Slab

For other uses, see Earth Dragon (disambiguation).

“Now, listen, fellas, don't you go down in the first few seconds. Watch out for Slab's breath. It can bury you. If you know what I mean. Hey, and if Slab ever gets you cornered, best not fight it. Just play dead. He'll get bored eventually.”

Slab is an Earth Dragon that was captured by the Dragon Hunters and was used to fight prisoners for the Hunters' entertainment. He escaped with the help of Firstbourne and the ninja, and later brought back Cole to Ninjago.

History

Hunted

Iron & Stone

He appears as part of the Dragon Hunters' entertainment, where he is put in the Pit with a prisoner, and he is expected to kill them. Zane, Kai, and Jay are thrown into the Pit, and Slab is put to fight them.

He is shown to chase them around the Pit for some time until Cole and Wu throw the ninja a chain to subdue him.

While on the ground, Slab is about to blast Jay with his Earth breath when Zane uses his Elemental Power of Ice to freeze Slab's head. This display causes the Hunters and Iron Baron to realize the ninja are Elemental Masters, not Oni as believed.

How to Build a Dragon

Slab was released from the Dead's End by Kai, along with the Wind and Fire Dragons, after the Firstbourne attacks and they escape to their mother.

Lessons for a Master

After Wu tames the Firstbourne, the dragon Matriarch summons Slab as well as a Fire Dragon, an Ice Dragon and a Lightning Dragon in order for Cole and the other ninja to get back to Ninjago.

Green Destiny

Slab follows its fellow dragons through a portal that forms in the skies of Ninjago. It helps Cole save his friends from the Sons of Garmadon. Cole later flies on the dragon to evacuate the citizens and destroy the Colossus.

In the end, Slab and the other dragons return to their realm.

Abilities

• Flight - Like most dragons, Slab can flight using his wings.

• Realm travel - Slab possesses the ability to traverse between realms.

• Earth - As an Earth Dragon, Slab has control over the Earth elemental power.
  • Geokinetic Breath - He can breathe and expel earth from his mouth.
• Oni Blood Detection - Like the other dragons, Slab can smell the blood of Oni hybrids.

Weakness

• Slowness - Slab is slow and lumbering, and cannot fly at fast speeds (unlike the Wind Dragon and Lightning Dragons).
