"In my life, I've done some things I'm not proud of. But I won't work for bosses who use people, or manipulate them. That's inconsiderate. But you? When I was mean to you, pushed you around and made you go to the tower with me? You got that I was just doin' my job and came anyway so we could be on time. That was real considerate. I will join you, tiny Jesse."

Slab the Immovable, more commonly referred to as Slab, is a character in Minecraft: Story Mode that appears in "A Journey's End?". He is voiced by Christopher Duncan.

Overview

Appearance

Slab has a muscular 2.5 block build. He wears black and white armor with spikes and a horned helmet. He also wears black war-gloves.

Personality

Slab, being the head of the gladiators, likes being in-charge and does not like being pushed around, or being told what to do. However, he is shown to be grateful, and appreciates Jesse if he/she shows him appropriate respect.

​​Death (Determinant, respawned)

Killed by:

• Mevia

When fighting against Hadrian and Mevia, Slab will push Jesse out of the way of the TNT and then sacrifice himself on top of the TNT. However, this is only if Jesse ignores Sebastian on the way to Hadrian's Palace and doesn't insult the Gladiators during "The Walls." He then later respawns.

"Let me finish! You made me late when I was just trying to do my job, and that was real inconsiderate too. *AND* then you really rubbed it in my face, reminding me I couldn't kill you. Hrmph. Even though I really wanted to at the time. I think I need some time to be my own boss."

—Slab to Jesse. (Determinant) ^src

Trivia

• Slab's Armor appears to be similar to the armor of Dragonborn from the trailer of Skyrim.
• If Jesse chooses to follow Slab on the way to Hadrian's Palace and not to insult him in the field of "The Walls," he will help Jesse during his fight against Hadrian and Mevia by sacrificing himself on a block of TNT which would kill Jesse instead.
  • Later, during the conclusion of the Episode, he will also give Lukas's Journal back to him. Lukas will ask Jesse to add a conclusion to his journal later in the Order Hall, and Jesse can decide if Lukas' journal can be displayed as a treasure in the Hall.
• Slab's nickname, "The Immovable," may possibly be attributed to the fact that Pistons in Minecraft cannot move slabs in certain directions.
• Slab's appearance is very similar to Gabriel and TNT Dustin, however, he has a bigger build.
• Slab the Immovable, alongside Axel, Reuben (Human), Facemeat, Clutch, Emily, Capital T, Rodrigo, other Gladiators, and other bodyguards have 2.5 block builds in Minecraft: Story Mode.
• "Immovable" was spelled as "Immoveable" twice in the subtitles of Episode 8. "Immovable" and "immoveable" are interchangeable in the English grammar.
• One thing that breaks Minecraft's logic is that when Lukas and Petra/Ivor "die," Slab throws TNT at Jesse and the TNT destroys the Obsidian. This cannot happen in normal Minecraft.
