Sonic and the Secret Rings
The Red Ma Djinns first appeared in Sonic and the Secret Rings. They originate from multiple places, but all share the common characteristic of being driven to madness during the events of the game. Some appear to have been regular inhabitants, others were evil spirits sealed away long ago by King Solomon, and the rest were created by the Erazor Djinn from carving up the words of the Arabian Nights. Regardless, they were all recruited into Erazor's personal army and used to attack the world of the Arabian Nights in his search for the World Rings.

The Red Ma Djinns are some of the most common enemies in the game and can be found in every World. In gameplay, they attack almost immediately as the player approaches by breathing fire while turning around. However, they take two hits to be defeated, so the player has to be cautious when landing the second hit due to their fire breath. When defeated, they release Pearls.
