urVa definitively best UrRu, because he went like a true mad lad. A bit of a correction on urSan, as far as I been told, by those that read the book (Tides of the Dark Crystal) there is no indication the Swimmer was female. Many (Included myself) implied urSan to be female because skekSa the Mariner identified as such, although it is important to note, the UrSkeks were neither male nor female. Jim Henson wanted to keep it like that as during the production of the film he realized there were many male characters but only two females (Kira and Aughra), so when designing the Ornamentalist, he decided to make skekEkt effeminate, without implying specific gender, keeping the creatures mysterious, specially when it came to their true identity, as the UrSkeks were alien to Thra. Although, I would not oppose urSan been one, it would make it interesting if we get Season 2 of TDC AoR. A personal belief of mine is since the UrSkeks species evolve into a higher level of existence by studying the Crystal of their home world, overtime, they lost these mortal mundane traits, since they all became immortal and therefor had no reason to reproduce, in the process losing their Genders. Since the Skeksis and Mystics are crude split Physical Manifestations of the UrSkeks selves, what ever left of that biology, may had been re-instated (for the lack of a better word) into the crude forms. Also: the UrSkeks split was BEFORE the Crystal was cracked. Both the film and Dark Crystal Creation Myths volume 2 show this.

Both act as leader to the Sifa (someone correct me if I misunderstood this) but if we get S2 it will be with parts of Tides of the Dark Crystal as part of the seasons plot as they will be a 3rd pair of importance to the plot after Mal/Va & Grah/Goh.

My fave would have to be the Archer cause his tale ends so sadly. He wanted to be rejoined with his counterpart and to become one again. Yet in the end he bravely sacrificed himself to stop all of the evil his other self was doing. Makes you wonder why the others didn't do the same to stop theirs from wounding and further damaging Thra. Or heck! Use that as leverage! They send an envoy saying "Hey! Stop killing Gelflings and ravaging Thra are else we're gonna end your reign of terror the only way we know how...by taking you down with us, literally"
@avosmash21217 ай бұрын
That's a very interesting consideration. However taken to further consideration, the one flaw mainly with the Uru is the fact that they are more or less full-blown pacifists. Technically remember that the skeksis and the uru are not good and evil, per se. They are kind of more like a representation of Id (Self Preserving, Short Term Pleasure, Fear, Emotion, Reptile Brained, Energy/Action) and SuperEgo (Avoidance, Restraint, Patience, Civilization/Laws, Communal Identity, Empathy, Guilt, Diplomatics, Sacrifice, Restraint/Inaction.) With arguably the original forms of the Urskek being Ego, the objective pragmatic balance in-between the two, the one who decides when to act/take care of the Self and when to wait/take care of Others first. You need both these aspects in a harmonious healthy balance in order to be a functional person and in order to be a functional long lasting culture.

You can even see the Emperor holding his scepter with a scrawny, minuscule arm, handing it to his dominant arm before unleashing the Darkening upon the Gelfling. The Mystics hunch over while the Skeksis stand tall, but biologically speaking, any anatomy that doesn't match between the two is so small, it really wouldn't be worth it to attack.

0:29 to 0:46 It’s interesting that SkekOk was the smallest Skeksis, but UrAc was just as big as the other UrRu, if not larger. It makes me wonder if he was more good than evil in his UrSkeks form. 0:51 to 1:09 Other than the Gourmand, all the other Skeksis are very skinny and withering, while all the UrRu appear well fed and look taller than the Skeksis when they stand up right. 1:14 to 1:33 It’s interesting and a little ironic the UrAmaj and UrNol worked together, given that UrAmaj was one of two in arguably the most similar pair, while UrNol is one of two in the most opposite pair. As mentioned in other videos, UrAmaj and SkekAyuk are very similar since they are both cooks, while UrNol and SkekNa could not be more opposite, since “an herb tender and a Slave master have absolutely nothing to do with each other.” I cannot be the only one to see a little irony in that. I love all of the UrRu, whether they’re well known or not. It’s too bad they don’t get as much screen time as the Skeksis, especially on the show. But regardless, I want to see more Dark Crystal on screen.

