Homebrew Gith (Sapphire Star Rework) Species Details
The story of the gith is rooted in a cruel twist of cosmic fate. Inspired by the great leader for whom the race is named, the gith rose up to overthrow the mind flayers that held them in servitude. But after they won their freedom, three factions among the gith disagreed on what kind of civilization they would forge. That disagreement quickly flared into open hostility, and the three groups distanced themselves from one another to pursue their separate agendas.
