I need to read up more on the Dark Crystal at some point; a lot has been done since I wrote up that document, and there are new Skeksis and Mystics now, aren't there? Maybe we've got enough to fill the whole set!

I see! And I suppose so ^^

Hmm, this is tricky...so it looks like those two characters from the graphic novel got retconned? SkekCru the Mariner's got the name "SkekSa" and is female (with urSan the Swimmer as her counterpart), while SkekEer the Spy Master is nowhere to be seen...in his place is SkekLi the Satirist (with urLii the Storyteller as his counterpart). So I guess SaSan was a Marine Biologist of sorts, while LiLii was a writer/poet while OkAc handled history?
Several pages I've seen pair SkekVar (General) and SkekMal (Hunter) with UrMa (Peacemaker) and UrVa (Archer) respectively, and I can't help but feel they should be the other way around, given the pattern of their names. If I'm mistaken, then that would make VarMa a Diplomat and MalVa a martial artist of some sort...although now that I think about it, even swapping them around would still make this work; VarVa as a martial artist and MalMa as a Diplomat.
Three pairings remain, only one of whom actually has titles for both halves; SkekGra the Conqueror and urGoh the Wanderer, who as GraGoh was presumably once a cartographer or explorer or something. The other two are YiYa and HakHom, both of whom were killed during the Great Conjuction - providing I've read them correctly, the articles online suggested that SkekHak strangled UrYa, killing SkekYi, and also kicked UrHom into the shaft, killing himself in the process. Only UrHom is given a title; the Carpenter, and the Wiki has already concluded that SkekHak would have had some skill in building or architecture...so that just leaves YiYa with no known skills.
If I were to speculate, using the potential jobs I listed in the last document (Astronomer, Geologist, Linguist, and Zoologist)...hmm, well, now that I think about it, with SkekEer removed from this list, ZokZah could have been an Astronomer as well, considering how the 'rituals' he oversaw probably required one to study the stars and the conjunction of the Moons. Zoologist...could possibly have been a secondary job of UngIlm (after all, his healing knowledge wouldn't have been much help on Thra if he didn't study the local wildlife), which helps to explain why he leads the Garthim. This leaves just two...and technically either of them could be gifted to one of their fellows; the ability to easily translate languages would have been a hugely useful skill for LiLii or OkAc, while HakHom's carpentry skills could have been originally used for shoring up stone tunnels carved out of the Castle of the Crystal. Admittedly, though, as I write that, I find myself thinking it odd that a urRu would choose to focus on building things and not the science of the rocks of Thra, so I guess YiYa was the team Geologist...

I see. Sometimes I go through rough patches, but none as bad as that - just keep in mind, eventually, it'll pass. I'm sorry you're going through this. Getting back with medication and help from a neurologist should help. I know it sounds pointless, but try keeping yourself occupied - reading, drawing, watching stuff if you can.
