AI Description

Damascus Steel. Level 75. Ifrit.
Assistant lead dancer at the Penis Parade.
The closer one gets to the world of Sheol on the 15th floor, the more demons one might find leaking out into the regular world, especially in places that haven’t been cleansed in a while. And by “cleansed,” I mean in a biblical sense.
An ifrit is like a cockroach or a rat, though usually a lot sexier and more entertaining than either of those. And smart. And cunning. And they usually smell, good, too, which is weird considering how they look. Where there is debauchery, there are usually demons. Where there is sin, there are Ifrit. Unlike a succubus or incubus, who are inordinately obsessed with sex, an Ifrit is more attuned to the aura of lust and sin and envy and greed and all those other nasty iniquities that spill over the world. That doesn’t make him good or bad, any more than a guy who jacks off to granny porn is bad. Actually, I’m not sure where I’m going with this. Try not to get into a fight with this guy because he’ll fuck you up.
He, interestingly, has the exact same elbow tattoo as you. ^[1]

Appearance

He is a type of sin-attuned demon called an Ifrit. His skin feels metallic to the touch but he appears to have normal skin. He is middle aged but is large and well toned with pointed ears, close cropped hair and Arabic features.

His eyes are completely white with no pupil, and he has two short horns on his head. His body seems fuzzy around the edges as if it is constantly going in and out of focus. Smoke rises from his skin, hair, and from his eye sockets.

He has old faded tattoos on his arms and a spiderweb pattern on his left elbow. On his chest is a tattoo of an anatomically correct heart with bat-like demon wings. He wears an open embroidered vest and wavy wide Aladdin style pants.^[1]
