I've looked at some fanart but the worst things I've seen is some weird ships and no weird fetishes like feet, vore or inflation. I'm very surprised.
Someone is going to see this and make me regret saying this aren't they?
Well now you can. I have created a wiki where anyone can just lie about what went down in history. you can make Thra and The Skeksis and Gelfling real by making a page on this wiki.
You can go from tolerating her to hating her to feeling sorry for her to hating her to feeling sorry to hating to feeling sorry to hating her to tolerating her to feeling sorry for her to tolerating her.
Yes I loved them
No I hated those shits
I don't know.
I DON'T GIVE A SHET!

I love this community but it's safe to say it is dead, so I want to do something about it so spread #savethedarkcrystal and let's revive the great fandom this is. thanks for your time :)
What are the Spriton famous for?
Not very beginning of June but...
Anyway, this month (or what's left of it) we (or at least I) are celebrating our favorite peaceful Grasslings, their traditions, their lifestyle, their art, their stories, their personality and of course, some of the characters we know and love.
What are the Spriton famous for?
Everything for the Spriton, from their clan colors to their clan symbol, is dedicated to agriculture and husbandry and no wonder that these are one of the things they are well-known for. However, Spriton are also skilled in different types of arts and crafts.
Spriton textiles for example can easily be distinguished by the exposed stitchwork in a way to show respect to the materials. This is due to the fact that Spriton favored needlework as a skill and were very proud with doing it properly. In fact, the mastery of this clan in textiles made them famous and wanted from many Gelfling, especially the Vapra and their dedication to fashion. Spriton were also great at crafting things with clay, once again by highlighting and sometimes coloring brightly the uniting parts.
Spriton also had a much different lyres than the other clans', having a seventh string made of Vapran metal to capture the voice of Thra. Their bolas were also renowned for being easier to throw and reaching things farther away due to their longer ropes and smaller stones.
The Spriton were one of the few clans known for dairy products - their cheeses. These came in a great variety - soft or hard, big or small - and were wanted by the other clans esspecially in big trade centers like Ha'rar.
And what about you? Whether you identify with the Spriton or look at them as strangers which one of the things they are famous for is your favorite and most meaningful - their arts and crafts, their husbandry and agriculture, their music, their weaponry, their food or something else?
---Any Spriton-inspired stories, fanart or ideas are welcome below---
It has been years since I have drawn anything from The Dark Crystal, so today I decided to try Skeksil, my favorite character. And I really like how he turned out!
I know the fandom is a bit inactive but this is an interesting idea I had so...
I am planning on starting this Months of the Seven clans event, dedicated to exploring traditions and cultures of the clans. In order to participate you can do anything really - draw fanart, tell stories, try to behave as someone from that clan, speak about you favorite characters, anything connected to the clan. I will also try to bring notice to some things about the clan. We are starting from June (if we do start) as the fandom isn't very active. If we do, then the order of the clans will be:
June - Spriton
July - Dousan
August - Sifa
September - Grottan
October - Stonewood
November - Drenchen
December - Vapra
What do you think?

I had a thought: “What if the Gelfling had another clan that resides in the ocean?” So I created Oona of the ocean-dwelling Mistsand. Hope you like her!
GENERAL INFORMATION
Species: Gelfling
Gender: Female
Occupation: Guard
Family: Unnamed parents
Clan: Mistsand
Residence: Great Thra Reef
Oona is a Gelfling from the planet Thra. She is of the Mistsand Clan, a clan that lives in the depths of Thra’s oceans. Long ago, during the Skeksis’ reign, the Pearl of Truth (the Crystal of Truth’s waterborne sister), felt the Crystal’s pain of abuse and corruption from the Skeksis. The pearl showed Maudra Delphina (the leader) and the whole clan the Skekeis’ actions and they were terrified. Delphina decided to take this information to All-Maudra Mayrin, but once she told her of the Skeksis’ true colors, Mayrin refused to believe it.
So after that, all the other clans cast the Mistsand Clan out, calling them liars and traitors. The Mistsand could no longer stand it so Delphina declared that they would stay hidden underwater and protect the Pearl of Truth; making sure it didn’t suffer the same fate as the Crystal. From all the time they stayed hidden, the other clans had forgotten about them as if the Mistsand never existed.
Oona stands guard at the shore in order to protect her home from invaders, however she wishes for her clan to be one with all Gelfling again and hopes that the other clans will learn the truth before it’s too late.

If Maudra means mother or clan mother in the Dark Crystal Universe...What would, and I will ask this, a male Maudra be called then ? A Maudren perhaps ?

Meet Windsor The Naked Gorilla. He was a student of Charles Darwin Middle School and he's going naked in the jungle. Now, he'll try anything else to do what's right.
I love dark crystal and it makes me sad on how small this community is and I know netflix stopped working on dark crystal age of resistance but I think the dark crystal needs a bigger community because of how good the franchise is.
I know the Netflix show is good but has anyone watched the OG movie and read creation myths book
I know that the Grottan tend to have a longer life expectancy then other gelfling but i don’t know how long is average for a gelfling to live.
