She has a fair complexion her hair is long and fair, almost white and she is always barefoot. Kira wears a golden-brown dress and a brown cloak. Taught by the Podlings, Kira learned to converse with wild animals and is given to wandering the swamps outside the Podling village, accompanied by Fizzgig. Having escaped the slaughter of her people when hidden by her mother in a hollow tree trunk, Kira ended up wandering into a Podling village and was adopted by them. His creature and costume design were provided by Brian Froud and his designer and fabrication supervisor was Wendy Midener. He carries a flute around his neck, which he is shown playing at intervals, and an urRu token known as a firca.

His skin has a brown complexion and his hair is dark with fair (almost silver) streaks, and grows to shoulder-length. His upbringing by the lax urRu made him both deliberate and impatient.
Jen is a young male Gelfling and the protagonist of the film, having been raised by the urRu Master urSu from infancy when his family was slaughtered by the Garthim. Also, while the animatronic components of the original film's Gelfling puppets were controlled via cables, the mechanical parts of the new Gelfling were remotely operated via a modified Wii controller. In The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, the Gelfling puppets require only two puppeteers thus permitting greater freedom of movement. In the original film, it required four puppeteers to operate the Gelfling. At the end of the first film, the two are entrusted with the Crystal by the urSkeks. By time of the events of the first film, only Jen and Kira had survived one such massacre as the former seeks to fulfill the prophecy. When the Skeksis learned of this, they attempted using fabrications to deter the Gelfling before resorting to genocide with the newly-created Garthim. Eventually, the Gelfling learned that one among them was destined to find the Shard and restore the Crystal to its natural state alongside the urSkeks during an upcoming Great Conjunction. Each of the Gelfling Clans is led by a leader called a "Maudra" and the ruler of all the clans is named "All-Maudra". This started the events of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, which reveals that the Gelfling were organized as seven matriarchal clans who made their homes in areas of Thra consisting of the Stonewood Clan, the Spriton Clan, the Vapra Clan, the Grottan Clan, the Drenchen Clan, the Sifa Clan, and the Dousan Clan. Initially, the Gelfling coexisted with the Skeksis before learning of their malevolent actions in using the Dark Crystal to drain the surrounding lands of their life essence to prolong their lives while using the extracted essence of their enslaved kinsmen for rejuvenation purposes. The Gelfling once had a flourishing civilization with a writing system similar to hieroglyphics, having relied on Aughra during the Age of Innocence before the urSkeks' arrival, which hastened their development while they venerated the aliens for their advancement.
This is due to their innocence and naïvety. The name "Gelfling" is a transliteration of Ghel-lflainnk, which means "those who live without knowledge of the future". Gelfling also possess an ability called " dreamfasting" that allows them to psychically share thoughts, memories, and emotions through touch. The Marvel Comics adaptation of the film states that in the past, females could fly, but the wings have become vestigial. Female Gelfling have fairy-like wings that can be folded to fit easily under their clothing, allowing them to safely glide down from high places, even with the added weight of a second Gelfling holding onto them. They are slender, elvish humanoids with protracted facial structures who originally populated most of Thra, having three long fingers and a thumb on each hand. The Gelfling are the central protagonists of The Dark Crystal franchise. In the center is the Aureyal, the symbol of Gelfling unity.
In clockwise order Dousan, Drenchen, Sifa, Stonewood, Spriton, Grottan and Vapra.
