skekLi The Satirist Biography (Dark Crystal Explained) 

“And what of SkekLi?” SkekOk wanted to name drop the only one weaker than him.

I have a felling that when he appears in live action he might be my new favourite skeksis

Makes me wonder what happened to him during the events of the Dark Crystal.

Wait, so they were SekLi and UrLi and an Urskek's name is the combination of the last part of both names, so their Urskek name was Lili? Oh my god, its the Urskek version of Moon-Moon!

I think his story role will be that he was called back to the castle and chamberlain finding him a potential threat has him mad a fool of himself. Anger and wanting "respect" again, he seeks off for key gelfing figures only to eventually became sadistic.

*Note: In the video i mistakenly say skekLi appeared in "Shadows of the Dark Crystal," i meant "Song of the Dark Crystal."* Hope you all are staying safe and well my beautiful citizens of Thra! The Satirist should cheer you up. Or depress you even more. I'll be back next week with my Spriton bio, the last video in my Gelfling clan series! And don't forget to grab yourself a brand new Dreamfast with Me shirt or hoodie as well. I want to share those pictures! : shop.spreadshirt.com/shortstormy/dreamfast+with+me+channel+logo-A5e9ba1f2f937647bcfe6c5b4?productType=111&sellable=4wOmBD9VLeS5xgapqwxE-111-22&appearance=2 Much love

Ugh, skekLi is one of the skeksis I hate the most! He controls Tavra, nearly kills Naia, Kylan and all the Grottans, and gives those in the performing arts a bad name! I guess that might also be part of the reason I love Song of the Dark Crystal so much, though. You can't have a good book without having a compelling villain and he is that, if nothing else. The fact that I can identify with his status as an outcast makes his later actions in the book all the more horrific. Well, great video! Can't wait for the Spriton Clan installment! Second favorite clan, nearly tied for first with the Sifan, who win because of their willingness to accept all races into their clan.

This is one of the only skesis ive never heard of

ya know something, looking at SkekLi and hearing enough about that makes me think of something else, it makes me think that if all the Skeksis should ever perish, than SkekLi and SkekGra the Heretic maybe the only Skeksis alive.

It's unfortunate that skekLi didn't get to play his part in AoR, but I can understand why they cut his role. Each skeksis has lore and a story behind them, but including every single skeksis and their story complicates things. The TV/movie formate just isn't the best medium to express all of that. I have no doubt the lore of the TV series will be much simpler and vague due to the medium's shortcomings.

I wonder if skekLi and skekGra are still alive in the dark crystal movie

It'd be cool if skekLi appeared in Season 2 of the Dark Crystal AoR as the court jester, with a giggling and sometimes dark nature. Though sadly, thanks to Netflix, we'll never see him or any other new Skeksis characters (like skekSa) appear in the show. lol

Another great video, one day can you release a video about ever artificial and organic creatures that serve/served the skeksis?

Thanks for featuring my drawing of SkekLi! (the last drawing) :D

Well it could be possible that Skek'Li , Skek'Sa and Skek'Un are gonna appear in season 2, since season 1 ended with the Emperor and his fellow skeksis being rather desperate and a single garthim is not gonna be enough so who knows what the 3 arriveing skeksis appear could do. Not to mention Skek'Li could give Skek'Sil a run for his money, tho i haven't noticed the Treasurer and Slavemaster yet. So it is 5 skeksis who haven't appeared yet in the series

Leave a LIKE if you want SkekLi and his UrRu counterpart UrLii to make an appearance in Age of Resistance Season 2. Since SkekOk mentioned SkekLi before the Second Battle at Stone-In-The-Wood, it makes sense for it to foreshadow the other Skeksis to eventually find him and make SkekLi play a significant role in Season 2.

So he was responsible for that scary spider scene when Tavara wore that Darth Sidious cloak?

I feel like SkekLi might rival Chamberlain in during a flashback and later showing him making a shadowy figure in a abandoned woodland. SkekLi should a flexible and slippery Skeksis able to escaping capture, he be bit stronger and a theatrical thief. One of the his loyal lackey is a outcast Gelfling (similar to a Gollum like appearance) to assist him during early event of leaving Grot by freed him of his statue like prison. But, he seeks vengeance for his minion demised of a impalement of a metal spoon. (SkekSil framing Hup as the culprit.) UrLii should be who pretending to slow and quiet at times, only by revealing to be a active Mystic and only to Brea seeking his help. UrLii might be encouraged by SkekGra and UrGoh of trying to change his counterpart fate. But, SkekSil tricks SkekLi to betrayed UrLii. UrLii might sacrifice himself to keeping his counterpart from revealing the hidden locations of remaining Gelflings to the Emperor. Hup pleading UrLii not to die and he smiled at Hup knowing he'll see his friend again after his death. (UrVa). SkekLi should be voiced by Steve Jay Blum and UrLii should be voiced by Troy Baker. Also, UrLii knowledge Rian reminding him of a Gelfling he met long ago (Ordon).

