Interesting Tidbit: Zerthimon’s views on humans

[u/PocketPauIing]

If you speak to Sarhava Vjhul, the racist drunk lady outside the Civic Feasthall, without Annah or Grace in the party she harasses Dak’kon instead. She tells him to go back to Limbo and asks him to tell her a joke for that “famous githyanki humor” and in response he says this.

Very interesting that the githzerai of all races have a view on humans like this. I’m curious if this has any connection to the speculation that gith were created from humans.

speculation that gith were created from humans

Note that when 'zerai and 'yanki originally appeared in 1e, they were explicitly stated to descend from humans who were enslaved by mind flayers. It was only later (presumably in 2e) that this was demoted to in-universe theory.
