Naming a githzerai paladin
A githzerai paladin carries githzerai naming tradition into the paladin's calling. Githzerai names are calmer and more contemplative than their githyanki cousins, favouring softer consonants and a meditative cadence that suits a monastic, mind-disciplined people. A paladin — an oath-bound champion sworn to a sacred cause — tends toward noble, resonant names that sound right when a herald calls them.
