Anyway I checked Ire and I gotta say that he is one well tought out character the ONLY thing missing for me is pictures I would love to see his awesomeness , but that doesn't put him in a disadvantage because he is so well described!

The MK team has looked at MKO in the past, so who knows?
There might be a chance they'll see this.
Not likely, but still possible.

So much reading to do, I'm ecstatic.

So far I've read a couple that I didn't like, won't say who (No one here though, so that's good news)

Would love to get some more feedback on Merrick.

Deon has a solidly non-intrusive story. Connects to a character in a way that is relevant to the kreated kharacter, but not some HUGE MAJOR thing to the canon one. Good. Same goes for Ekimaru too. I consider it pretty important that if you mention a canon kharacter they should be relevant to your kharacter's plot.


Much appreciated,smile

My thoughts on Merrick

His costumes are nice because they blend his two story relevant, we get a nice modernized look and a more mystic look and the green and blue color scheme looks great.

I like the pacificism angle you went with, there's very few character with anything close to that, really is a huge plus and very original.

Characters that use staff work are always welcome, it's nice to see a character that has a huge defensive game, I always call characters like that Defensive Specialists( like the Volleyball position);

I liked that you used scientific names like apoptosis for your fatalities, pretty knarly stuff.


The intro taunt is funny and creative


The ending is nice, he's kind of like the benevolent dictator, intriguing turn for the character, I like him.

I have read through Krimson's information.

She appears to be a cross between Sonya and Kira with darkened hair. Gameplay is well thought out and pretty unique. I see a few downsides to her special moves, namely the enhanced version of the free hit bombs would probably only be useful in far screen opportunities. The xray description took a bit of thinking and modification on my part to make it work in my head.

Over all however I'd say this would be a very balanced character in the game, I'd love to see her fight my entry.

I look forward to her first match so I can throw a much more detailed description of my thoughts into the mix.


Thank you! I await your full analysis, and it would a pleasure to face off against Ire.

I just pray Marek doesn't develop a habit of breaking kneecaps, otherwise there could be a lot of hospitalized Kombatants by the end of the tourney. tongue
Hold on, what am I saying, this is Mortal Kombat. They'll be back up and at'em in 5 minutes. wink

Crow, I have like 2 more sentences for my character ending that reveals a little more, like allies and enemies and clears up who Im talking about earlier in Shiku's ending. I get it if its too late, but since voting hasnt started, could I send it to you?

If it is too late I can just drop it in this thread I guess.

well I can try to help here a bit I suppose:

A great helm looks like this.

A barbute looks like this.

Morning Stars look like this.

Combine the helmets and think similar to Dr DOOM for the skull like face.

The character Ire most closely resembles visually is Gore from Quake 3, whom looks like this.

Holy.. Ire is badass.

Everything about him is well described, and it's very easy to imagine.

His bio and ending flows so well together.

A well thought-out character.

No, but it helps ease the conscience considering how many people he himself will also be hospitalizing.

Thanks Flaming TP for clearing that out :D

I would love to hear some more reviews on Ekimaru it really makes my day hearing what other people think of my creation.

On the side note I just finished reading Merick's "vignette" and I loved it I think it was about time Mortal Kombat got atleast one pacifist ,right grin

Thanks, for the feedback!

That's what I was shooting for. Was debating the business-wear alt but decided if Johnny can wear a tux than a shirt and slacks should be acceptable too.

It was a good way to make him stand out as his own character while also showing his moral fall.

Were he in the game, I'd like to think you'd have to play him differently than most, and you'd certainly have to be smart about it. Personal I think using Heal Thyself 3 times is a far more valuable use of 3 meter than an X-Ray.

Glad you enjoyed

Was debating between that or "First? Do some harm."

And again, glad to have the approval.

The first thing I noticed about Deon Bordeaux is his unique name which is awesome grin The thing that gets me the most excited is his ending .His fatality is quite brutal too I am loving this tournament already grin

By the way the name of my character has a meaning , Eki in japanese means lyzard and Hitokaze means salamander and of course I think the nickname Matchstick is understandable grin


Thanks, I went through a couple name variants for Deon, some were too bland, it was originally Baker, but I didn't think it would stand out enough, I'm pleased that the ending seems to have gotten a rather warm reception so far, very surprised by that. . I wanted to make something for his fatality that really spoke to his ability to manipulate neurons and I thought using a latin phrase like corpus delecti( body of the crime) as the incantation would be very creepy and fitting, so pleased to hear you liked my work.

I think after reading some of these...NRS or WB should friggin buy some of these ideas off of us. Hell I would even sell cheap...I would take the first offer!

Khaali and Terra are looking awesome. Terra resembles a good aligned female version of Shao Kahn. Very awesome costume. I really do not expect making the first round due to all the great characters.

Round one Prediction for bracket one. (in depth vote to come after I get up in the morning in that new thread.)

Bracket one Luna vs Khaali.
Winner: Luna
Reason: Special moves are easier to comprehend. Character design is a bit more complex. Khaali's X-Ray seems like it would be very difficult to use properly against a non jump happy player.

This is a big tidbit of a canon type info for what would be for in game story mode. I know I promised this for after the whole event but I figured it might inspire people to get a better understanding of Luna. I hope everyone enjoys.

