Ifrits are warlocks that can't cast magic.

Faeries

Fair Folk or Faeries, also called fey at times, are Downworlders. They have angel blood mixed with demon blood which makes them extremely cunning.

To enter the Seelie court in New York, you must go into the lake in Central Park where the moon is shining on the surface. The Fair Folk are also unable to lie. They might, however, tell what they believe is true, even if it is not. They may also expertly weave lies into sentences by using methods such as not telling the whole truth or letting others assume things.If you drink or eat any of their food then you cannot leave Seelie Court unless the Queen let's you leave.
