Gelflings

The **Gelfling**are the main protagonists of *The Dark Crystal* franchise. They were a race native and closest to Thra.

## Society and Culture

Gelfling were split into seven different clans: Vapra,
Drenchen, Sifa, Stonewood, Dousan, Grottan and Spriton. They were a matriarchal
society, ruled by a Maudra (or Queen), but they were all ruled  the All-Maudra, who was also the Maudra of
her own clan as well. Though split, the Gelflings were travelers and lovers of
song and music. They were mostly peaceful, with their greatest joy being in
song, dance and story-telling.

## Powers and abilities

All the Gelfling are the closest creatures of Thra to be
close to the planet. Most of the Gelfling were father's and connected to other
plants and animals. A notable ability is that all Gelfling are able to
dreamfast. When two or more Gelfling were in direct contact with one another,
they would be able to see each other's memories and share each other's
thoughts. If people go into a deeper trance, they were powerful enough to make
dream sketches. For example, when the Gelfling Rian dreamfasted with Tavra,
Naia, Gurjin, and Ordon, an image of the Aureyal, a symbol that Brea saw was
made on the table. They could also dreamfast their thoughts into objects.

With females, they had wings on their back and had the
ability to fly.

## Physical appearance

Gelfling were an elf-like race who had triangular shaped
faces, flat noses and wide eyes. They were typically short, racing five-foot
two. They had long hair that would range from blonde to brown to red, brown,
hazel or blue eyes, and large, pointed ears.Most Gelfling boys and girls were
considered a beautiful and handsome race. Gelfling girls were also the only
ones in the race who could have wings and fly with relative ease. However, by
Jen's quest, the girls could only use their wings to show down their falls.
