#'gith' and 'githyanki' are interchangeable in bg3's in-game vocab 'but that could mean githzerai were eliminated entirely'

discussions of racism among the bg3 community have to start with recognizing that wyll ravengard isn't a black character. he's THE black character.
out of all of the origin--hell, even the permanently playable--characters, wyll is the only one with an actor of color, let alone a black actor. if you want to avoid a discussion on orientalist origins in regards to gith in d&d, he's also the only origin/playable character of color both explicitly and through fantasy coding.
