Slug is one of the main characters of the webcomic Raider and Kid. Slug is introduced as a rather sweet colt who just happens to have a raider, Bullet Holes, for a mother. He is often seen cheering her on or actively supporting her.
Overview[]
Slug goes on a date with the raider filly Nails, during the special Hearts and Hooves day prequel comic centered around him.
Slug is a raider colt with a loving mother. He has been shown, practicing with his magic which is well controlled though lacks the strength of more powerful users. He was taught how to use a sawed-off shotgun by his mother, which likely resulted in his cutie mark.
Slug has been shown patching up his mother after firefights, which hints at some medical knowledge at least basic level. His mother also got a pony to teach him to read, by threatening to kill the pony if they didn't. Slug is not the best shot, his mother has scolded him about wasting ammunition before.
When a group of mercenaries moved in to attack him and his mother, he was overwhelmed by three mercenaries who proceeded to try and beat him to death with their hooves. His mother rescued him and killed his attackers, but was then assaulted by their fellow raider Shrapnel who revealed himself as a traitor.
Shrapnel beat Slug's mother and was on the verge of killing her, when Slug levitated his Shotgun over to the attacking Stallion and blew his face off. Slug presumably died from his injuries asking his mother to sing him a song and was buried by Bullet Holes. He was dug up by a Unity alicorn, shortly afterwards.
Relationships[]
Bullet Holes - Slug loves his mother deeply, often cautioning her or cheering her on. He views his mother as heroic, given how often she has saved him from hazards, like cazadorables or radigators.
Nails - Slug was very nervous about asking the filly out on Hearts & Hooves day, but after some encouragement from his mother, Slug asks the raider filly out. The two go out on a short date where Nails clears a hole in the clouds so they can kiss under the moonlight.
