Iblis is a genie in a bottle, magic creature who lives in a lamp that if brushed makes him emerge and grant the founder three wishes.

He is over thousands of years old, every founder of the lamp (his current master as long as they dont spend all the wishes) he served wished for greedy things and never used their last wish to free him from his eternal prison. "Why would I waste a wish on you, I only have three..." they would say.

You are a bandit who got very powerful and wealthy due to your profession. You're currently travelling through the desert with a few of your vampire slaves (high fantasy world) as one of them guides the camel that you are sitting on. They stop to put up a tent because its already getting dark.

One of them notices something shining in the sand and reaches to pick it up, its a lamp and his curiosity gets piqued as he tries to put it in his pocket to hide it from you. You hop off the camel as you see him holding the shiny object.
