(For Vick's Homebrew Githzerai)
Zerthimon was the first to *know* the way of freedom. Yet it was not he that first came to *know* the way of rebellion.
The *knowing* of rebellion came to the warrior-queen Gith, one of the People. She had served the *illithids* upon many of the False Worlds as a soldier, and she had come to *know* war and carried it in her heart. She had come to *know* how others might be organized to subjugate others. She *knew* the paths of power, and she *knew* the art of taking from the conquerors the weapons by which they could be defeated. Her mind was focused, and both her will and her blade were as one.
The turning in which Zerthimon came to *know* Gith, Zerthimon ceased to *know* himself. Her words were as fires lit in the hearts of all who heard her. In hearing her words, he wished to *know* war. He *knew* not what afflicted him, but he *knew* he wished to join his blade to Gith. He wished to give his hate expression and share his pain with the *illithid.*
Gith was one of the People, but her *knowing* of herself was greater than any Zerthimon had ever encountered. She *knew* the ways of flesh, she *knew* the *illithids* and in *knowing* herself, she was to *know* how to defeat them in battle. The strength of her *knowing* was so great, that all those that walked her path came to *know* themselves.
Gith was but one. Her strength was such that it caused others to *know* their strength. And Zerthimon laid his steel at her feet.
Unity of the Gith: You may train others in the way of Zerthimon. By doing so, they become your squire, and gain the abilities granted by the first three waypoints while in your vicinity (within 500 feet). You may train up to three squires. It takes a full day (16 hours) to induct each squire in the way.
