Yeah, basically there are two groups of jann in Zakhara usually: Jann of the SW High Desert ("House of Sihr", think the wondrous caravan kind, who've sworn loyalty to the Grand Caliph) & Jann of the NE Haunted Lands (the wild-eyed unpredictable and dangerous keepers of the desert wastes). Qaybar, City of the Jann, is my creation; it's based on bits and pieces alluded to in the AQ books, but mainly it's wholly my original idea. These jann, while they may have ties to the "House of Sihr" or the Jann of the Haunted Lands, have a very different lifestyle.Yes, that all sounds right to me. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I think given Salahuddin's close alliance with the djinn, he would know #1 and 2.Qaybar is known to many (including Sheikh Ali), but mostly as a story passed down by elders or a myth circulated by bazaar storytellers. It has been on Zakhara for a year or two now, located inland of the Pearl Cities. You can see its current location on this map (a zoomed in snapshot of the one I linked on the first page of all the AQ threads). Rob, the cartographer, included it here and I'm going with his placement; "Qaybar" is originally mentioned in DUNGEON #63's Blood & Fire adventure as a human town with no description - a generic Arabian-esque settlement that serves little more than being a plot hook / starting point. I've adopted the name and radically changed it as a City of the Jann that travels the Inner Planes and Zakhara in a mystical orbit.[SBLOCK=Map]<img src="http://i.imgur.com/Kh0tJsZ.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
