Editing Githyanki (section)

==Hierarchy==
The clearest and most explicit outline of the githyanki appeared in 4th edition, as part of the article "Tu'narath, City of Death" in Dragon #377. Prior to this, the castes had generally been described as pretty much equal, although the militant castes were more important. 
In the 4e version of the hierarchy, the caste system goes like this, from greatest authority to least:
::'''Military Caste:''' Combines the ''Githwarrior'', ''Warlock'' and ''Gish'' castes of past editions. Githwarriors are the base of this caste, led by terrths (sergeants) who serve under kithraks (captains), who serve Supreme Commanders. Gish and Warlocks are generally ranked analoguous to terrths and kithraks. Githyanki knights are the elite of the sect, and hold equal rank to the Supreme Commanders.
::'''Mlar Caste:''' The "civilian" caste, defined by at least limited access to magic. Their writeup cites "landowners, crafters, mages, seers, healers and artisans". The '''Hracknir''' are the closest thing to divine magic users in githyanki society, and whilst this makes them technically a subcaste of Mlar, it also earns them the scorn of their antitheistic fellows.
::'''Glathk Caste:''' Farmers, laborers and thrall-overseers, completely lacking in magical/psionic talent or unsuited for military life. They are the lowest of the githyanki, but at least they have it better than the...
::'''Thralls:''' The githyanki's multitude of slaves, who serve as labor, sport, and even food.
