3D render I made of the first edition of the Dark Crystal Novelization! I really love how this turned out. It’s simple, but effective. I used photos of my own copy for the base :3c

Made my beloved bf Atlas_Moon, a couple of Dark Crystal ocs. I adore them already. A bit a lore for ya'll ---The Archivist--- SkekLas was a former archivist from within the crystal castle, as they have been caught stealing original texts from the other skeksies, the last straw being one of the lord's personal journals. Was left outcasted, but he rebuilt his archives once more, collecting any pieces of original scribes and literature, maps and so on, across Thra. With all he has collected, he refuses to share any of it without a steep cost. He strives to hoard all the knowledge in Thra's history and so on. By any, means... ---The Librarian--- UrRo is SkekLas' counterpart, being a librarian of sorts. While remaining true to his mystic ways, wishing not to intervene with the happenings of Thra, UrRo is a passionate mystic on sharing and collecting written stories. SkekLas hates this. While not much in his burrow is of the skeksis' interest, if there is ever an original print anything, SkekLas will seek it out. Thankfully, the worst he's done was waste a half a trine basically screeching and scratching at his door for an originally published gelfing novel about the lords of the crystal.

I forgot how to render urVa's mane... hair.

Based on a @tdc-incorrect-quotes ... quote although I changed the wording a bit.

EDIT: Apparently my post doesn't appear in tags even if I hyperlink a fucking tumblr link. I love this website.

Husbands!! I didn't have much of a plan when I drew this but it turned into a sweet reunion scene. Possibly right after skekGra's exile.

I swear that's urGoh in the distance, yes he's tiny but I promise it's him, look below if you wish to gaze upon his pixels.

Guess what movie I watched and loved and watched again and loved even more and then binged the prequel series of and then watched again wiser and more knowledgeable and completely obsessed within the span of like a week?

I literally cannot believe that I never saw The Dark Crystal growing up (although I am certain it would have traumatized me)! The film and the series give me such a strange and striking feeling of nostalgia, even though I’ve only just seen them for the first time! It’s so rich in inspiration and imagination I can tell I’m going to be thinking about it for the rest of my life.

So, I just got the Dark Crystal tarot card deck, and I thought I'd share my honest opinions on it.

I really like the art, the character art especially. However, I'm disappointed that out of 78 cards we only got 5 urRu and 4 Skeksis. I was really hoping to see all of the Skeksis and Mystics in the deck, but nope. 😔

The "shards", "gems", "vials", and "stones" cards are nice, but they just feel like wasted potential in that these cards could have featured more characters, creatures, and landscapes of Thra, rather than being so literal and repetitive.

The deck comes with a handbook (in a super gorgeous box!), buuuut the descriptions seem a little too... I don't really know how to describe them. Not super descriptive? At least compared to other decks I've read. Idk. I guess they're fine.

I'm happy that I bought the deck, and I do really enjoy the art. It could just be better in my opinion.

Dark Crystal Vampire AU Part 4: I GUESS THIS THING NEEDS A PLOT, HUH?

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Onto the Age of Resistance and the original movie:

The inciting incident is still AU Mira getting drained with a witness. AU Rian unfortunately is up against the general perception that vampires aren’t real. I’d set this part in the 1930s because if I go with the 966 eclipse for the split date, that means that the 1000 year anniversary is fast approaching. So let’s say Rian was able to take pictures but one of the issues is finding a place to have them developed that he’s sure won’t get back to the skeksis. The location of the AU skeksis castle I’m thinking of as Venice, I’m pretty sure they have a reasonable number of old palaces there that could accommodate a gaggle of rich old vampires.

On the subject of the 1000 year anniversary—Skeksis like SkekZok, and SkekTek separately, have concluded that the original ceremony didn’t grant them permanent immortality, and something needs to happen at the 1000 year mark to make them live forever. They don’t know what it is but they know they can’t do it if they’re arrested for murder.

Well. There is one big thing that could happen. SkekGra told them. But they DON’T need to reunify, they’re the superior parts of the URSKEKs, that’s horseshit, goodbye!

SkekGra and UrGoh are doing fine, by the way. They moved to Tangier, Morocco, at some point, and during this first phase of the AU story, that’s the International Zone or Interzone and being eccentric weirdos there is really working for them. They are having lots of kinky threesomes for blood and they’ve discovered that it really decreases the pain/thirst to live with and get along with your other half! Also pairs drinking each other’s blood drastically lowers the amount of external blood needed.

(SkekMal and UrVa know this last thing too, because UrVa at one point decided to harry SkekMal forever across the Earth, never letting him settle, and after one too many disrupted hunts SkekMal was like “then I’ll just drink from YOU” and it ended up being a very interesting night.)

SkekSa and UrSan are...somewhere...in the Mediterranean Sea.

UrLii ended up living in the Paris catacombs. It happens. Eventually SkekLi ended up there too.

I think Aughra has to be a book in this AU. Maybe another esoteric acronym, AUGHRA.

I haven’t thought out much plot mapping for the show as AU. Maybe the gelfling characters are the remnant/descendants of the original URSKEK cult members? And it’s kind of an underground/esoteric religion? Would help explain the emotional sway of the skeksis/not just calling the cops. The URSKEK underground religion is what the skeksis wipe out before “movie” events. I think the urRu still raise Jen. He’s still got to help with reunification, and so does Kira, but it’s something that takes more time and is more like real detective work/solving a mystery in this AU.

As for the ending...there is reunification but I’m not sure if would let them all just leave. They certainly don’t become the original URSKEK humans again. Something different has to happen. It’s 1966! Try something new!

And that’s the vampire AU!
