Djinn tribes and Christianity

The Djinn are seen by most Christians as minions of the Devil or of the Muslims, whom many Christians wrongly believe are allies of Satan as well. A number of Djinn have fallen in both Al-Andalusia and in Outremer to Christian priests and warriors. For the most part, the Muslim Djinn will actively unite with their mundane co-religionists against incursions by Christians, unless bad blood exists between the Djinn lord and this or that emir. Recent news from a Jerbiton stronghold near Antioch suggests that at least one Djinn has adopted Christianity(!), and has been a great aid in the defense of the covenant.

In most cases, Djinn are treated as diabolic at worst and and dangerous at best by Christian communities and individuals aware of them. Evil Djinn often use this belief to create fear and misconceptions against Djinn who have made the choice of Islam.
