Special: Jaffar is functionally immortal and surprisingly tough to hurt. He has 2/2 armour at all times as well as complete immunity to diseases and toxins.

	Any Djinn who believes himself to be immune the best efforts of “powerless short lived humans” need only meet Jaffar to cure himself of the delusion. Starting life as a starving thief Jaffar grew into a man who would steal a kingdom and his own mortality from Death’s cold hands. Though nowadays he has little cause to use them he’s forgotten none of his magic and none of his skills. If a Djinn pushes him hard enough he just might steal their freedom.		Any Djinn who believes himself to be immune the best efforts of “powerless short lived humans” need only meet Jaffar to cure himself of the delusion. Born into abject poverty in Bagdad, 913 AD, Jaffar was a weak child with a keen intellect and a habit of correcting anyone who he thought was wrong, a habit that earned him many beatings and few friends.

	Determined to rise Jaffar turned his wits and slight stature to pickpocketing, within a month he had paid some of the bigger street rats to teach a lesson to his tormentors. Within a year he was running his own gang. Within five he had saved enough to buy some stock and redefine himself as an honest law-abiding merchant. At trade Jaffar's quick mind again served him well, he quickly mastered the merchants arts and won the respect of his peers. For a while Jaffar was content.