Strictly speaking, they are all hermaphroditic, like a slug, but only their original complete forms were capable of breeding. Some were so evenly both across their good and bad elements that both counterparts after the division remained sexually ambiguous, but in SOME, one became distinctly more female and the other male. The General, without a doubt, has always been the most masculine of the Skeksis, and his Uru the most Feminine of her kind. Of course the reverse is true in at least one other pair. For one, their masculine side was more toxic, the other, their feminine side was worse.

I have a question; If the urskeks were split into two, does that mean their name is also split into two? Like urgoh and skekskra's real name would be gohskra (if I got the names right)?
@droopsmoop5 жыл бұрын
I think the Skek name comes first and then the urRu name, so ot would be Skragoh

@@droopsmoop Their urskek name is GraGoh Ur is in front of every urru name because they are urrus, same with skek for the skeksis, the unique parts of their names are about half of what the urskeks name was SkekSo and UrSu= SoSu SkekOk and UrAc= OkAc Etc, etc

I bet some KZbinrs, actors and some voice actors should voiced some UrRus. My list UrSan by Orangiah OhRanger! UrLii by Troy Baker UrSol by Caleb Hyles UrSu by Keith David UrYm by Markiplier UrYod by Eric Bauza UrSen by Anna Akana UrTih by David Tennant UrAc by Jeffery Combs UrNol by Will Arnett UrMa by David Kaye UrZah by Phil LaMarr UrAmaj by Brock Baker UrUtt by Brock Baker again. I'm just guessing at this point. I thought it be hilarious Chanter in his youth being rebellious at first and hearing singing would anger the Chamberlain not being excellent singer when not together. Keith David as UrSo started a powerful voice of leadership before his begins to get raspy switching with Eric Bauza. As for Orangiah, here's the link why she be perfect for this character kzbin.info/www/bejne/boXXo356i5Vpa80 Her singing would sum up UrSan personality. Why Markiplier? He would set conflicting moment with SkekUng in a dream of preventing him extermination of the Gelflings. Even though fail, it be touching moment for UrYm being called a "gentle Mystic" by Brea and she get mercy moment with SkekUng when mentioned his Mystic counterpart, letting her run away. Only when SkekNa temporary taking control of the Garthim army to find the remaining Gelflings. Plus, UrYm is seen crying while watching Gelflings be caught by Skeksis hands and UrSol encouraging him to help them. But, he refused to break the rules of UrSu's wishes. No matter it hurts him. UrSan, should showing her teaching a Drenchen Gelfling (voice by Annapantsu) to ward off Skeksis for a brief time by singing like a Mystic.

Because the mystics could not at the time bare that they had counterparts who were that shameful. They left the castle and began their journey far away for a reason, it would take them a very long time to accept they were two halves of the same whole again. Its the part of the urSkek that was ashamed of their dark hearts of which the Skeksis represent. Its something they had to come terms with, that they despite how noble and wise they were were part of a creature or being once that was capable of which things hen they themsleves were so pure and wise. The wondered and his counterpart were both unique in that they knew thats something they had to face, with the Wanderer being the first to finally accept what they were.

Am I the only one humbly prefering the Mystics from the movie ? Because of their deep veiled eyes, sorrow expressions and solemnity. The Mystics from the recent serie just look whimsical and "high" (like a mix of Falkor and Peter Jackson's Radagast), just too light, slow and goofy, more than deep, wise and patient. The enchantment broke on me. (fortunately, everything else in the serie was absolutely marvelous and bewitching!)

Archer is the best of them. He is the only urRu willing to protect Thra from the ravages of the Skeksis. When all the others allowed the Skeksis' many genocides, Archer sacrificed himself to save Augra. The urRu could have saved the Gelfling, the Gruenak and all the others killed off by Skeksis, but chose instead to value themselves and their reunification over Thra itself

Can anyone tell me the background music to this video? It's beautiful and so peaceful. :) I love the Mystics. I think the urSkeks splitting into the Mystics and Skeksis is one of the most interesting things about The Dark Crystal. I also love how Age of Resistance fleshed out the Gelfling race, something the Gelflings really needed. LOL But back to the Mystics, I know the Skeksis tend to be more popular among fans, but as fun as the Skeksis are, it's always refreshing to see the Mystics. Not only would I feel safe with them, I love how gentle, kind, and peaceful they are. I could spend a whole day with them and listen to their wisdom. :) The only thing that might bug me about them is their, um...lack of speed. XD

So what you think?, to which I think it's the perfect role for these two.
