Slar on the USS Defiant

Slar battles Archer

In the Mirror Universe, Slar was a Gorn slave master of the Tholian Assembly. He was the headmaster of the salvage team assigned to strip the USS Defiant. Essentially the leader over a specific slave group, Slar's orders were to gut the parallel universe starship. But during the gutting of the ship, it was boarded by invading forces from the ISS Enterprise of the Terran Empire.

Slar was the master of seven slaves assigned to disassemble the Defiant. When the Defiant escaped the Tholian space dock, Slar began killing several of the Terran crew members, including Kelby, and stole several key components of the warp engines. Slar contacted Jonathan Archer, demanding a shuttlecraft to leave the ship. Archer refused, saying this was not a negotiation.

Slar was killed in an ensuing battle against Archer in a corridor of the Defiant. Archer had T'Pol increase the polarity of the gravity plating in the corridor, forcing Slar to the ground under an increased gravitaional force. Archer then shot Slar several times with a phase rifle. (ENT: In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II")

Unlike the Gorn seen in the original series episode "Arena", this Gorn was computer generated and not a rubber suit. However stunt coordinator Vince Deadrick Jr. provided the movements of Slar in a so called tracking suit. Stand-in David Anderson performed Slar's close-up shots that did not require movement.
