~ Slan's thoughts about Griffith's rape of Casca while Guts is forced to see the whole thing. |
Slan is a major antagonist in the Berserk franchise. She is a member of the God Hand, whom takes on the form of a succubus with black leathery wings and vine-like hair. She is a sadomasochist who thrives on cruelty and the effect it has on those who observe it.
In the 1997 anime and the Berserk Millennium Falcon Arc: Chapter of the Holy Demon War game, she was voiced in Japanese by the late Atsuko Tanaka and Suzanne Gilad in the English dub, with Miyuki Sawashiro later voicing her and Cindy Robinson in the English dub in Berserk: The Golden Age Arc III - The Advent, the Berserk and the Band of the Hawk game and the 2016 anime. In the 2016 anime, she was voiced in English by Allegra Clark.
Appearance[]
Slan takes on the form of a succubus with black leathery wings and vine-like hair. Her wings are always with her, making them one of her more distinguishable features.
The only piece of clothing she wears is a corset that (ironically) covers only from her navel to below her breasts. This leaves her sizable breasts exposed as well as her vulva, although she partially covers them up with her wings.
Personality[]
Slan is a sadomasochist who thrives on cruelty and the effect it has on others. Slan appears to have a fascination with Guts, as seen when she manifested in the Qliphoth to confront him, having as well shown an interest in his incredible strength and survivability when The Count summoned the God Hand. She seems to be infatuated with Guts as she calls him "Darling" and enjoyed seeing every negative feeling Guts was feeling, and tries to tempt him into using the behelit in his possession.
Biography[]
Golden Age Arc[]
During the Eclipse, Slan along with the rest of the God Hand welcomes Griffith as one of them and witnesses as he becomes Femto. Slan also watches as Casca is raped and Guts is forced to watch, due to the high levels of pain and misery in the moment she weeps due to the "beauty" of it.
The Black Swordsman Arc[]
She appears when the God Hand is summoned by the Count in order to prevent his own impending death.
Tower of Conviction Arc[]
During the Incarnation Ceremony, Slan, along with the other members of the God Hand, briefly manifested using the dead body of The Bubblehead (one of Bishop Mozgus' disciples) and several of the evil spirits that had gathered in order to witness Femto's rebirth.
Millenium Falcon Arc[]
As Guts was fighting the trolls in Qliphoth, Slan gained physical form by manipulating the intestines of the dead trolls. Slan restrained Guts and tried to convince Guts into becoming an Apostle. Thanks to Skull Knight's interference, Guts managed to free himself from Slan and destroyed her physical body with Dragonslayer sword. Slan kissed Guts before returning to the astral world.
Powers and Abilities[]
She has the ability to manifest in the physical world. She was last seen using this ability when confronting Guts in Qliphoth, where she manifested as troll intestines. She could also create monsters out of thin air. Like the other God Hand she can see the future and manipulate causality.
