Movies - SkekSil


In the 1982 film, The Dark Crystal
, skekSil is the Chamberlain of the Skeksi race. The Skeksis
are the cruel rulers of the planet Thra
, and the mirror images of the gentle and kind urRu. As Chamberlain, skekSil is second in line to the Skeksi throne.

Pre-production notes for the film describe the Chamberlain as resembling an overstuffed chair, with springs, sawdust, horsehair, webbing, sacking, and underfelt layered under a carapace of carved animal limbs and a collar like a headboard. In the book The World of the Dark Crystal, skekSil's personality is described as "smiling poison and suspicious craft". Other allusions ascribed to the Chamberlain are:
  • Administrator
  • Golem
  • King Lear
  • Secretary
SkekSil's alter ego on the planet is the good and harmonious Chanter urSol of the urRu race.
