So on Tumblr, it’s easier to post such things as thoughts on your own characters, but, I feel I should do it here. It’s nice to open up discussions about OCs, so, feel free to bring up your Skeksis and UrRu friends in the comments! It’s great fun to speak about how they may interact, especially with the RP blog I’ve created!
So, my thoughts The Minor Conjunction Series:
· SkekSept has evolved a lot from his first creation. He was a revamp of an old childhood character, from a story called ‘Forever Life’ which was based upon The Dark Crystal, among other things. Initially he was more like SkekUng but shifted into a similar design to the Chamberlain.
· Originally, SkekSept was an actual child, rather than physically in his mid/late teens when he first appears.
· SkekSept and Chamberlain’s relationship mimicked that of parent and child, faintly during their brief time as friends. The fact that he was the first of the elder skeksis to show him kindness, however false, left a great impact on SkekSept that he has trouble forgetting, even when he learns better. Such is the influence of ill-fitting parents.
· SkekSik’s redemption is an unexplored plot-point. In one version, he remains the wilderness with SkekHdax and SkekSept, who shed their youth in the peace away from the castle … and raise a family of their own, and it is their child, SkekSemba, who must confront the elders long after SkekSik passes peacefully from old age. He WILL appear in the sequel series, I hope.
· SkekSept is the more emotional of the two Urskeks that came to this planet, and therefore, prone to losing his way. There’s darkness in him, as in everyone.
· SkekSept can sing, but does not know it.
· SkekHdax becomes proficient with a dual-curled blade. In one verse, she is apprentice under SkekUng himself.
· SkekMojo and SkekRoza are part of a new batch of skeksis, who each have unique attributes due to the new nature of the Crystal of Truth. They only appear in the universe coming from the ‘dark’ ending to my series. (In It’s Darkness)
· Feel free to ask more! (They have their own web-page now.)
