The githzerai are attuned to the mysteries of the inner self and are considered a race of ascetics who harness the power of the mind and the spirit.

Class Features

Class Level: The Class Level column of the githzerai racial class table indicates whether a githzerai gains a standard class level at any given racial level. Some racial levels provide a standard class level, some racial levels provide a githzerai specific ability, and some grant both. Class levels grant all the benefits normally associated with a level increase. This includes granting another Hit Die, gaining other class abilities, and advancement in base attack bonus, base saves, and ability scores.

+2 Dexterity, —2 Intelligence.

Naturally Psionic: At 1st level, githzerai gain 2 bonus power points. This benefit does not grant them the ability to manifest powers unless they gain that ability through another source, such as levels in a psionic class. Power points do allow a character to make use of psionic feats and attempt to gain psionic focus.

+2 Dexterity: At 2nd level, a githzerai gains a +2 increase to his Dexterity score. At 4th level, a githzerai gains an additional +2 increase to his Dexterity score.

+2 Wisdom: At 2nd level, a githzerai gains a +2 increase to his Wisdom score.

Inertial Armor (Ps): At 3rd level, a githzerai gains the use of inertial armor (EPH 113) as a psi-like ability three times per day (manifester level equal to 1/2 Hit Dice, minimum 1st).

Concussion Blast (Ps): At 4th level, a githzerai gains the use of concussion blast (EPH 85) as a psi-like ability once per day. Manifester level equal to 1/2 Hit Dice (minimum 1st). Starting at 5th level, a githzerai can use this psi-like ability twice per day. Starting at 6th level, a githzerai can use this psi-like ability three times per day.

Ability Score Increase: Upon attaining any Hit Die divisible by 4, a githzerai character increases one of his ability scores by 1 point. The player chooses which ability score to improve. The ability improvement is permanent.

Psionic Plane Shift (Ps): At 13th level, a githzerai gains the use of psionic plane shift (EPH 124) as a psilike ability once per day (manifester level equal to 1/2 Hit Dice, minimum 1st).
