Slough Throt
Slough Throt is a character from the 2000 AD strip Sláine. Having become a Drune Lord after shedding his human flesh, Throt grew powerful and got a lust for it.
When he learns that his master, the Lord Weird Slough Feg, is attempting to create Ragnarok with his dark magic, Throt becomes horrified at the idea of having no one to control. Making a copy of Feg's sinister plans, Throt attempted to flee and give the plans to a group of Druids to stop his former master. On his way, he hunted down Sláine and forced him to serve as his bodyguard under threat of wiping out a small village if he did not comply.
During this time, Feg attempted to kill Slough Throt a great many times, resulting in Throat spending a lot of the time yelling, "Sláine, help me!". There were also several instances where Throt caused himself trouble, resulting in him going, "Sláine, help me!" yet again. One of the later of these instances was setting off a volcano to knock down pirate airships, while his airship was not clear of the blast. This resulted in the ship crashing and killing nearly all of the passengers.
After this happens, Throt, Sláine, Ukko, and a merchant (quickly savaged to death) are surrounded by forest animals controlled by Feg's magic. Throt created a magic circle keeping out the animals. Unfortunately, however, this failed to stop worms sent by Feg's god, the worm-god Crom-Cruach, from tunnelling up from the ground and swarming him, eating him alive in seconds. Before Throt died, he told Sláine of his master's plans.
