The prospect of Djinn is more exciting than another Abrahamic offshoot anyway lol. But this does make me wonder, what about the Hebrew? Since Christians exist then Judaism has to have at least existed. So are they still around? Do they create Kabbalistic Golems?

Any unit slashed/grabbed performs a reflex attack reaction. So every time a flyer dives or swoop to attack it's at a risk.
