Yeah, any of those would be good. Heck, all of them would work, as Dragonborn and Dwarves are definitely in, so "sub-species" (ugh, that might be even worse than sub-race) or Duergar and Gem DB might easily fit, making Gith the best additional species. Plus, they were in Baldur's Gate 3 as a PC, so there is synergy there.
You know what, Baldur's Gate 3 may have been big enough to get the Gith in the PHB after the UA was done.
I don't see them doing that anytime soon.
I agree its not high on the list, but I give it three years from when the new PHB is out.
I'm now convinced of it. They've added psionic subclasses. Why not the Gith?
A Githyanki Psi Warrior is kind of an unusual individual, but player characters are unusual by their nature to start with. It is distinctly D&D, and not something that just screams "generic fantasy."
Thematically it's good, but it's always bugged me that Psi Warrior gets a "Resistance to psychic damage" class feature and most of the innately psionic races like Gith and Kalashtar also get it as a trait. I know it's not a big deal, but that sort of overlapping redundancy is like an itch I can't scratch.
Well, it strikes me that putting the Gith, the Psionic Subclasses, and the Tasha's Paionic Feats in the PHB would be a great way to smooth thst sort of thing out in a regular fashion.
I think we have a good chance of being correct here. It lines up and strikes me as a good idea. (Though sometimes I feel that things that are THIS good an idea are less likely to happen because they are TOO good an idea!)
Well, the thing is that it just doesn't seem like a good idea but a good idea thst would be easy to sell in a corporate meeting without requiring massive resources to pull off.
