My favorite Neera wild surge was replicating Wish 8 times just before the 'final' final battle with Melissan. That's right - 8 wishes lol Previous to that in BG1 she gated a Pit Fiend casting stoneskin at the beginning of the thieves maze. The entire party ran back up the stairs to the thieves guild and the Pit Fiend ate Voleta (the gal who is lying injured from Sarevok). Talk about having a bad day
I think the funniest part was that everyone in the area got a wish... As soon as Neera finished casting the spell something like 12 djinn popped up and gave EVERYONE in the area a wish, including Tavern Drunk, Tavern Wench and Salvanas. The odd part is that I got to choose the dialog responses for all of them. I only chose the rabbits four times I think because I was worried my computer would have a heart attack. Anyway I had planned to have Neera drink a potion of insight and cast NRD until I got all the one time wishes I wanted. It turned out that I only needed to cast it once to get all I wanted and a ton of rabbits on top of that.

You should have wished for a million bucks.
Given the precocious nature of most Djinn, I wouldn't be surprised to find myself surrounded by an impossibly large herd of deer upon making such a wish. As if the rabbits aren't enough!

Wouldn't it be 'capricious nature'? 'Precocious' means something else entirely - it is a synonym of 'prodigious' - that is, developed beyond their years, be it physically, mentally or psychologically.
Funnily enough, both of these descriptors would fit my person. Actually, I believe 'precocious' and 'capricious' would fit any and every Aspie out there, myself more than most, due to my comorbid disorders.
If they were chickens, I'd say it was Skyrim. BOOOM!
Don't you mean 'Zelda'?
Nope, Skyrim.
Exploding Chicken mod.
Funny, in one of my games, a chicken sent assassins after me for accidentally killing a cow while fighting a dragon. Good times. Guess he didn't like having his sister killed by an orc mage. Would be even funnier if the assassins were named "Jim" and "Earl".
@Loub I said precocious because such a quality often leads the being in question to think they know better than others, which I find to be characteristic of most Djinn. This often leads to them correcting the poor, unsuspecting wish maker, as in the bucks:deer example, leading to no end of chaos/hunting licenses. Though they can certainly be called capricious as well.

Oh if only this were the romance talk we actually had there...
Run to the Umar Hills!!!

Edited for emphasis.
In no way does ANY of its meanings match what you propose, yet you adamantly refuse to admit you erred. Maddening!
The facts stand against you, yet you refuse to acknowledge them due to your sheer prepotence.
Yes, my dear PREPOTENT, *that* is the word you're looking for. Once again have I held the higher ground on this.
PREPOTENCE is the word you're looking for, as I have stated.
Don't try to argue with a linguist, this is doomed to fail.
You seem to enjoy calling others philistines, yet you act like one yourself in matters linguistical. Hmph.
