Editing Githyanki (section)

==5E==
In 5th edition, githyanki resurfaced in the September 2017 issue of [[Unearthed Arcana]], with results that were... different to what'd come before, but technically also more of the same.  Weirdly, while both subraces clearly got the shaft in terms of being designed by people who actually cared about the race in question, they're significantly more powerful and in-line with the majority of other 5e PC races compared to their poor, more PC-friendly cousins:
::+2 Strength, +1 Intelligence
::Medium
::Speed 30 feet
::Vision: Normal
::Decadent Mastery: One free language proficiency and one free tool or skill proficiency of your choice.
::Martial Prodigy: Free proficiency with Light and Medium Armor.
::Githyanki Psionics: Mage Hand at-will, Jump 1/day at 3rd level, Misty Step 1/day at 5th level, all keying off of Intelligence.

Gith PCs were used in a teaser adventure previewing ''Mordekainen's Tome of Foes'', letting fans get an early look at the official version. The only real difference for githyanki was that their Martial Prodigy feature now gives them Proficiency in the Shortsword, Longsword and Greatsword, which after all are as thematically tied to their race as the axe & hammer are to [[dwarves]] or the longsword & bow are to [[elves]]. ''Mordekainen's Monsters of the Multiverse'' would give another rewrite, sticking the generic +2/+1 to two stats/+1 to 3 stats boost and changing their floating proficiencies to 1 skill and 1 weapon or tool as well as psychic resistance, but this comes at the cost of their innate armor proficiency.
