Editing The Dark Crystal (section)

===Skeksis===
[[File:DinnerWithTheSkeksis.jpg|736px|thumb|center|Their dinners are as agitated as anyone's during Thanksgiving.]]
====SkekSo====
The [[Emperor of Mankind|EMPURAAAAAH]] of the Skeksis. This guy could eat [[Warpstone|warpstones]] for breakfast. He is the head of state and the very reason why the Crystal became corrupted. He is the most prideful, hateful, maniacal and deranged member of his species. How so? He started the Darkening. The slow process that which dries up the power and magic of Thra. 

The Emperor is, without a doubt, an extremely [[Star_Wars_Movies#The_coming_of_the_prequel_trilogy|serious menace]], capable of leading a bunch of backstabbing bastards who cannot be trusted into creating a complex, if self-sufficient, bureaucracy that allows SkekSo to rule over the Gelflings with an iron fist, leaving all the dirty work to his SkekSi subordinates. While he isn't a warmonger per-say, because that title fits SkekVar and SkekUng, The Emperor ''hates'' being trod on, meaning that if it you ever attempt to backstab, betray or even disobey him in any way, he '''will''' erase you and your kind from history books. For example, the Makraks refused to give up their independence to obey the Skeksis, so SkekSo tasked SkekUng and SkekGra to simply get rid of them, and in the best of scenarios, enslave them.

====SkekSil====
The Chamberlain of the Skeksis [[Meme|EMPURAAAAAH]]. Most likely [[Tzeentch]] in disguise. The schemiest bastard of the bunch. And you know him well. 

He craves power like the next guy who wants to usurp a throne and claim it for himself, but contrary to many others who go for the kill and claim the crown, SkekSil is simply biding his time. And while in the long run, [[Not as planned|it didn't work out very well for him]], it is undeniable that, in the end, he had a long, successful career as SkekSo's main counsellor. Being the right hand of the Emperor doesn't bother him at all, if anything it helps him. Every Skeksis has a teeth against SkekSil, but his position grants him some sort of prestige among them. Although that prestige is often-times short lived.

He doesn't really '''make''' decisions, mind you, but he "suggests" ideas to the people who make decisions. He's the one who told SkekTek to work on a machine that could collect essence, the latter of which serves as SkekSo's rejuvenating gelfling juice. He was the first one to bargain with the Gelflings regarding the futility of the Resistance, when the rest of the Skeksis were panicking. He was the first one to suggest to discredit Rian in front of his peers by using the Gelflings' stellar gullibility. He was the first one to call on SkekMal to chase after Rian, who none of the Skeksis even DARED to call by his name. If anything, he whispers in the ears of his allies AND enemies, telling them what to do. He doesn't play 4D Chess, but [[Just as planned|he can tell almost nine times out of ten what will be the next moves of BOTH players]].

SkekSil sure loves to look like an ally, he'll do everything in his power to earn your trust. Just make sure that you never do him dirty, because you're gonna regret it really fast.

[[/tv/]] LOVES SkekSil, so much so that he is sometimes seen as the mascot for the /AoR/ threads. His signature whimpering became a catchphrase among many fans. He might as well be the figurehead of the Dark Crystal franchise.

====SkekMal====
The one proof that what the Skeksis need to stay young isn't some weird juice that comes out of space gnomes, but literally hitting the gym. He's the alpha of the Skeksis, the strongest of them all, the original nightmare of anything that lives. So much so he could probably give [[Doom|the Doom Slayer]] the fight of his life. He could probably scare a [[Space Wolf]]. He could probably arm wrestle with [[Sly Marbo]]. He's also one of the only Skeksis with his other half actively trying to prevent him from committing a massacre. The reason why he isn't ruling the Skeksis and acts as a subordinate to the Emperor is because leadership is for pussies. 

Remember, the Age of Division is temporary, but '''THE HUNT IS ETERNAL.'''

====SkekGra====
The [[Heretic]], formerly known as the Conqueror. Unlike the other members of the Skeksis cult, he realized that being a douche didn't amount to anything, and felt like his other half was missing. Simultaneously, his UrRu counterpart, Urgo the Wonderer, felt that too. Both tried to convince their kin to rejoin their brothers, but to no avail. The Skeksis because they never wanted to surrender the Crystal, and the UrRu because they don't want to reunite with their disgusting evil brothers.

So SkekGra and UrGoh abandoned everything, including their kin, and rejoined at the Circles of the Sun, a place so isolated that it's in the middle of a deadly desert. There isn't much known about them, but both seem to live pretty well, one appearing as the hectical, easily angered half, and the other the calm, tranquil and constantly stoned other half. Yes, they do drugs. According to Rian, deadly drugs too.
