@zerosebaz:

Hehehe... One soul-two bodies VS. Two souls-one body!

Just a little bit about Kuwinda while your all waiting. The bio released about her will give the rest of it away ;)

First and foremost, she's from a whole new realm, a realm I called Jangwa (look it up in Swahili, her name too while your at it ). The Jangwan people are connected to the harsh terrain of the earth and desert, and are a minor realm within the nexus who's culture and values revolve around the thrill of hunting and combat. Kuwinda is one of the most legendary warriors within her time and is known throughout the small realm for her brutal and relentless passion for battle. Like a deadly predator, she stalks her opponents with an undetered commitment until the Huntress finally captures her "prey". That is, until Shao Khan takes the throne of Outworld from Onaga, and begins to merge the realms of the Nexus to Outworld, which in itself brings out Kuwinda's true motivations and desires.

Blunt, ruthless, savage and obsessive, she is the poacher and her enemies are her game. She does not kill out of rage, or vengeance, or sadism, rather she kills for her own accomplishment and gratification, for that is the way of the Jangwan people. On a personal level, she has no interest in the outcome of the latest tournament in Outworld: it matters not to her if either Raiden's or Shao Kahn's forces win the tournament. She merely see's this latest tournament as an opportunity to hunt fresher, more powerful prey. In a contest of good and evil, black and white, she is the mysterious shade of grey who's a wildcard amongst the other contestants in Shao Kahn's tournament. A wildcard which could go against either Emporer or Thunder God to suit her own needs.

The drums of battle have echoed. Her blades are sharpened. Her skills are honed. Her potential victims have been marked. The people of both Earthrealm and Outworld will soon witness the power of the Huntress.




(p.s, if it's at all allowed by Crow, images can be provided )

Sounds like an interesting fight, hahaha

:)

Bracket 2, Game 2....Nirvana all the way.

Good luck to Okorik, It's gonna be a heck of a fight!

Good luck to Shesgotclaws for Khaali...Looks like we are in the spotlight being first bracket and Round 1!

I am very much chomping at the bit with anticipation

I am a bit impatient aswell...also you saying chomping is irionic because I am hungry lol.

Fun fact:

My character, Kruor, seems to have entered with a bit of an automatic disadvantage. His body is made from the blood of fallen warriors -- and I sent him in to Crow just a couple days before they announced who Skarlet really was. If I'd known they were already using my idea, I'd have developed a different character. But alas....

So here's to hoping that you guys don't assume I was ripping off Skarlet. Hopefully you'll think that Kruor is cooler anyway, heheh.

Wow that kinda sucks but good luck with Kruor.

Thank you, Crow....for busting your balls like you are over this. Having helped with the last tourney, I know EXACTLY how much work that is to squeeze into a small amount of time.

I have a similar problem with Lorsid's round entrance...

Erzhära survived death traps and powerful warriors, you're far to be the biggest stone in her path.

Yeah, good luck to Kombaterator and Fu Lei.

All I want to reveal about Shingai is that he has been in my avatar the whole time. :)

Erzhära and some characters a like, are created too powerful beyond what is needed, which makes them unbelievable.

If my character had a power which called on the power of the Elder Gods to vaporize my opponents body to nothing, that is unbelievable. But a move like that would kill everyone.

The character has to be believable to the MK universe.

Interesting to see how "overpowering" some characters are made out to be.

Interesting indeed. I think I remember you saying your character has no "magical" abilities in battle?

Neither does mine, all of her moves are purely physical or involve personal gadgets, though she does have magic in her blood. That being said, she could very well be overpowered, just from a design perspective.... I don't think anyone's character will have a "YOU DIE NOW BECAUSE I SAY YOU DIE NOW!" theme going though... It'd be kind of silly....... Come to think of it, there's probably at least one. Or five.

Question: Just how in depth did everyone go with their fighting styles? Also, just for fun, if your character was implemented into the game, how would they rank tier wise?

I actually had to edit mine heavily, I went much too far into it, planning out combos, damage percentages, all totally unnecessary. I've let the moves themselves imply most of their significance at this point, but I was having a big ol' tub o' fun planning my Annette. I specifically designed her to play like a top tier character who suffers from and is balanced by two major flaws: Learning curve and low damage output. All things considered, I think that makes her rather flexible as far as ranking goes, because there would be a 50/50 chance of victory and flailing around the arena like a floppy fish.

As far as fighting style depth goes, I used three paragraphs.

Paragraph 1: Stance and movements.

Paragraph 2: Types of hits and balance (kind of damage he puts out, damage scaling, etc)

Paragraph 3: How his abilities function.

I did not go too into details on account of people asking questions anyway. Either way I am sure I may be asked about things so I tried to be simple but to the point. My bio I am fearing is lacking because I cut it short and removed the story mode type thing I had wrote. It is very short and does not reflect much...only the path she is taking.

I almost removed half of my story as well, and that is one thing that really pissed me off about this competition early on. There were so many people prepared to give anyone whose description was too long a hard time for no reason whatsoever. I wasted so much time re-editing my story to something shorter until I gave up and said "eh, if they don't want to read it, they don't have to.... Not my problem." ... I mean seriously, how can you possibly let the length of their bio determine how good a character is? ... It's a shame you took part of it out, but from what we've seen so far the shorter ones have held their own.

Well,I really took more than part of it out. That is why I am a bit worried that it will effect the votes. Either way win or lose it was just all in fun and if Crow allows me to post the story & alternate canon story ending (the way it would play out in story mode) I will. I still have not made up the 3rd Alt image but I will work on it when i get a chance. I can not enter it but other than that people might enjoy my vision

NoobSaibot5. Nobody has said anything but I think your character is pretty damn awesome. The only negatives I really get out of it are the new realm and the image I get when thinking of your character. I hate that they added chaos and order realms because they did nothing to really help the story of MK but add some piss poor characters so I'm not really taking a shot at your created realm. I just think you could have made her a hunter in Outworld because there is plenty of creatures to kill without adding another plane of existence. But before I say more I'll learn more bout you warrior girl and her race.

And when I think warrior huntress Jade just pops into my mind. I guess it's because she looks Amazonian. But I'm sure your character has some great African characteristics.

Other than that I really liked what I heard.

Anyone can see my character on my Mortal Kombat: Next Generation facebook page!

Please leave your (harsh) thoughts!

You can also add your created characters to the page if you wish! It is towards new characters anyway! So hope you all like it and post up your characters for all to see.

Thanks!

That Skarlet girl has caused me some grief too. Without giving away too much about Casilde, she also utilises blood in some of her moves.

Basically NRS should give Skarlet and overhaul so as not to clash with our characters :D

Find your faith and prepare to be judged.

Fight!!!

We need some people to come together and make a picture combining all three brackets with some Outworld portals in the background or some towers. Some of the kompetitors are standing in the background and some in the foreground, interacting with each other maybe based on the first rounds of the brackets.

Responding to the fighting style question, i made a shor paragraph describing how they should play, after it you have a complete description of each move, and then (after the specials and Xray descriptions) you have a general gameplay comentary. I know i was kind of exagerated, but i really really didn't wanted them to be overpowered. I think that on a high level gameplay they would be a mid high tier.


I guess each time we find more similarities in our entries :P

Edit: Now that i read again, i see that you edited and removed those things. Well, i guess i was exagerrated :P
