Elemental Demise. If the djinni dies, its body disintegrates into a warm breeze, leaving behind only equipment the djinni was wearing or carrying.
Innate Spellcasting. The djinni’s innate spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 17, +9 to hit with spell attacks). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
At will: detect evil and good, detect magic, thunderwave
3/day each: create food and water (can create wine instead of water) , tongues, wind walk
1/day each: conjure elemental (air elemental only), creation, gaseous form, invisibility, major image, plane shift
Multiattack. The djinni makes three scimitar attacks.
Scimitar. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d6 + 5) slashing damage plus 3 (1d6) lightning or thunder damage (djinni’s choice).
Create Whirlwind. A 5-foot-radius, 30-foot-tall cylinder of swirling air magically forms on a point the djinni can see within 120 feet of it. The whirlwind lasts as long as the djinni maintains concentration (as if concentrating on a spell). Any creature but the djinni that enters the whirlwind must succeed on a DC 18 Strength saving throw or be restrained by it. The djinni can move the whirlwind up to 60 feet as an action, and creatures restrained by the whirlwind move with it. The whirlwind ends if the djinni loses sight of it.
A creature can use its action to free a creature restrained by the whirlwind, including itself, by succeeding on a DC 18 Strength check. If the check succeeds, the creature is no longer restrained and moves to the nearest space outside the whirlwind.
So.. it can't grant wishes?
No it can’t
A variant in the monster manual can
I’m pretty sure that lore wise, the more noble and powerful genies are the only ones that can grant wishes, but then again, if you’re a DM and anything else would work better, you could just homebrew it.
Can one of these grant wishes?
It says it can as a variant, but I think it should be part of the Djinni stat block.
if a PC goes Warlock Genie Patron at lvl 10 they get minor wish spells. Its only to have access to lvl 6 spells, but its still technically granting wishes? If that helps :)
Is that Matt Mercer's voice pronouncing "Djinni"?
Those red eyes sure don't make him look "chaotic good."
No they dont!
HAHA! love this monster
Very much agree!
Didn't this use to say something about a 10% change of casting the wish spell or something of the like before?
Maybe we caught him at a bad time and he's angry because he's been imprisoned in that brass gravy boat.
Joking aside, he sure does look quite menacing, yeah.
Djerma when?
That's a genie, not a djinni
It's a lamp
I'm so upset D&D Beyond deleted the Prince Ali stuff.
I'm imprisoning one in the "Luck Blade" for my players. They have no clue so I'm excited to cause chaos when they finally make their wish. My Djinni is going to be (rightfully) enraged and I look forward to corrupting their wishes.
NO SHORTCUTS IN MY CAMPAIGN! (tiny evil giggles)
Also, they're in Hell so there's already a theme of me corrupting fun stuff. I don't do it all the time, but enough to keep me entertained.
