Slim, the Skag Rider
Left in the wilderness of Pandora at birth, Slim was raised by Skags since his birth. At first, he lived in harmony with them, but then Handsome Jack tore down his den when building an Eridium mine. He got on the train with his Skag, Phil to get revenge. You know, basic every day Pandora stuff.

Skill
Skag Cavalry - Slim jumps onto Phil. Phil moves faster, jumps higher and further, is more resistant to damage, and hits a hell of a lot harder. However, Slim can't aim or throw grenades while on Phil. Reactivate to get off of Phil. When you aren't on Phil, Phil follows you around, attacking enemies.
Duration: Until you get off the damn thing.
Cooldown: 5 seconds (That is not an error.)

TL;DR: Get on Skag, move faster and kill faster, get off Skag, Skag kills things.

A Man and His Skag
Focuses on Phil and gives you skills that effects him more than you, both on and off of him.

Tier 1 (5 Ranks): Three Jawed Offensive - Grants Phil additional melee damage per rank.
Tier 1 (5 Ranks): Pack Mentality - Phil and Skid gain additional damage per rank if they are attacking the same target. If Skid is riding Phil, the bonus also applies.

Tier 2 (5 Ranks): Feeding Time - Kill Skill: Killing enemies sometimes causes them to drop Skag food. Phil can pick up the Skag food to regain health and gain additional damage reduction for a few seconds.
Tier 2(5 ranks): Horned Hemorrhage - Phil Melee Override - Phil gains horns. In addition, while running, Phil's melee attacks knock back enemies, dealing more damage to enemies with low health.

Tier 3 (5 Ranks): Saliva Salvo - Phil can shoot Skag acid at enemies. The element for the initial damage is the same element Phil currently is, but the DoT is Corrosive. While riding Phil, press the grenade button to use Saliva Salvo.
Tier 3 (1 Rank): Moonlit Howl - Phil sometimes randomly howls at the moon, granting everybody near him damage and health regeneration.
Tier 3 (5 Ranks): Stick the Landing - When Phil lands from a jump, he creates a shockwave that damages nearby enemies. The higher and further he jumps, the more damage he deals. This can be used while riding Phil as well.
