Limiting the power of a character and making the overall difficulty of the game harder, does not reduce the creativity, indeed it does quite the opposite.
The Game Master has the option to use any and all of the instances proposed in this guide, or just some of them according to their preference.
It is the lack of something that move and motivate characters, not the abundance of it
DESCRIPTION
The githzerai zerth is a type of githzerai, a race of humanoid beings that inhabit the plane of Limbo. The githzerai zerth is distinguished by its exceptional mastery of both martial and psionic arts, as well as its devotion to the teachings of Zerthimon, the founder of their culture. The githzerai zerth is a rare and respected individual among the githzerai, who values discipline, harmony, and enlightenment above all else.
COMBAT
The githzerai zerth is a formidable opponent in combat, using its psionic abilities to manipulate reality and enhance its physical prowess. The githzerai zerth can transport itself and others across planes with a mere thought, as well as create illusions and nightmares in the minds of its enemies. The githzerai zerth is also skilled in unarmed combat, using its fists and feet as deadly weapons. The githzerai zerth prefers to avoid unnecessary violence, but will not hesitate to defend itself and its allies from any threat.

The githzerai zerth dwells in isolated monasteries or citadels, where it practices meditation and studies the philosophy of Zerthimon. The githzerai zerth is revered by other githzerai as a leader and a teacher, who guides them in their quest for self-knowledge and balance. The githzerai zerth also acts as a liaison between the githzerai and other planar beings, such as the slaadi, the modrons, and the githyanki.
