinn or genie; singular: jinnī) were supernatural beings that coexisted alongside humans and animals. The term "jinn" is derived from the Semitic root جُنّ jann, meaning "to hide" or "to conceal," emphasizing their elusive and unseen nature in the mortal world. Arabs of the time considered jinn to be ethereal entities created in smokeless fire conjured by Allah, distinguishing them from humans shaped from clay, and angels, from light. Jinn could also interact with humans in various ways; some were seen as protectors, while others were deemed trouble-making or malevolent beings. Following the advent of Islam in the 7th century, jinn were reinterpreted in the Quran with a more nuanced and monotheistic perspective, having the 72nd chapter of the Quran named after them. Modern-day Islam considers jinn to have free will and to thus be held accountable for their actions, and they are subject to the same commandments as mankind.

Design

Jinn is a muscular humanoid figure with green skin, black hair tied into a ponytail, and a red teep on its forehead. It has gold hoop earrings and gold bracelets around its biceps, and its body fades into a shroud of smoke from the waist-down.

Its design in Devil Children White Book is much the same, except its skin is blue, a younger violet-skinned spirit wearing a crown accompanies it, and both figures emerge from a lamp.
