Naia - Drenchen Gelfling Full-Body Puppet - Jim Henson Company 70th Anniversary Auction on Julien's Auctions, sold for $16,000 - Lot 108

"A full-body puppet of Naia (performed by Beccy Henderson and voiced by Hannah John-Kamen), a Gelfling of the Drenchen Clan, who serves as a major supporting character in the prequel series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (Netflix, 2019). Puppet sculpted by Matt Rose.

Naia enters the story after her twin brother, Gurjin, disappears. Unbeknownst to her, Gurjin allowed himself to be captured by the Skeksis in order for Rian to escape The Castle of the Crystal. When Naia finally tracks down Rian, she intends to kidnap him and exchange him to the Skeksis for Gurjin. Rian convinces Naia to dreamfast with him in order to show her what happened to Gurjin, which she reluctantly agrees to before ultimately believing him after she sees it for herself. Naia is able then to free Gurjin from The Castle of the Crystal, and they both dreamfast with Rian again. Only this time, they are all transported to the Dream Space by Aughra, along with other characters such as Brea and Deet. It is here that Aughra tasks them all with saving their dying world by fighting back against the Skeksis. Afterwards, Naia and Gurjin take it upon themselves to inform the other Gelfling clans of the need for fight and resistance. When Rian and company need reinforcements for the final showdown between the Skeksis in the Second Battle of Stone-in-the-Wood, all of the other clans appear to fight beside them, including Naia with other members of the Drenchen Clan.

This a full-body version of the Naia puppet, which includes her entire torso as well as a pair of legs. Like all Gelflings in the Drenchen clan, Naia features blue and green skin tones, identifiable bumps on her forehead, and fin-like scalloped ears. She is dressed in a wool hooded cloak with a painted Drenchen clan emblem on the back, which she is seen in her first appearance in the fourth episode of the series, “The First Thing I Remember is Fire.”

The puppet's head is made of sculpted and hand-painted foam latex with donated human hair punched into it. Its elaborate costume is comprised of a silk-blend, two-layered tunic with surface embroidery, metallic threading, beading, trim detail underneath, and belted with leather. The layers of the tunic are inner-padded for shaping. Its legs are covered in Jersey-style leggings and cotton socks that are painted. Built inside of the puppet's head is a metal plate with two screws backed with magnets and affixed to the glass taxidermy eyes. Naia's face was fully animatronic and controlled via remote control. The body of the puppet is an articulated pod with foam arms and legs with inner wooden dowels to create bone structures. The arms of the puppets were created to be foam latex up to the elbow and then have the ability to be Velcro'd on and off for easy replacement, as damage was a regular occurrence because of prop usage or rod replacement.

This puppet comes posed and mounted on a stand custom-built by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, featuring an identifying emblem.

Dimensions: Overall: 37.25 x 17.5 x 18 inches"

Dark Crystal Interest Check Poll Below

So, I've been vibing on Dark crystal for a while, and I've been putting some work in on Echos of Rebellion, fic coming soon. But, my friend introduced me to the concept of ArtRPGs, and I'm a little intrigued by the process on making one. So, since I've got a lot of work done for the TTRPG I haven't gotten to run for dark crystal, I'm putting some feelers out on possibly doing an Arpg for Dark crystal.

And yes I know how things end, I have a work around for that. So the game would be fine.

This would likely be hosted through toyhouse on a private discord and such, I'm still working that out. I may also make a community for it here, nothing is decided yet.

But this is a general interest check, some things I know will be happening-

Races that can for sure be playable:

-Gelflings

-Firelings

-Podlings

-Constructs

-certain kinds of Arathim (per the rpg book)

-Makrak

-Gruenak (possibly, under review)

All the clans will be playable, as well as a few additional things that will be discussed later.

Skeksis, Mystics, and Urskeks are locked to npcs, for story purposes.

There will be pets.
