The Gith are a damaged race that is recovering. Split into two factions, the militant Githyanki, and the monastic Githzerai, after their escape from Mindflayer domination. This scarred the race, and have left them with psionic abilities that they get better control over the longer each lives. The Githyanki are militant using silver weapons where they will kill any who takes one of the weapons. They follow the Lich-Queen Vlaakith, and aggressively look to dominate others in real space where they encounter others. The Githzerai are more rarer in real space and prefer to live expanding their mental capacities. Both live in separate Planes outside of Material Plane, coming to the latter to attack Mindflayers, get resources, and to tend to their nurseries. The latter is needed as their home Planes prevent aging so they need these to grow to adulthood.
