“IT IS DA SPOOKY MONTH!”
― Skid, It's spooky month.
Skid is the main protagonist of the Spooky Month series and a character both created and voiced by Sr Pelo following the Halloween thematic.
He always wears his Halloween outfit in every episode, but ever since the first episode, there have been various photos of him without his costume.
Some of the people close to Skid so far are his mother and Pump, but throughout the series he has made more "friends" such as Frank, Kevin, and The Eyes.
Although it has not been specified how long Skid and Pump have known each other, it can be inferred that they have been very close friends for a long time, as they are always together causing mischief.
Appearance
Skid wears a white full head-covering mask that resembles a skull, with 4 black lines on the mouth area resembling teeth.
He wears a black skeleton costume with white lines on it respectively resembling a skeletal system. It is unknown if the costume is a onesie, or if it is put on in the same manner as a shirt, pants and shoes. But in "Hollow Sorrows", Skid and Pump's masks were swapped when they got bullied by Roy, which presumably means that the costumes aren't onesies.
Skid also wears gloves, which are usually seen as either white circles or black mittens with the same white skeleton-like lines on them. He is sometimes shown with an index finger, however.
Under his mask, Skid has a short black or dark purple bob cut hair and buck teeth, as you can see in the pictures that are in his mother's home.
His Winter outfit in Spooky Month 4 - Deadly Smiles consists of a black jacket with what it appears to be some shine on it. He also wears black earmuffs as well as a purple scarf around his neck.
He is slightly taller and skinnier than Pump, and his head appears to be a perfect circle shape. His eyes are tall and thin ovals with white pupils and black sclera when his mask is on.
He presumably keeps this eye shape when his mask is off, because in the background pictures, Skid's eyes are simply vertical lines.
Personality
Like a stereotypical child, Skid is cheerful, naïve, and very optimistic. He loves Spooky Month to the point where he insists it lasts year-round instead of limiting it to just October.
However, despite his immense gullibility and inability to tell right from wrong, Skid can be a bit skeptical about certain people if he notices something odd about them, motivation-wise, this being shown in The Stars, where he caught two thieves robbing his house and skeptically asked what their intentions were.
Skid is also shown to not be entirely brave, seen when he backs away from The Stranger showing genuine fear, calling the situation "scary" instead of "spooky".
But Skid has also been obliviously seen putting his closest ones in danger, specifically Pump twice, and Lila, his mom, once.
The first time in The Stars, Skid was able to see Pump clearly in Eyes of the Universe's eyes, yet he did nothing about Pump's hypnosis.
The second time in Unwanted Guest, he visibly and audibly argued with Pump, who claimed Lila was about to get murdered by a demon, who Skid did not recognize due to said demon being in the body of an exterminator.
Relationships
Lila
Skid and Lila love each other unconditionally. Lila supports her son to the point where she cut her own hair to look like Skid's, just to make him happy. She loves Pump just as much.
Pump
Skid and Pump are the best of friends, and no matter how bad the situation gets, they still remain very close to one another. They are rarely seen apart from one another. When they are, however, they always anticipate meeting each other again. They always get up to mischief together and enjoy each other's company more than anyone else.
The Hatzgang
Roy
Skid might possibly dislike Roy, due to him beating Skid up and tricking him and Pump into nearly becoming victims of sexual assault.
Ross and Robert
Skid has not interacted much with Ross and Robert, but it could possibly be that Skid also dislikes them, due to them spitting in his and Pump's eyes and stomping on their feet. However, overtime they do get along and now are presumably friends.
Moloch
Skid at first liked Moloch, but he went on to not recognize him when he was inside of Dexter's body. Later, it is shown that Skid misses Moloch.
The Uncle
Skid clearly hates and is scared of the Uncle, because he nearly sexually assaulted him and Pump.
Kevin
Skid likes and trusts Kevin, but not the other way around, however, Kevin does seem to care and worry about the kids, as shown from him trying to protect them in Tender Treats from Bob.
Candy Dealer
Skid likes and trusts the Candy Dealer.
Frank
Skid and Frank like each other, to the point where Frank made special ice creams shaped like Skid and Pump's masked heads, just for them.
Strengths
Spreading Spooky Month cheer
Skid's cheerfulness and love for Spooky Month spreads to almost everyone he meets.
Dancing
Skid can do the Spooky Dance.
Possession Immunity
Despite looking directly into The Eyes of the Universe, Skid is not affected whatsoever. This could potentially be due to Skiddad having some sort of relation to The Cult, making Skid impervious to its effects.
Weaknesses
Gullibility
Skid is very gullible, and falls for every trick that he's confronted with.
Unawareness
Skid appears to be unaware of situations where his family and closest friends are in danger. He did not recognize Moloch in Dexter's body despite Pump being correct about it.
Low durability
Skid was heard whimpering in pain when the Hatzgang beat him up.
Lack of defensive abilities
Skid was unable to protect himself and Pump from the Hatzgang when they physically abused them.
Trivia
- As seen in the description of the first Spooky Month episode, Skid's name was originally spelled "Skidd." Sr Pelo later simplified it to "Skid."
- Skid was the first character to appear in the webseries.
- Along with Pump, Skid appears in Friday Night Funkin' as guest singers and antagonists in week 2.
- Just like his best friend, it's possible that "Skid" is not his real first name.
- Skid's name may come from a portmanteau of "Skeleton" and "Kid".
- Skid appears in many photos on his house without his costume as well. Sometimes he is all by himself or with his mother Lila and his best friend Pump, and grandma.
- In ''Unwanted Guest'' there is a picture of him, Lila, his grandma and his father that says "You are everything" at the attic. Next to it, there's also another photo of this Skid's dad putting their hand on Skid's head, probably patting him, but his face is ripped off the picture.
- When shrouded in darkness, he appears as to look like a real skeleton.
- Skid is ambidextrous.[2]
- His Father is implied to have been a member/leader of the Cult.[3]
- Skid does not like cats. Lila points this out, saying that Skid's been different than usual, while on the phone with Jaune. [4]
- Skid doesn't like his haircut and so he feels better with it, Lila cut her hair the same way to match his.
