Ifrit

From TheBestLinks.com

(Redirected from Afrit)

Ifrit, also spelled efreet, also ifreet, afrit, are a kind of Jinn from Arabic mythology. Supposedly the Jinn are broken in to five classes, each more powerful than the last. These classes are jinn, jann, ifrit, maryut, and shaitan. This typology, though widely used in fantasy stories and role playing games appears to be of European origin and has no real basis in Arabic lore.

In the Final Fantasy video game series, an ifrit is a demon of fire, summoned to aid the characters in battle.
