Your origin as a Djinn marks you as an elemental creature. You count as an Elemental for the purposes of spells and abilities that affect Elementals. You may gain resistance or vulnerability to effects that interact with elemental origin (at DM’s discretion). While your form appears mortal, your soul remains tied to a plane of elemental power.

Ability Score Increase.

When determining your character’s ability scores, you can increase one score by 2 and another by 1, or three different scores by 1. You can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Though once an elemental spirit, your current form is composed of mortal flesh—fragile, but functional.

You require food, water, air, and rest like any humanoid. You can be poisoned, exhausted, or rendered unconscious. You experience pain, fear, and fatigue, and can be killed through physical or magical means. However, your soul remains tethered to your Vessel.

If your body is destroyed, your soul retreats into the Vessel. You cannot take actions or speak, but you remain aware of your surroundings. A creature holding your Vessel can restore you using magic that returns a soul to life (such as resurrection, true resurrection, or wish). If the Vessel is destroyed, your soul is lost forever.

Your Vessel is a physical object forged from your own elemental essence. It may take many forms, such as a piece of ornamental jewelry, an oil lamp, a sealed urn, or even a simple stone. The Vessel is virtually indestructible and always returns to you or your master’s possession if lost. The Vessel may only be reclaimed if willingly offered, or if the one holding it dies. When a mortal touches it, you are compelled to offer it, and once held, they gain command over your form. While holding the Vessel, they cannot control your thoughts—but they can direct your actions with verbal commands, which you cannot refuse.

 The Vessel cannot be destroyed by Conventional means, but it is susceptible to powerful reality warping magic and spells.

You are magically linked to an object—a Vessel—that compels obedience. You cannot directly disobey verbal commands given by a creature currently holding your Vessell.

This trait is narrative in nature and intended to reflect the Djinn’s binding rather than act as a domination mechanic.

You may cast Prestidigitation as a cantrip. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for it.

At 3rd level, you can seal a mundane object, such as a door or container. As an action, choose a target within 30 feet. That object becomes magically sealed until the start of your next long rest. Only creatures you name at the time of sealing can open it normally; all others must succeed on a Strength check (DC = 8 + your Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus) to force it open.

At 5th level, once per long rest, you may shape raw materials (such as sand, wood, or cloth) into a nonmagical object no larger than 3 feet in any dimension. The object cannot contain moving parts, intricate mechanisms, or magic, and lasts until broken, dismissed, or you use this feature again.

These effects reflect the quiet remnants of your power—echoes of the wonders you once created.

You cannot disobey direct verbal commands or small wishes issued by a creature currently holding your Vessel.

You may, however, interpret commands and wishes within reasonable boundaries unless the command is precise, absolute, or magically enforced.

If a command would compel you to cause harm to yourself, someone you care for, or violate your core principles, you may attempt a Charisma, Wisdom, or Constitution saving throw (your choice, chosen when you gain this feat) against a DC of 15. On a success, you resist for 1 minute, though you may not act in direct opposition to the command.

“Bring me her head” may mean “defeat her,” “remove a statue’s head,” or acquire a “painted portrait”—unless the command is exact, the Djinn may choose the outcome.

Once per campaign, and once you reach level 15, when you are reduced to 0 HP or willingly sacrifice your essence (take 3 levels of exhaustion), you can cast any 8th-level or lower spell as if using a 9th-level slot, without material components. The spell must be beneficial to someone other than yourself.
