Ashadieeyah bint Khalid
The Sultana Ashadieeyah bint Khalid✝ is the ruler of the jabali1 genies. She lives in the Rainbow Metropolis of the Opaline Vault, capital of the Peerless Empire on the Elemental Plane of Earth. She has golden skin. The mining and mercantile interests in the Opaline Vault are efficiently managed by the sultana; each craft guild's shuyookh2 serves her.3
She has ruled the jabalis for 500 years, since her father was killed by ifrits4 from the Plane of Fire. Under her rule, the jabalis have prospered, and have developed trade routes to the Plane of Water. However, her abiding goal is the destruction of ifrits. All of the jabalis' wealth is spent making weapons and hiring mercenaries for war on ifrits, and her foreign policy centres around gaining allies in the conflict—from mercenary janns to fire scamps.56
It is whispered that she needs to win the war soon, otherwise jabali society will collapse under the strain of the war effort.6
