Description
Ishmael is a member of the ancient race of shape-shifters known as the djinn. When he is touched by a mortal, it ignites a psychic conduit that bombards him with that person's deepest desires and urges, sexual and otherwise. Once privy to these unspoken longings, he is compelled by deep-rooted instinct to turn them into reality.

Maddened by this need to fulfill the secret appetites of others, which makes him feel like a slave to every human he encounters, Ishmael has become the most solitary of follets. In order to avoid mortal contact, he prefers to go about at night rather than during the day. When he does find himself in the company of mortals, he frequently takes an animal shape, usually that of a dark gray cat or a blue rock thrush. He also has the power of invisibility, to which he resorts from time to time. Ishmael is incapable of lying to humans, but he can refuse to answer a question.

There is much about Ishmael that is shrouded in mystery, given how taciturn and reclusive he is. His precise age is unknown, although it is likely that he is venerable by human standards. He fled his homeland, somewhere in the Unapproachable East, more than two thousand years ago, probably closer to three, for reasons that he has never shared with anyone. At some point in the last few centuries, he took up residence in Sinfar, more precisely, the local woodland area, where he was safeguarded and shielded by the local druids. Ishmael is dark and brooding in both appearance and temperament, although slow to anger and more thoughtful than reactive.
