Do Genies exist in Runeterra?

Been playing some Heroes of Might and Magic, and you get to use Genies and Efreeti among your forces in some of the games. Good times.

Would a being that's a Genie in all but name be something Riot might explore in the Shurima scene? And no, skins don't count.

If Riot were to implement a Djinn of some kind, I would hope they do it right. The Djinn are an incredibly compelling facet of Middle Eastern folklore, and Riot could do better to expand outside the Western/Far-East themes they have going so far.

Not sure if actual djinns exist,but I imagine that some djinn-like spirits could easily exist in runeterra.

Genies are demons or spirits, so maybe a luck spirit or a fortune demon would be called a "genie" ?

I dont understand the topic of this thread, is it to ask if in-universe do genies/djinn exist or is it a sublte way of suggesting if one day there might be a genie/djinn type champion?

Either way the obvious answer is either a no or anything is possible.

How does one summon The Djinn on the boards? And no, I'm not rubbing his fucking lamp.
