{"name":"Githyanki","overview":"[p]The warlike githyanki and the contemplative githzerai are a sundered people \u2013 two cultures that utterly despise one another. The brutal githyanki are trained from birth as warriors, while the githzerai hone their minds to a razor\u2019s edge in their fortresses within Limbo. But before there were githyanki or githzerai, these creatures were a single race enslaved by the illithids.[\/p]\r\n[p]Whether these tall, gaunt creatures were peaceful or savage, cultured or primitive before the illithids enslaved and changed them, none can say. Not even the original name of their race remains from that distant time.\r\n[\/p]\r\n[p]The githyanki plunder countless worlds from the decks of their astral vessels and the backs of red dragons. Feathers, beads, gems, and precious metals decorate their armor and weapons \u2013 the legendary silver swords with which they cut through their foes. Since winning their freedom from the illithids, the githyanki have become ruthless conquerors under the rulership of their dread lich-queen, Vlaakith.[\/p]","image_id":"","ability_score_increase":"Your Strength score increases by 2, and your Intelligence score increases by 1.","age":"Gith reach adulthood in their late teens and live for about a century.","alignment":"","size":"Medium","speed":"Your base walking speed is 30 feet.","languages":"You can speak, read, and write Common and Gith.","parent_race":"994328","sub_races":"","race_features":"[h3]Decadent Mastery[\/h3] You learn one language of your choice, and you are proficient with one skill or tool of your choice.
