Bio:
Ever since he was just a little snake, young Ricky Coils had a dream to ride with the most feared biker gang in the world: the Wild Hogs. Throughout his life, he learned the ways of being a biker, and when he finished collage, his wish was granted. He approached the leader of the Wild Hogs, Porker McRinds, and asked him to join the gang. Porker agreed to let him join, but on one condition: if he could rob the First Petropolis Bank, he's in the gang. So, under the biker name Slither Jacket, because Ricky thought "slither" sounded like "leather," he journeyed with the Wild Hogs to Petropolis, California, and he successfully accomplished the deed he was given.
However, Porker and the rest of the Wild Hogs left Petropolis while he was robbing the bank, leaving Slither to get arrested by the authorities. This gave him the notion that they didn't want him to join at all, despite being so knowledgeable about biker culture. So, during his time in prison, Slither never forgave the Wild Hogs for ditching him when he wanted to join so badly.
But, while in prison, Slither met Jack Rabbit. Jack was impressed by his biker enthusiasm, and decided to recruit him as a member of his criminal gang. His slippery snake body was very effective in helping Jack escape from prison, and after joining the gang, he was outfitted by Jack himself with a switchblade in place of his rattle, which was missing during his time in prison, and was by Jack's side throughout his criminal career. He even assisted Jack when he was posing as a TUFF agent, and was even there when Jack backstabbed Kitty Katswell, only to be defeated and taken back to prison by Jake Wolfsbane.
A few years later, he was busted out again when Lady Malmsteen formed an alliance with Jack, and was one of the henchmen to join her in HER criminal pursuits. Slither even assisted Lady Malmsteen when she planned to kidnap the contestants of the Miss Petropolis pageant, and drained them of their essence. When Team Katswell intervened to rescue the hostages, Slither crossed paths with John Shepherd, and used his slippery body to get by his sword strikes with ease. John thought that Slither had the better of him, but thinking quickly, decided to halt his maneuvers by simply stepping on his tail. He then used his "Pseudo-Force" to tie Slither up into various funny shapes, until he eventually admitted defeat. After Malmsteen pinned the blame on the team's butler, Rocky, and fled the crime scene, Slither and the others were taken back to prison, but he would return again to confront John and Team Katswell time and time again.

Personality & Traits:
Slither Jacket is very cold-hearted and brash, given his biker nature, and doesn't hesitate to use brutal matters on his victims when need be. But, he's also very knowledgeable when it comes to motorcycles, making him a good choice for crime bosses to hire as a mechanic/driver for their crimes. Yet despite having no legs, he can actually ride a motorcycle rather well. Slither may be very smart when it comes to mechanics, but he's still a cold and menacing brute who will do anything for a quick buck.
He also has a mischievous side to him, as well. This was evident when he's around his fellow crooks on Jack's gang, when he pulls pranks on them using his slippery body. In fact, his favorite prank is to tie himself around his victim's wrist, and use his tail to hit him/her with his/her fist (in other words "stop hitting yourself"). But, when he's around Jack or Lady Malmsteen, he maintains a professional demeanor, and is proud to work alongside them in their criminal pursuits.
As for the Wild Hogs, he originally had revenge thoughts after they drove off from the Petropolis, but after his time in prison, he quickly forgot all about them. However, Slither hates getting himself caught in tight spaces due to his slender snake body, leaving him open to enemy attacks at times. He also doesn't like getting his snake body tied up in knots. But, he still tries to stay ahead of the crime game, and be a threat to TUFF agents anyway he can.

Well, that's Slither Jacket for "TUFF: Team Katswell."
