The Natives (also known as Islanders) are minor enemies in Metal Slug 5.
Information[]
These natives live in the Corridor of Fire protecting the secrets that lies within these caves. They will attack any intruders using spears, torches or axes. The stone masks they wear appear in the form of a face (or a bird in Metal Slug Advance). The masks act as a form of protection that enable them to take several bullets before going down.
At the end of the first mission of Metal Slug 5, a group of Natives find a white mask. One of them takes his own mask off and places the white one on his face — lightning then strikes him. This is probably the origin of the cult-looking members, and presumably, the leader of the Ptolemaic Army, Ptolemaios.

Trivia[]
- The design of the natives is based on the Incas, and the style of the temple is based on the Aztecs and Mayans.
- The native that got hit by the lightning at the end of Mission 1 is speculated to be Ptolemaios, or at least, a member of the cult.
