Word of the Week 02/02/20: Gish

From Wiktionary:

1. (fantasy role-playing games) A character that is skilled in both physical combat and the use of magic.
2. (slang) An outsider.

The term originates in the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) game, where it originally referred to a Githyanki fighter/wizard combination. Gish is still an official term used in D&D referring to this, but is also used to refer to any character who has a martial/spellcasting combination of abilities.
