Most Marids are either classed Genies or start with eleven outsider hit dice. If they have the outsider hit dice, they still gain the telepathic and plane-shifting abilities of the Genie class. Instead of all of the other class features, their spell-like abilities improve to add detect evil, good, or magic (separate spells), invisibility, human form, polymorph self, and see invisibility at will, and control water, gaseous form, solid fog, and water breathing 5/day. They also gain Water Mastery, Drench, and Vortex as a Water Elemental. Also, their spell resistance improves to 15 + hit dice.
