I figure this could go here, but if not I have no qualms about it being moved.
I'm about to run a game where one of the players is LN Githyanki Monk. I was just wondering if there is any difference in how the Githyanki opperate in the Realms form the standard MM descriptions. I am also looking for a location to star him in. Any Githyanki city would do.

Since no one has seemed to comment, I will give my two cents.
The Gith have no real city on FR that I am aware of, though they do create small bases to serve for a limited time with each incursion. Given the fact he is LN, I would probably go with the idea he was raised at a remote monastery after being found by an adventuring company trying to halt one such incursion. The then child was not seen as part of the incursion but more a helpless victim and one of the members of the company (Who was also a monk from the same monastery) brought him there since he had no where else to go. If you are going for more of a Gith feel, he would need to be coming from the Astral plane in my opinion. Check out Dungion issue #100 and the dragon that came out that same month I believe. |

The topic is over before I can contribute! I'll contribute anyway.

The only good githyanki is a dead githyanki as far as I'm concerned!

Also check out the write-up of Torglor in "drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark", p.86 - it details a githyanki outpost opposed to the fearsome illithid city of Oryndoll.
