'''Genies''' were supernatural creatures in early pre-Islamic Arabian and later Islamic mythology and theology. | |||
According to the genie [[Al-Zalam]], genies were often trapped in lamps, which was bad for them and their skin.{{Gameref|MPSP}}{{Gameref|MPSP|Dan's Crypt|author=Al-Zalam|quote=We genies, usually we are trapped within the lamps. That is bad - and very oily for the skin...}} They were also allergic to cats, which led to "strokes of the cat" becoming a punishment for lying genies.{{Gameref|MPSP|Dan's Crypt|author=Al-Zalam|quote=You imply that I lie? In my culture, that would earn you fifty strokes of the cat. And we are allergic to cats, so that is a terrible punishment…|id=1}} | |||
==History== | |||
It was said that a genie called [[Al-Zalam]] inhabited the head of [[Sir Dan]] after the evil sorcerer [[Zarok]] trapped him in there. Whether this is true is disputed. | |||
