- "Slip didn't mean to oversleep, Slip's a good worker, he is. He'll get up now. Get to work at once..."
- —Slip[4]
Slip was a grey goblin scuttler from the Eastern Woods, who traveled with Nate Quarter across the Edgeworld after leaving his job at the Prade Phraxmine.
Role in The Immortals[]
Slip was a sweeper in the phraxmines of Galston Prade where he worked for twelve years. He overheard a conversation of Grint Grayle and warned Nate that he was to be punished[5]. After Rudd's death, Slip helped Nate escape the phrax mine[6]. Nate took Slip with him to Great Glade, where the two companions became close friends. In Great Glade, Slip enjoyed growing vegetables, especially blue pumpkins[7].
During the journey from Great Glade to the Midwood Decks, Slip became skilled with a blackwood bow and hunted animals for the party.
When Nate decided to become a descender, Slip and Eudoxia stayed in Sanctaphrax to rebuild the old city.
Personality[]
Slip was somewhat dim from working as a scuttler for so many years in the phraxmines, but he was a loyal and faithful companion. His health and state of mind continuously got better once he left the Prade Phraxmine.
