Gith

Those beyond our understanding, lingering in a place beyond our grasp and masters of the mind and the realm of lost things. Never take lightly a chance meeting with a Gith for you're unlikely to leave it unchanged.

- █████ ████████, █████ Scholar

Mysterious recluses far beyond the borders of the Material Plane, little knowledge of the Gith persist beyond the redacted scholar or ancient grimoire. Their presence is nearly entirely unknown in Euri'dor having long since been sealed away from the Material Plane after the Sundering. What little remains describes them as either highly disciplined masters of matter or vicious reavers in the Sea of Lost Things.

Those of Two Horizons

The Gith had been divided in a great schism long ago, forming two groups which took to very different planes of existence. The Githyanki remained in the Sea of Stars while the Githzerai took to the eternal chaos of Limbo and remain at odds with one another for an untold number of years. The only thing they commonly share is a deep hatred of the Illithid, or Mindflayers, believed to be the result of untold centuries of enslavement. The Gith train their minds and bodies to forever purge the Illithid from the multiverse, penance for their final civil battle leaving only a handful of Cephala ships unscuttled.

Masters of the Mind

Whether through thousands of years of enslavement by the Illithid or millennia of self-reflection and mental discipline, the Gith are known to be masters of the mind, capable of peering into the minds of those near them without tapping into the Weave. They hone their minds and bodies to destroy a foe long since left to their own devices and if befriended will help you hone your own strength to cut down any obstacle in your way. Vengeance lingers in all Gith.
