GITHYANKI RACIAL CLASS
Githyanki are an ancient race of martial humanoids residing on the Astral Plane. Widely known as planar travelers, githyanki venture to all corners of the multiverse in search of power and wealth. Githyanki are widely perceived as rapacious marauders who revel in warfare and conquest. True, they can be arrogant, and sometimes view other humanoids native to the Material Plane with contempt. Other githyanki are more open-minded, however, and can work with other races toward mutual goals. Regardless, every githyanki is convinced of her ability to handle any kind of trouble that might arise on whatever plane she happens to be traveling.
