The efreet would be the dominant race and other standards, like the azer, would be remade in more of an Arabian mold. The entire plane would be remade into caliphates and emirates and the like.All genies would be here (and I would get rid of the Anglicized "genie" and "djinn" meaning two different things, probably by giving a new name to the latter), or in the skies above, in the mountains that border the desert or along the massive river that runs along its center.There would be the ruins of ancient pharoanic progenitor races, including ancient pyramids, terraced cities, giant monoliths covered in ancient laws and the like, but the primary focus would be on flying carpets, sinister viziers and clever peasants. I would also have lots of mortals (what 2E would have called "primes") living at the bottom of the social structure in the genie realms as slaves and barely free peasants.I would keep all the Arabian flavor in just this one plane and go very different directions with Earth, Water and Air.</blockquote>
