The warlike race of githyanki inhabits the mysterious and hard-to-reach expanses of the Astral. They are stronger and cleverer than humans and a touch more agile, but have little patience for contemplation. They have yellow skin and an elongated skull with pointed ears and teeth. Githyanki hair is crimson or black, as are their eyes.

Silver plays an important role in githyanki culture, and they spend their entire lives in ritual duels with silver swords. Life in the Astral has hardened their minds against mental attacks and charms and taught them to withstand raw energy. Their inclination toward Evil makes them vulnerable to holy power. They make excellent warriors, thieves, and ninjas, though other classes suit them just fine too.

• Bonus skills: spell craft, sword
