Djinn Bottle

A specially prepared bottle or other vessel is required in order to safely house an air djinn. Such containers appear in.

Description
The mage Zoranthus had worked for some time to perfect a method of binding air elementals into physical containers, and was able to impart knowledge of this process to the Avatar during the hero's journeys in the Pits of Carnage. The sorcerer would also make the Avatar a gift of an already bound djinn after bringing him a scepter which had been lost by one of his colleagues on the ethereal plane.

The Avatar would eventually assume the spirit housed in this bottle by performing the ritual Zoranthus taught. This required bathing in a mixture of filanium-rich mud and basilisk oil and to be subjected to temperatures hot enough to fire the mud upon the hero's skin. Then by imbibing a potion of Iron Flesh as protection from the airy daemon and breaking the bottle provided by the sage on the Sigil of Binding, the djinn was forced to inhabit the Avatar's form.

Trivia

 * Should the Avatar lose Zoranthus' bottle, the magician can be asked for a replacement. Another djinn bottle may also be found in the treasure area associated with the purple zone of the Ethereal Void.
