The Creation Process

After a lot of research and watching the movies man, many times the Gelfling have made their way to the RPG realm. I wrote this fantasy race with my kids running around, at the kitchen table, which is oddly fitting to these little beings. :-)

Also, one could say that this race has an innate ability with music; however, that is hard to fully state just from the movie.

Suggestions

• The Dark Crystal Soundtrack
• The Movie The Dark Crystal
• The Dark Crystal Font
• The Wolrd of the Dark Crystal
