  • Will and Brian are getting into a historically terrifying playable race this week on The Dungeoncast! The Gith, or Githyanki specifically, are master navigators and plunderers of the Astral Plane. Their deadly martial and mental prowess unmistakably mark them as a force to be reckoned with.

    The 4E Scales of War adventure path featured Tiamat calling in her favor to get the githyanki to effectively be her foot soldiers in a plot to kill Bahamut. This causes the pact Gith made with Tiamat to be broken, and during the adventure Tyranny of Souls the party must escort Gith's soul from the Nine Hells to Tu'narath to spark a rebellion. The campaign also assumes the events of the 3E adventure called The Lich Queen's Beloved occurred before, meaning Vlaakith has been reduced to an undead spine used by Tiamat's newest puppet-ruler of the githyanki, General Zetch'r'r.

    The reason why she becomes a lich is because undeath is one of the best ways to counter Illithid. In becoming undead, the Gith gain not just resistance but immunity to many mind flayer abilities.
    Another point of lore, Gith's arrangement with Tiamat is unknown... BUT leads to the creation of a new race of red-dragon/Gith hybrids.

    Hey you guys! Loved the episode, but was KIND of disappointed with a lack of depth? If you read Tome of Foes, there’s lots of cool 5e lord in there!!! And when you said there’s no cool monster stat blocks?? The ones in Tome of Foes are CRAZY, high level, super cool!!!!
    But I’m not trying to complain!! Huge fan of the show, great episode! :D

    Gith are very similar to 40k Eldar. Craftworlds (githzerai) and raids (githyanki). Anti-psionic race versus chaos/far realm beings.

    Predator indeed. The Yautja must slay a Xenomorph in hand to hand combat in order to be seen as an adult. Which of course was taken from the Maasai tribe in Africa who must slay an adult male lion with a spear in order in order to be considered a man.

    Also remember, Liches can also come back from being murdered, so if someone betrayed the Lich Queen and somehow managed to kill her she'd come back in a couple of days to a month.

    The Inheritance Cycle, the Eragon books, are some of my favorites. Right up there with harry potter. The writing isnt tremendous, mostly because, as you said, the author was a teen when he started them, but i still find them enjoyable to this day and have read the entire series multiple times. So much so that i named a certain Ancient Blue Dragon from STK after Saphira.

    • @BigBoi237
      @BigBoi237 5 лет назад +1

      Well, Gith are higher level. And the Githyanki would see outsiders as a threat (unless they are in disguise or make it clear that they are harmless visitors and nothing more). Githzerai are isolated enough that it would be nigh impossible for a group to get to them unless they allowed it.

    Gith seem to have inspired 40k's Eldar.
    I know, the Eldar supposed to be "space elves."
    Eldar still have similarities to Gith, and fey, though.

    • @InquisitorThomas
      @InquisitorThomas 5 лет назад +1

      Well it's more that the Eldar are inspired by the Elves of Warhammer Fantasy, who were inspired by the typical D&D Elves, in particular the Drow probably played a heavy influence on the Dark Elves with their scheming, slaving, and the women are kinda higher in society despite not being nearly as Matriarchal as the Drow.

      @@InquisitorThomas
      Definitely can tell that. D&D elves inspired Warhammer elves. Warhammer elves inspired Eldar, of course.
      When it comes to the futuristic, space-faring aspects though...some Spelljammer influence rubbed off on 40k, hence Eldar are somewhat elf-gith-esque.
      Just talking in hints of commonalities and not full on 100%.

      Yes, Warhammer and 40k are both older than Spelljammer.
      D&D is older than Warhammer and the Gith are from 1977, 1st edition creations, they predate Warhammer.
      So you're correct, or incorrect, depending on what you were trying to say.