@Crow...I know you are still allowing revisions at this time but this stuff was not requested from the worksheet you gave so this I ask to not be entered with my entry. This is for anyone who likes fan fiction & for anyone who has taken a liking to Luna. grin

Story/cinematic/gameplay ending (as if it were played out in a games canon story mode): Luna walks into the fallen emporers arena where Quan Chi awaits her sitting in the throne. She had just beaten all of Quan Chi's Earthrealm warrior souls that have perished not long ago...plus after that defeated Scorpion and forced him to teleport her to Quan Chi. One was missing out of the bunch she faught and it was Nightwolf. She looks on the side of the throne and sees her brother chained up. She hollars "let him go" and Quan Chi laughs. Quan Chi gets up out of the throne and says it is just a dead body. Quan was able to locate his body after finding that what Nightwolf did was use his acension as a dimentional portal to lock Sindel in an astral void...a realm that she could not escape without the right magic. Luna questions him and he tells her I don't decieve you as he laughs the sounds of heels walking and an evil female chuckle as the camera pans to reveal Sindel! She had survived the viod and escaped with the help of Quan Chi. As Raiden walks in Luna asks "but how?". Raiden gets a godly vision and it shows Nightwolf callapsing after appearing in the void with Sindel still standing and in the background a dark figure stands. Raiden than says he has just had a vision of what has happened. It seems Nightwolf died by his own power because it drained him of his life force. Raiden states that because his body is still intact and still fresh he may be able to bring her brother back if they had his soul. Luna asks hollaring out at everyone "what do I have to do to get my brother back!". Quan says "you must beat me in Mortal Kombat". Luna states that it will be easy because she has already faced his worsed minions. Quan Chi laughs as Noob Saibot rises from out of Sindel's shadow. Quan states "let it begin". Actual game play would be inserted here to fight a handicap against Sindel and Noob. After losing Noob vanishes into the shadows and Sindel gets killed and absorbed by Quan Chi. Quan than says you have one last task before you can face him in Mortal Kombat to free everyone or doom Earthrealm (because that is to be what he wagers,control of Earthrealm).Luna just nods and waits. Quan sits in the throne as the chains break from Nightwolf's body he looks up opening his eyes revealing nothing but blackness. Quan states in order to save Nightwolf's soul you will have to destroy his body before facing him. Luna falls to her knees and Raiden lowers his head and walks to her and puts his hand on her shoulder saying "we came to set Nightwolf free,this is the only way now. it is you that made the solid oath to carry on his destiny knowing he was already dead. You must honor his sacrifice and take his place to protect Earthrealm and to stand by us in Mortal Kombat." Luna places her hand on Raiden's and lets her tears fall as she stands. She says "Raiden,you are right. This is not my brother anymore...it is a shell of what he use to be and I am now to take his path and make it my own.Brother I shall set you free!" Luna charges in to fight the zombie Nightwolf (cue gameplay). She stands with her brother's blood on her hands growls like a savage,runs in and faces Quan Chi.(cue final fight gameplay) As promised through the wager in Mortal Kombat the Elder Gods granted the souls requested to be free after Quan's defeat and Nightwolf's spirit walks up to Luna...He thanks her and tells her to hold to her word to carry on his legacy and he will always be with her. He takes her hand and their Ancestor's Souls pull Nightwolf's into Luna's body merging him with her. She falls to her knees & looks down as the camera pans to Raiden as he asks "what has happened?". She states "I am now one with my destiny,a shadow of a wolf over the moon. I am no longer myself...refer to me now as Eclipse." The camera pans to her showing her stand up in an all black costume & her skin light grey.Close up shot of her winking with a thunder bang noise to suddenly cue a clip of Quan Chi escaping alive with Noob Saibot and than a image with Shinnok appears. Then roll the credits.
Inspirational note: My characters name came from the past quote we all know of but it also has meaning. I used it as a tool to point out that "Look to La Luna" represents the meaning of not only looking to the moon but the character Luna always looks for her past to be reborn with Nightwolf.

Some awesome characters, great fun reading through them. Will be totally embarrassed if I'm the first one eliminated in the first match though!

Only one mistake on Khaali's page, a strange sentence about powers being manipulation of light and teleportation, of which she does neither, so don't know who is missing that line from their Bio.
Khaali's original Bio was a little more in depth, but I thought it was way to....adult in the end, so made it a little simpler and more like those already in game. Ill just say she's as passionate about sex just as much as she is battle. Like a wild she- beast. One of her original fatalities was called 'Black Widow', she'd throw them down, climb atop them.... and ill leave the rest to your imagination.

I noticed that out of place line aswell and was thinking that it may be a mix up. Also,do not be embarrassed if you don't make it. I think you did a great job regardless of the outcome. I am a bit honorable so I will not be voting on our match. I wish ya the best of luck.

A bit of insight from what I think of Khaali...The way her story is plus her being extremely unique,exotic and rather large would make her a great ideal sub boss/boss type character. If I were to put her in a game she would probably not be playable due to complexities and what I previously stated. Otherwise she is pretty awesome. I have a love for spiders so naturally I would think that lol.

Okay, Erzhära (me) vs Shoulen. One magical sand-arm against two natural shape moulding arms. Probably my worst rival possible, this will be tough.

Crow!! My character Terek has an image on his profile of a woman I don't know who she is =P

I sent you Terek's alternate separatedly, so this is probably the source of the problem. I can send you again if you want. Thanks

Anybody wanna comment, make a suggestion or criticize Tyron Magnum? I'd like to hear what people have to say. I'm up against X and he has a more traditional bio and ending but I think I can win.

There are some minor issues with spelling on the page. Undefeateated=undefeated, meet=meat, and on the moves list it says men but was suppose to be Omen.
