History

The history of the Djin is a long and sordid one. After evolving to live on the plains above the deep forests, their most recent conflict revolved around the color of magic each Djin possesses. These wars lasted for several hundred years, and only recently has a peace been negotiated. There was once a caste system based on magic color, which some old Djin still refer to when thinking of who to listen to. From top to bottom, the system was as follows, Blue, Green, Silver, Orange, White, Black, Red, Indigo, Yellow, Pink ,Violet ,Brown While there is still some prejudice, it is less prevalent within those adventuring groups that delve into the deep forests, where a wide variety of skills has always been needed.
