Jinn/History

Background
Before recorded history, the God of Light created Jinn to aid Humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. She lives within the Relic of Knowledge, and she may answer three questions every 100 years when awakened. It is unknown how many questions she has answered, but she appears to be familiar with Ozpin, greeting him as "old man".

Aiding the Heroes
Two weeks after the Battle Pages/Battle of Beacon, Ruby Rose awakens Jinn from the lamp as the heroes watch time stop around them. She introduces herself as a being the God of Light made to help Humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. She reveals she can answer two questions in this time period. Ozpin tries to stop her from saying it, for he had told everyone there were no available questions. She pleasantly greets Ozpin, calling him “old man”. Ozpin begs Ruby not to ask anything, but she asks what Ozpin is hiding from them. Ozpin rushes at Ruby, but before he can touch her, Jinn takes them to individual alternate planes with which she can answer the question. She begins her answer by showing a Human Salem, saying she was a lonely girl in a lonely tower a long time ago.
