In most genie stories, genies are bound to several rules. Most common rules are:
They can grant only a limited number of wishes (mostly three), they can't kill a person, they can't make someone fall in love, they are bound to their lamp/ring/bottle etc. These rules usually cause some trouble for the stories or create interesting twists.

Tell us about your rules and how they affect your stories and the actions of your genies.

My genie, Jenna, has the typical Genie Rules, and a few others:

-For the most part, the master may ONLY have three wishes, no more, no less. If the genie is a PIRATE GENIE, there can only be one wish per matey on ship.

-No killing anyone.

-No making people fall in love with each other.

-No bringing people back from the dead.

-Always have a backup genie in case of inclement circumstances, such as illnesses.

-Genies are very literal; if you want $1M, ask for a million DOLLARS, or you'll get a million male deer.

-If you make advances (you know which kind I mean!), you will become a genie yourself.

-If you destroy the vessel, the genie will die.
