The githyanki was first published in White Dwarf # 12 ( April / May 1979 ), in the " Fiend Factory " column, which was later reprinted in Best of White Dwarf Articles ( 1980 ).

Meanwhile, the losses the githyanki sustained in their war were too great for Gith to continue her crusade, so they retreated to the conquered illithid settlements on the Astral Plane to rebuild their numbers to the point when they could exterminate both the illithids and the githzerai.

In the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, Tu ' narath is the capital city of the githyanki, a race of humanoids descended from slaves who overthrew the illithid empire thousands of years ago.

Githzerai are descended from the same race of ancient illithid thralls as their cousins, the githyanki.

Githzerai history was the same as githyanki history until shortly after the ancient illithid empire was thrown down under the leadership of the legendary heroine, Gith.

The githyanki, designed by Charles Stross within the pages of White Dwarf, was introduced to most D & D players in the Fiend Folio.

The githyanki was featured on the cover, which helped it gain traction among the D & D community.

The githyanki was further detailed in the first Planescape Monstrous Compendium Appendix ( 1994 ).

The githyanki appears in the revised Monster Manual for this edition ( 2003 ), and was further detailed in the Expanded Psionics Handbook ( 2004 ) ( along with the psionic githyanki ) and the Complete Psionic ( 2006 ).

The githyanki was initially featured in the 4th Edition preview book Worlds and Monsters.

Dispater's price, however — the souls of all githyanki — was too high for her to contemplate.

While the concept of a githyanki lich-queen dates back to their original description, Vlaakith was first mentioned by name in A Guide to the Astral Plane ( 1996 ) by Monte Cook, which gave her full game stats for the first time.

The adventure also revealed that she had been siphoning off the power of a dead god ( now resembling rock ) on which Tu ' narath was built, which she accomplished, rules-wise, by killing githyanki that had risen above character level 16.

Vlaakith I was an advisor to Gith and helped seal the pact between red dragons and the githyanki.

After this pact was made, the red dragon consort of Tiamat, Ephelomon, went to Gith's followers to tell them of her sacrifice and convey Gith's final decree, making Vlaakith the first queen of all the githyanki and ordering them to continue their conquests.

For a time, Gith tolerated Zerthimon's dissent, but her hand was forced when the loyalists of Gith came to blows with Zerthimon's followers, and a civil war erupted that vastly reduced the githyanki population and reduced at least one world to ashes.

In the end, neither faction was able to continue the war any longer, and the githyanki retreated to the Astral Plane, while Zerthimon's followers, the githzerai, retreated to Limbo.

The githyanki were introduced by Charles Stross in his Advanced Dungeons & Dragons campaign.

The githyanki is considered a " Product Identity " by Wizards of the Coast and as such is not released under its Open Gaming License.

Unlike their mammalian ancestors, githyanki reproduce by laying eggs.

While some githyanki were comforted by Gith's military discipline, others chafed against it.

Vlaakith CLVII, also known as the Lich-Queen ( or, by her followers, as the Revered Queen ), is the current ruler of the githyanki, and is a fictional character and adversary in the game.

The githzerai and githyanki, originally a single race known as " forerunners ," escaped enslavement by the plane-spanning illithids.

A god-isle is the immense petrified remains of a dead god that float on the Astral Plane, where githyanki and others often mine them for minerals and build communities on their stony surfaces.

Tu ' narath, the capital city of the githyanki, is built on the petrified corpse of a dead god known only as " The One in the Void.

A few creatures inhabit this no-gravity place, however, such as the mysterious outsiders called githyanki and the astral dreadnoughts.

The githyanki are a fictional humanoid race in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.

The githyanki have appeared in all editions of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game since Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.

In Martin's novel, the githyanki were called " soulsucks " because of their dangerous psychic powers.

No githyanki actually appear in Dying of the Light, as the book takes place after the war between the humans and the hrangans is long over, and the soulsucks are nearly extinct.

The githyanki then appears in 1981 in the first edition Fiend Folio, and even appears on the book's cover.

The module Tales of the Outer Planes ( 1988 ) describes a githyanki lair.

The githyanki appears first in the Monstrous Compendium Outer Planes Appendix ( 1991 ), which also included the g " lathk githyanki, the hr ' a ' cknir githyanki, and the mlar githyanki.

The " Incursion " storyline running through July 2003's Dragon # 309 and Dungeon # 100 focused on the githyanki heavily.

The githyanki then appears in the Monster Manual for this edition ( 2008 ), including the githyanki warrior, the githyanki mindslicer, and the githyanki gish.

Power generated by muscles, however, is limited by force – velocity relationship, and even at the optimal contraction speed for power production, total work done by the muscle will be less than half of what could be done if the muscle were contracting over the same distance at very slow speeds, resulting in less than 1 / 4 the projectile launch velocity possible without the limitations of the force – velocity relationship.

Individuals who alternate between top / dominant and bottom / submissive roles – whether from relationship to relationship or within a given relationship – are known as switches, though the term is occasionally seen as derogatory or unnuanced and is rejected by many who might simplistically fit the definition.

Unlike other C-suite positions, which tend to be defined according to commonly designated responsibilities across most companies, the COO job tends to be defined in relation to the specific CEO with whom he / she works, given the close working relationship of these two individuals.

The client / server characteristic describes the relationship of cooperating programs in an application.

One of Coronation Streets best known storylines took place in March / April 1998, with Deirdre Rachid being wrongfully imprisoned after a relationship with con-man Jon Lindsay.

Legacy systems feeding the DW / BI solution often include customer relationship management ( CRM ) and enterprise resource planning solutions ( ERP ), generating large amounts of data.

The structure allows representing information using parent / child relationships: each parent can have many children, but each child has only one parent ( also known as a 1-to-many relationship ).

Some modern deists have modified this classical view and believe that humanity's relationship with God is transpersonal, which means that God transcends the personal / impersonal duality and moves beyond such human terms.

Enterprise resource planning ( ERP ) systems integrate internal and external management information across an entire organization, embracing finance / accounting, manufacturing, sales and service, customer relationship management, etc.

Many list family members and the relationship of the deceased to them ( for example, " Father / Mother / Son / Daughter of ").

By substituting these three verbs, even without clarifying morality ( ought, shall, should, must ) or the actor ( s ) who do or did something, becomes / remains / equals makes clear what time frame of relationship is asserted, and disallows assuming one stable past / present / future timeline-known as single scenario planning or blind linearity and considered a grave error in risk analysis.

The changing rates of clocks allowed Einstein to conclude that light waves change frequency as they move, and the frequency / energy relationship for photons allowed him to see that this was best interpreted as the effect of the gravitational field on the mass – energy of the photon.

The fractal curve divided into parts 1 / 3 the length of the original line becomes 4 pieces rearranged to repeat the original detail, and this unusual relationship is the basis of its fractal dimension.

In the late 1970s, fiction that included a sexual relationship between two of the male characters of the media source ( first Kirk / Spock, then later Starsky / Hutch, Napoleon / Illya, and many others ) started to appear in zines.
