'''Ch'r'ai Tska'an''' is a [[githyanki]] [[NPC]] encountered in [[Act Two]]. She will always be hostile.
'''Ch'r'ai Tska'an''' and her group of [[Githyanki|gith]] will ambush the party as they are approaching the Road To Baldur's Gate [[Waypoint]] in [[Act Two]]. If Lae'zel and the party sided with [[Kith'rak Voss]] previously, he gifts the party with a psionic detector that will alert them of the ambush. It will also grant advantage to their first strike against each of the gith. In combat, Tska'an functions as a warlock.

== Tactics ==
== Involvement ==
Tska'an and her squad are formidable foes that will block the player from proceeding to Baldur's Gate and Act III. Tska'an begins the battle standing on an archway flanked by two crossbowmen who will often use [[Trip Attack (Ranged)|Trip Attack]]. Below her are two Githyanki warriors armed with [[Supreme Githyanki Parry]].
Ch'r'ai Tska'an and her group of [[Githyanki]] will ambush the party as they are approaching the {{WpCo|Road to Baldur's Gate|-263|-37}} [[Waypoint]]. Carrying the {{SmRarityItem|Qua'nith Psionic Detector}}, whether gifted by {{CharLink|Voss}} or looted off his corpse, allows the player to more easily spot their ambush and surprise the raiding party.  


An effective way to begin the fight is using spells like [[Enhance Leap]], [[Misty Step]], or [[Dimension Door]] to get the entire party onto the top of the archway with Tska'an and begin focusing attacks on the crossbowmen. The warriors below will be forced to waste a turn or two taking the long way around or using [[Githyanki Psionics]] to follow with a jump.  
If the party was not marked for death by {{CharLink|Vlaakith}}, Tska’an and her entourage will not appear at the ambush spot. If this is the case, Tska'an can be fought in the [[Knights of the Shield Hideout]] in [[Act Three]] as part of the quest {{Quest|Visit the Emperor's Old Hideout}}.  


==Notable loot==
In combat, Tska'an functions as a [[gish]] and a [[warlock]].

=== Encounter details ===
* Tska'an and her squad will block the player from proceeding to [[Baldur's Gate]] and Act Three. Tska'an begins the battle standing on an archway flanked by two [[Veteran Raider|Veteran Githyanki Raiders]] who will often use {{SAI|Trip Attack (Ranged)|Trip Attack}} and {{SmRarityItem|Arrow of Many Targets}}. Below her are two [[Veteran Warrior|Veteran Githyanki Warriors]] armed with [[Githyanki Parry]].
* All members of the gith ambush carry weapons imbued with {{Cond|Light}}, to protect them from the weaker areas of the Shadow Curse on the border of Reithwin.
 
=== Tactics ===
* An effective way to begin the fight is using spells like {{SAI|Enhance Leap}}, {{SAI|Misty Step}}, or {{SAI|Dimension Door}} to get the entire party onto the top of the archway and begin focusing attacks on the raiders. Alternatively, the party can sneak their way onto the archway via a path to the north before the githyanki appear and {{Cond|Surprised|surprise}} them. The warriors below will be forced to waste a turn or two taking the long way around or using Enhance Leap to follow with a jump.
* While Tska'an herself is immune to the [[Shadow curse]], her allies can all be affected by it. Retreating deeper into the town of Reithwin will cause the darker shadows to extinguish the {{SAI|Light}} spell on their weapons, causing them to take damage from the curse every turn. However, if they die to the curse in this way then they will be revived with half health as {{Cond|Shadow-cursed undead}}. If they die to the curse, then they will be hostile to everyone, including Tska’an.
