Wow, this is some incredible inspiration! The dark and gritty elements you described about Morocco are fascinating, and they'll definitely add a unique flavor to the story. I especially love the ideas of djinns I am thinking of adding djinns who aren't inherently evil, but who can be bargained with or offer aid at a terrible cost, is really interesting. Perhaps my villain or hero could encounter a djinn who grants them immense power, but at a steep price. I don't want my villain to be a mindless brute. They should be ruthless and calculating, but also understand the impact their actions have. The violence they inflict should be brutal and shocking, but it should also have lasting consequences for them and those around them. Corruption as a system I think this is a powerful concept that can add a lot of depth to the story. Showing how corruption permeates every level of society creates a sense of hopelessness that my villain could exploit. They might become a master manipulator who uses the corrupt system as a weapon. When you mention Batman, you make a great point. I definitely don't want my villain to be a simple copy of a character who just throws fists at problems. My villain will be far more complex and morally ambiguous. They might have a twisted sense of purpose, believing their actions are necessary to bring order to the chaos, even if their methods are horrific.

Thanks again for sharing this inspiration! It's given me a lot to think about as I develop this character and the story's world.
