TACTICS

Before Combat When he detects intruders, he casts invisibility and attempts to cast his scroll of spider climb with Use Magic Device, adding +10 with his Genie-Empowered ability. If he happens to still fail with a natural 1 then he will attempt to find a good hiding spot along the floor.

During Combat He prefers to observe a spellcaster long enough to make a death attack. He then makes sniping attacks from the ceiling for as long as possible.

Morale He wants to survive long enough to enjoy his freedom again, and flees into the city to try to hide if reduced to less than 20 hit points, abandoning his comrades. If cornered, though, he fights to the death.

Genie Empowered (Su)

Once every 3 rounds, he may choose to gain a +10 bonus on any one skill check, double his speed for the round, or gain a +5 bonus on any one saving throw (even on another creature’s turn).

Genie Magic (Sp)

His master can choose to strip his spell-like abilities from him as a free action—he can also choose to end or spoil the effects of his spell-like abilities as a free action.
