An imposing, muscular figure engulfed in a cloud of searing flame.

“When the hoopoe returned to Solomon (he told him the news), and he responded (to Sheba’s people): “Are you giving me money? What GOD has given me is far better than what He has given you. You are the ones to rejoice in such gifts.” (To the hoopoe, he said), “Go back to them (and let them know that) we will come to them with forces they cannot imagine. We will evict them, humiliated and debased.” He said, “O you elders, which of you can bring me her mansion, before they arrive here as submitters?” One afrit from the jinns said, “I can bring it to you before you stand up. I am powerful enough to do this.”
-The Quran, Sura 27 Al-Naml

Useful Info

Efreets are fiery demons which wield flaming scimitars and hurl fireballs with no regard for other monsters. They leave trails of flame clouds behind them, making it somewhat difficult to maneuver around them. They can be found in the Depths, the Abyss, Pandemonium, and the Hells.
