Mystic Counterpart urAt gades1980.deviantart.com/art/u…

SkekRal lead the works of the Castle's remodeling along with SkekNa when the Skeksis took control. In the days when the Skeksis radiated in light, SkekRal would constantly visit the villages and assist in the construction of the houses and temples, just like when he did as RalAt the UrSkek Carpenter. He knew which material would be the best to make the strongest and safest structures. He was well known for been stronger than SkekUng the Garthim Master.

However, when the Skeksis began to corrupt, SkekRal used his knowledge to assist SkekUng the Garthim, SkekVar the General & SkekLach the Collector in the raids. He would always suggest them how to use the Architectural design of the villages as a way to lure the Gelflings & Poddlins into dead ends. Once he had his own set of slaves, he use them to constantly maintain the Castle and knew the Castle more than anyone.

During on one of these maintenance works, a section of a Hallway collapse over him. The injuries were quite severe, suffering the lost of his two arms and left leg. SkekTek the Scientist immediately replaced them with mechanical limbs. He installed tubes on his neck that replaced the damaged jugulars.

He was quite a rival to SkekUng the Garthim Master and SkekNa the Slave Master. Always bragging how weak the two were compared to him, and hated SkekSo passionately. He thought he should be Emperor because of all the works that was done, he wanted the recognition, he wanted the control, He wanted the power. His demise was settled when he challenged SkekSo in the Trial by Stone, confident he could win it with the brute strength he had...

But the Emperor has never lost a challenge.

The Skeksis cheered as SkekSo won, and the Emperor watched in pleasure as SkekUng the Garthim Master and SkekNa the Slave Master slowly mutilated the once proud Architect. The others mocked around SkekRal as he painfully died.
