Gith
The gith are a mysterious extraplanar race who have only occasionally been encountered on the Material Plane. They've mainly been sighted in mind-flayer lairs, where they rapidly obliterate entire colonies before making an equally swift exit. In the last few centuries, an unprecedented number of sightings have been recorded around Vesperia -- not only raiders, but smaller scouting parties exploring the Ancient Vesperian ruins scattered around the continent. What they want from the ruins is uncertain, but it's generally assumed that they want the ancient technology as much as everyone else. In any case, they have very rarely spoken to people from this plane, and the only reason anyone knows what they call themselves or even the fact that they're extraplanar is because of a handful of brief encounters in the Astral. At least a couple of extraplanar explorers have come back with stories of entire gith cities, and of a raging civil war between two factions of the species that occupies them almost as much as their hatred of mind-flayers. What's really going on with them is still unknown.
