The Dao and Marids from Manual of The Planes,as in do they show up in other books after that one?
Also, did Al-Qadim ever get updated to 3.0-3.5 rules?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Not so sure about the Dao and Marids... too many books to look through. I can however try to get back to you on that.
The Al-Qadim setting itself was not updated. However there is at least one article related to that setting. In Dragon #315, the Sha'ir class was published... other than that you'd have to find fan sites of that setting to see if anyone has been able to update it.

I looked through my books and couldn't find anything on either the Dao or the Marids.
The books I have (where they might have been) are: Races of Stone, Sandstorm, Stormwrack, Monster Manual II, and Fiend Folio. The closest things were the Nerids and Oreids for the Marids and they're different myths.

For these types of questions, I always consult the DndIndex:
http://www.juicymango.co.uk/dndindex/A quick search reveals that neither the Dao or Marid has been updated.
Anyone have contact with the operator/owner of that site? It's been "locked up" for a few weeks now.
Great resourse! I used it a lot.
