PFS StandardGennayn

Gennayns are minor genies who often serve as emissaries and messengers for greater elemental beings. While many find purpose in this humble mission, their true calling and interest is in the arts.

They often appear as miniature, athletic humanoids with wisps of elemental energy continually dissipating from their bodies. These elemental energies often reflect their emotions and attuned element. Gennayns are also fond of ostentatious rings, amulets, and armbands.

Gennayns eagerly assist powerful beings who reward and treat them well, but they're just as quick to abandon those they consider boring, stingy, or abusive. Beings who destroy artwork or mistreat artists will earn their eternal wrath.

Sidebar - Additional Lore Artistic Inspiration

Talented individuals often claim to have been inspired by otherworldly forces. As gennayns are known to share inspiration and develop talent, many scholars and artists believe their aptitude unknowingly benefited from a gennayn's attention. Others speculate that being in a gennayn's good graces can stave off bouts of artistic ennui—or that angering a gennayn is a direct path to creative doldrums. Gennayns themselves don't claim to be muses, merely beings drawn to talent.

Genie

Source Bestiary pg. 162
A unique type of genie exists for each Elemental Plane, and the bodies of genies are formed out of elemental matter corresponding to their native plane: djinn are formed from wind, clouds, and storms; efreet are fire made flesh; marids are beings of water; and shaitans are composed of metal, gems, and stone. Lastly, the jann are formed out of all four elements, and are the weakest of geniekind.

Genie Nobles

Genie nobles with titles unique to their kind (as detailed in each sidebar) rule genie society. Genie nobles are generally at least 5 levels higher than a typical example of their kind. In addition to the increased statistics afforded by their higher levels, genie nobles gain additional spells. But the most wondrous (and notorious) of a genie noble’s powers is their ability to grant wishes. Any genie noble (save for jann, who lack this power) can grant a mortal or undead creature up to three wishes within a year’s time. Many unscrupulous creatures compel genie nobles to serve them, tricking them or entrapping them with magic. However, once a genie noble grants a third wish to a single creature, they are freed from service to that creature forever.
