If you are busily capturing efreet to milk them for wishes, they will attempt to screw you as hard as they can on those wishes and they SHOULD. I played a sha'ir in an Al-Qadim game for 5 years. I received many a wish from genies of all types during that campaign. I made my career freeing the genies from their lamps and bottles and they responded with untwisted wishes. Those who tried to command the imprisoned genies instead found that the genies were spiteful and twisted every wish they could.With regard to wish spells cast by a character however (or obtained from a ring or something), that is another story. I see no reason why such wishes should be twisted unless the character foolishly wishes for something that is really beyond the spell's scope since there is no intependent entity that is carrying out the wish.  Tzarevitch</blockquote>