Fantastic job! Keep up the excellence in entertainment!👏

0:40 to 1:21 It’s surprising that many people consider SkekLi’s trait as a Storyteller/Satirist to be useless. If anything, this is a very valuable trait for a Skeksis, especially for one whose name literally looks like “Skek-Lie.” You’d think that being a crafter of stories and a master manipulator would make SkekLi arguably even more cunning and sneaky than the Chamberlain, and that’s saying something. 1:12 , 1:39 and 2:21 2:54 , 3:47 and 4:31 It’s curious how SkekLi was able to cause so much trouble in the caves of Grot if his own counterpart UrLii was close by. You’d think UrLii wouldn’t let his dark half cause any harm if he could prevent it, especially if they were near each other. Strangely, UrLii and SkekLi don’t sound too different since they both mostly avoided their kinds and enjoy telling stories. The only difference (besides the obvious) between them are the purposes their stories serve. Yet another perfect representation of light and dark, and of how unique individuals can truly be.

man that intro is really nice, loving it my guy dude man

I cant wait to see him in season 2!

Oooooooh. I'm learning more than i knew existed. I really enjoy your content. You honor this old soul by sharing your passion. PEACE

I wonder when Dark Crystal part 2 will come out?! Keep up the AMAZING work!!! I always look forward to your videos!!!

I see the Hunter video and whach the season episode 4 and when you see the end of it when he was going to kill Rian his mask was fixed and when he escape his mask is gone and look closely and you will see to and I just noticed it to day

Definetly 3 and dang I feel bad for skekli, although he sounds cruel he was distant and kept him self away from the others and was usually seen lowly and now he's left in the cave all alone with nobody to see but just himself and just be stuck in fear forever

Do SkekEer The Spy Master.

I strongly believe we will see skekLi in the upcoming Season 2. I also hope @JimCarrey takes this role and takes the puppet for a spin too!

I loved 🥰 that movie 🎥 it’s amazing how each one lives in the world 🌎 of magic times ❤🎉 some good some bad thank you Jim Hanson god bless you for make people happy and for all your artistic work

because we have a lot in common

Do skekshod next please.

Do you think it's possible the gelfling of Thra are distantly related to the aliens in Avatar? I don't know why, but my last rewatch of Age of Resistance reminded me a lot of Avatar some reason.

What bugs me is that he's called the Satirist and there is not one iota of satirising in his story at all like, I was hoping for him being an actual satirist, because that would be *very* interesting given that satirists are kind of Trickster archetypes, not well-liked because of their mocking of Authority and Establishments.

Comment your favorite character in the dark crystal mine is the chamberlain skeksil. Edit I think that it was all the characters in the movie

I got a question : ) ! What if the skeksis never used the crystal to increase there lifespan ! How long could they have lived ? Same as the Gelfling? Skekmal never used the crystal and in age of resistance it seems he was the most healthy

Whoever sees the sun rise and fall and says the world is spinning is a fool who will live alone and ignored.

Great biography, the only thing you got wrong was skekli actually appeared in songs of the dark crystal not shadows.

It sounds like from how you worded it when he was frozen in place that wasn't like a temporary deal...

I want Gilbert Gottfried to play him or SkekNa in season 2. I think his voice is perfect for a Skeksis.

good

Dreamfast with me make a video about intresting Skeksis, who appear only in the books. Me: I need to get one of thoose books.....

Make a SkekGra biography plz

LiLii the Entertainer.

wow

Can you please do skekayuk next?

So Tavra was his vessel?

The pic of skek li in the thumbnail looks like the mososaur from jurassic world

A second chambelain...

SECOND!!!!!!!

So that's who skekLi is

How would one become a patron of the channel?

Did skekli die still frozen? Did he not starve to death or could they not if the urru were still being fed, or not? Did he die alone, did no one free him?

Are all these characters in the movie and or series.. im not familiar with any of them

First I think

Since the hunter died, maybe SkekLi can replace him in season 2.

Wait, wasn’t it confirmed that he was rescued by the other skeksis or am hallucinating that bit?

Took about skekgra

Second

It was once 696

first comment

do you ever worry that you’re making these videos prematurely? it seems like there’s a lot of information we have yet to learn about these characters in the future like in the potential AOR Season 2 for example

Where is skekgrah’s biography?

I'm gonna be honest. To me the name Skekli sounds very feminine and as a result of that I want them to make Skekli female like they did The Ornamentalist and Collector.

wrong Skekli never appeared in shadows of the dark crystal book
