Favors
Ambitions, Dreams, Hopes, and Wishes
General Information
The Lord of the Lamp and the Enslaver of Djinn is a passionate and hopeful god. He is guardian and creator of the Djinn race, and Lord of all Primordials. He protects and aids those who give in to their hopes and dreams, and strive to realize their ambitions. He is a very impassioned god, and tends to fiercely protect anything that would fall under his domain. While it is believed he does not care for many things that occur anywhere outside of Aujin, that is not true. He devotes more of his attention to Aujin, to ensure the Primordials don't affect the other realms, as much as they would prefer to.
Nearly all Djinn, revere him with a death-defying loyalty. The younger lived races also tend to become his followers far more often than the other races, most likely due to their want to realize their goals in their short lifetimes. Most other denizens of the realms will only recognize him when it comes to trying to achieve some outstanding goal they have. He is also the lover of Serr Tarra, and as such her followers tend to have a greater respect for him.
"Be careful what you wish for."
"Hope is the dream of a waking man."
"Ambition does not waver in the sight of failure."
- Common Phrases used by Followers of Andros Emehl
Opposition & Threats
It is believed that Andros Emehl may be able to affect and control the unexplainable nature of the Universe to a greater degree than that of any other deity. That single thought, paired with his Army of Djinn willing to follow his orders to the death, make him a formidable foe. His Djinn Army is constantly in war with Primordials that cannot be controlled, or with other Djinn that have broken their vow.
Occasionally, an obscure faction dedicated to one of the prime elements will arise, and contest the Lord's claim to dominion over the Primordials of that element. These contestations are typically short-lived and result.
Goals & Ambitions
They say that only Kasper Amon could meet Andros Emehl in terms of ambition. At any one point, Andros Emehl has hundreds of plans in the works in order to achieve his many different goals and dreams. His primary goal is to find a way to control the destructive nature of every Primordial by imbuing them with their own ambitions and dreams. Until then, his short term goal is to lock them out of the other realms in order to ensure a mutual safety for all. He currently is investigating the disappearance of Artesia in hopes that the magic used there will help him with this short term goal.
Followers & Organizations
While many pay respect and recognize the value in the Lord of the Lamp, his most devout followers (besides his Djinn Army) tend to be: adventurers yearning for glory, hopeful romantics, and those that wish to leave their own mark in the world.
The Djinnaree
The Djinnaree is a sub-sect of the Djinn Army of Andros Emehl. The Djinnaree have a perfect attunement with the living creatures in which they are bound. These soldiers are responsible for hunting down the Djinn that have broken their sacred vow with the Lord of the Lamp and have the ability to directly control either 2-3 prime elements, instead of just 1.
There is a simple saying that exists in the world, "Words have Power." This is never more true, than in the case of the Djinn of the Aujin. When in the presence of a Djinn, remember to be mindful of your wishes. You never know which Djinn wish to harm and which Djinn wish to help. Both can be equally terrifying.
