# Githyanki and Githzerai The warlike githyanki and the contemplative githzerai are a sundered people – two cultures that utterly despise one another. The brutal githyanki are trained from birth as warriors, while the githzerai hone their minds to a razor’s edge in their fortresses within Limbo. But before there were githyanki or githzerai, these creatures were a single race enslaved by the illithids. _~ Monster Manual, pg. 158_ ### Githyanki Traits **Ability Score Increase.** Your Strength score increases by 2.
