Quoting Wikipedia:
Ifrit—also spelled, Efreet, Ifreet, Afreet, Afrite, and Afrit (Arabic: ʻIfrīt: عفريت, pl ʻAfārīt: عفاريت)—are supernatural creatures in Arabic and Islamic cultures. They are in a class of infernal Jinn noted for their strength and cunning. An ifrit is an enormous winged creature of fire, either male or female, who lives underground and frequents ruins. Ifrits live in a society structured along ancient Arab tribal lines, complete with kings, tribes, and clans. They generally marry one another, but they can also marry humans. While ordinary weapons and forces have no power over them, they are susceptible to magic, which humans can use to kill them or to capture and enslave them. As with the jinn, an ifrit may be either a believer or an unbeliever, good or evil, but he is most often depicted as a wicked and ruthless being.
...but, more to the point, it is but one of the many, many identities of this crazy oddball of a 30-something Italian woman.
"Jack of all trades, master of none" doesn't even begin to describe her, as she has been known to dabble in a broad range of crafty activities, recklessly following her fickle heart's whims.
From her love of everything geeky and (if at all possible) cake-related, the seed of this project was spawned.
From whatever kind of curiosity that led you to it in the first place, it receives the nourishment it needs so badly.
From your willingness to jump in and play, it will grow hundredfold and bear rich, plump, delicious fruit.
So, in short... HAVE FUN!
