History

In pre-Islamic Arabian folklore, djinn (genie) had been demons in the wilds or pagan demigods. In Islam, they had been degraded to merely nature spirits, who can freely decide to submit to the laws of God or to oppose them. Jinn are mentioned in the Qur'an, wherein a whole Sura is named after them. They can be good or evil.

Profile

Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne

Jinn evolves into Efreet through leveling up.

Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE

"In Islam and pre-Islamic Arabian folklore, a djinn is a supernatural fiery creature which possesses free will. Djinn are mentioned in the Qur'an, wherein a whole Sura is named after them. They can be either good or evil. In some cases, evil genies are said to lead humans astray. In Islam, Satan, known in Arabic as Iblis, is the iconic genie that refused to bow down to Adam when ordered to by Allah."

—Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE compendium

Jinn appears as a miniboss during the Lord of the Flies quest. He can also be found in the Nakano Stone Site's silver instance.

Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth

"A spirit of wind and fire appearing in Arabian lore. It can transform at will and grant wishes to those who release it from its bottle or jar."

—Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth compendium
