Description:
In Islam and pre-Islamic Arabian folklore, a genie (aka jinn, and djinn) is a supernatural creature which possesses free will, and are known for leading humans astray. Genies are known for wearing for crowns, and other valuables including gold and silver. Other genie traits, which are most notable due to pop-culture, include coming from a lamp, granting wishes, etc; which this is a cosplay of.
The fabulous reference art is done by my close friend,

- the idea of a genie coming out of an incense lamp is from when people would be intoxicated by some form of mind altering substance, the smoke would inspire hallucinations etc.

Well, anything that's not a direct cosplay of a specific character/image/scene/etc is considered original. That includes personal renditions of a character/idea and gender-bending. So, I agree with the people who say this was better off in original.
But I still really love your avi. Congrats. - Report As Spam

Even though the term genie is a very generalized term, I still consider making a genie avatar a cosplay.
I didn't want to leave the reference image black and since there is no "generalized" genie image, I figured avatar art would suffice. - Report As Spam
