I've always felt that Drahmin is severely overlooked and never credited for how good of a character he is. I love his story, his concept, his mask, his club, and his brutality. He is a true Mortal Kombat character.

I think the only flaw he has is in his costume. If he could have something like his alternate costume, just a tad bit more elaborated (more armor, etc), then he'll look nice. The mask, of course, can stay because it's too awesome.

I think it would be great if he could control his insects a little more. He could have them swarm the opponent, lift and slam the opponent, spin the opponent, etc. There's endless potential in that, and it's also very unique to his character. They could be used in fatalities too. Instead of the usual chop/slice fatality, he could use them to eat the opponent or rip them apart or something gruesome like that. And I like your ideas with Pestilence and Famine also, it would be interesting to see that used in gameplay.

Some people think he is King Jerrod, and his story should elaborate upon that, but I think he should be his own character. I feel that people would want him to be King Jerrod so he could have more character connections and be more prominent in the MK world. But to me, Drahmin is Drahmin, not King Jerrod. And if Ermac's MK9 ending is true, Jerrod can stay in Ermac.

It's just a shame to me to see him fall into the same category and Hsu Hao, having slim chances to return in another game. But he has all the potential in the world with his story and style. I guess he's just shunned because he isn't a colorful ninja with elemental powers. It's a great shame, indeed.
