Githyanki are an ancient line of humanlike beings who reside in the Astral Plane, filling their armories for their next skirmish, raid, or war.

Most githyanki encountered outside their homes are fighters; however, wizards (called warlocks) and multi-class githyanki (called gish) are also found.

Combat

Githyanki are seasoned warriors, familiar with the tactical use of ambush, cover, and psionic sniper attacks from afar. However, they prefer to engage their enemies hand-to-hand so they can bring their devastating melee weapons to bear. Githyanki weapons are usually great-swords, bastard swords, and other particularly large bladed weapons of special githyanki manufacture, all masterwork and each distinctively decorated and named. Githyanki wizards direct their powers with pinpoint accuracy to support their comrades in melee.

Psionics (Sp): At will - clairaudience/clairvoyance, dimension door, mage hand, telekinesis. Upon advancing to 8th character level, a githyanki can use plane shift once per day. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 16th-level wizard.

Spell Resistance (Ex): A githyanki has spell resistance of 5 + 1 per character level.
