Half-gith....

From the documentation:
QuoteGith are a race of hunched-over humanoids which are apparently descended from elves. Any such evolutionary branching assuredly occurred sometime in the very distant past, for there are few similarities between them save their long-limbed frame and great height.

Seems like you could have half-gith/half-elf....except they utterly despise each other.

Rape.  How do you think half-elves come about?  ;)

Then again, I can't imagine either race being attracted to each other enough to consider rape, and besides, who really knows what's beneath a gith's loincloth, anyhow?  They might reproduce by rubbing noses or something.

Rape is not about attraction, it's about power.  So...in that sense, I wouldn't be surprised.  Gross but true.
Child, child, if you come to this doomed house, what is to save you?

A voice whispers, "Read the tales upon the walls."

I wouldn't doubt it if some gith force themselves upon anything warm.

Or anything warm forced themselves upon some gith...

If by weird tribal men you mean Christians then yes.

She was teabagging me.

My own mother.

Then I guess it all boils down to how dissimilar gith are from the various races?  I'm no biology expert...

I know if I was a gith, I wouldn't want to screw another gith.  That's like saying you prefer to screw lepers because you're a leper yourself. In FightClub logic at least.

I don't doubt you can have a character who looks part gith. Wouldn't advise keywording it, though!

Rape is about power, not attraction.

I believe there has been one in the past, in game.  If not, then the PC was just damn ugly, and a damn good liar, because he had most of Allanak fooled.

This would have been somewhere near 2002, or 2003... though I can't, for the life of me, remember the PC's name.

There are also certain cultures who would perhaps have a higher chance of this happening, and not through force.
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

I thought they were called Red Fangs.

I could see a Breed being a half-gith. I mean, you would be extra hated. So probably not a good idea. I mean. Most people hate elves, Everyone hates a gith.  PLus, You'de stink.

Yet if you were female, I bet you would still get hit on...
I remember recruiting this Half elf girl. And IMMEDIATELY taking her out on a contract. Right as we go into this gith hole I tell her "Remember your training, and you'll be fine." and she goes "I have no training." Then she died

Very sad, but probably true.

I think Gith are half elf / half desert lizard.

So it would be like saying, could you make a Half-Mul, or a Half-Half-elf, because it's already a crossbreed.

I have seen entities within game which I strongly suspect are half-gith. Exercise to the reader, I guess.

You couldn't make a half-mul.

Muls are sterile.

Ever heard that expression "Have your cake and eat it too"?  Heh, maybe that's why we don't see any half-gith offspring.


it depends on their ploidy number of chromosomes

i could tell you all about it

TGIF
I tripped and Fale down my stairs. Drink milk and you'll grow Uaptal. I know this guy from the state of Tenneshi. This house will go up Borsail tomorrow. I gave my book to him Nenyuk it back again. I hired this guy golfing to Kadius around for a while.

Me, too, twice. I think there are race options hidden from the unwashed masses. Not like the normal hidden ones. They're hidden-hidden.
