    I always thought the Githyanki were elves. They have so many physical and social features similar to elves. Their ears, skin shades and texture, seclusion from others, the cast system of workers, their long lives, and much more all seem more akin the elf and human. Great video btw!

    Great video on this often overlooked (at least on tabletop) race. Another cool fact is that Githyanki makes a lot of small outposts on material plane, to pretty much just age their children up, as nothing ages on astral plane. Also I appreciate the fact, that you showed the Githyanki raiding ship. Oh and on astral plane, their city is built in a floating corpse of a dead god. If anyone would be interested in DnD book which covers them, it´s Mordekainen´s Tome of Foes.

    I'm very excited about playing a Githyanki in an Illithid themed story. There is a strong suggestion in 'Planescape: Torment' that the Nameless One is actually Zerthimon and while that has been 'officially' denied by the writers, the intent seems pretty strong in the game and I suspect they either changed their minds or were gagged by WOTC from introducing that into the canon. In my table's Planescape campaign I had the party get entangled in Garl Glittergold's schemes to ruin the bargain between the Githyanki and Tiamat.

    @@joshholt5930 Maybe in addon or BG4. And lv10 isnt low. Most mortals would never reach such level and 15+ level is absurdly strong. Game would have to throw packs of dragons at you just to make encounters challenging and it kinda kills immersion. I'd personally prefer 15 lever gap big story expansion 2-3 years after story of BG3 ends.

    [Note this was many years ago. I actually played a Gnome Druid, but yes I am keepking Laezel as a friend and ally.] I was thinking, if I choose to play the Gith (Lae’zel), who really looks like an awesome character, I might not see some of her reactions and I won't be able to try and befriend/romance her :P Anyway, clearly one of the best origin characters up to now: her non-verbal stance (proud warrior), her looks, really nice. I will probably not push her into the evil path (i.e. striking at those you could talk to), though she won't be exactly a pacifist either. I feel her character will add a lot to the ambiance of the story. ps: the first time I saw the cinematic, I thought she might be a half-orc.

It was her coming on too me, usually that is never the case from what I heard. I guess maybe the *Githyanki* see the *Dragonborn* as a attractive race or maybe they just want to *Ride The Dragon* 😅😂

    Absolutely loved this video. I knew very little about the Gith before seeing this, and they have a very interesting background. I'll definitely be making one in one of my early playthroughs, and you can count on me to be one of those mould-breakers haha. There are always outliers to archetypes, and I've always enjoyed exploring their potential while keeping them believable and compelling. The background imagery and music you picked were wonderful too. Loved that 'lore stories around a campfire' feel. The intrigue in your narrative style was also highly infectious xD Can tell you really enjoyed talking about these guys. I'll let you know if I have any ideas for future lore videos. There's tons I'd love to hear about but I wanna prioritize haha.

Sorcerer, but are not sure wich rase is good for them ... not so great if you taking it from the other way. :) )
