I think that's a good idea. I never really noticed there aren't any female bosses.

QUEVE!!! WHERE ARE YOU?!?!?!

first - i think this thread belongs to the General Forum.

Second - it would be great to have a female boss for once in MK. maybe Li Mei could be the next boss. The Dragon King can turn her into a dragon (since in her ending, he "transform" her into his queen) and she could be a boss or sub-boss, that would be awesome.

I'd love it if the female boss were Mileena. The next game could focus on Kitana rallying the other warriors reclaim the Edenian throne.

I totally agree!!!

I mention something like this here just after Deadly Alliance came out. Everyone seems to agree that it would be quite interesting.

It is possible that Li Mei could be the new 'boss', however, if you watch Tanya's ending...... she becomes overlord of the realms.

I was also thinking what if Mileena got hold of Quan Chi's amulet??

Whatever happens... this idea would rule!

i wud LOVE to see Mileena as a boss....li mei...um, no......but Mileena wud be awesome, however i think it'll be super cool if Shao Kahn came back and a Shadow Priest was the sub boss, but I WuD love to see Kitana trying to reclaim her throne, and mileena going against everyone with no allies....thats cool......good candidates for bosses and sub bosses i think are

Shao Kahn
Shadow Priest
Mileena

I want to see a shadow priest too.

A female sub boss would be pretty kool. I'd have a new fighter because I don't see Kitana or Mileena as being strong enough for the part.

She could look like a normal human, but have a lof of power, She might even glow.

Great idea! One word though...

Sheeva

The perfect female sub-boss, as is Tanya and Li mei.

If there ever is a female sub-boss, she should be an evil demon and should look "zombie-like", like Drahmin. She can be a tortured demon of the netherrealm or something like that...

A female demon would be good.

Maybe a female demon wizard.

So she's strong, fast and has magical powers.

she could have horns too.

she could be super muscular like a female body builder to emphasize her being much more powerful than a normal female fighter.

Make her look intimidating.

Yeh I think an Alma like character would be great (Ninja Gaiden). She just walks up to you all calm, in a really feminim form, while you do all your moves to get rid of her, just knocking her back (like the Intro to the Dragon King).

I do like the idea of introducing a Shadow Priest as a sub-boss, perhaps even more than my idea for a female sub boss.

But since this is a female sub-boss thread, I have thought for a long while that a cool idea would be a female cybernetic ninja...

We have never seen one, and I think she could be REALLY fast, powerfull and has the opportuntity to have sick set of moves. I just see her with a flamethower move (like Sektor's old fatality) and maybe some other fire-related specials...

I was gonna make a female cyber ninja for the next create a character, but went with my other concept instead. However I may choose to create her once again, in a future create a character tourney.

I had thought she'd be predominantely black, with red as a secondary colour, and be named 'Black Widow'.

There are good storyline possibilities with both the Lin Kuei and Tekunin, one day perhaps...

-But anyways, yeah, my suggestion is a female cyber ninja!

I think Khamelion would be a great sub-boss.
She could have her own moves, or just morph into any of the other female ninjas, or maybe both.

There are a number of good choices for female bosses. Mileena-Queen of the Tarkatan Nitara-Vampire War Tanya-Maybe her MKD ending was true Khameleon-Reptile War Sonya-Maybe you could fight on the side of evil, fighitng against the forces of Earthrealm, or maybe Sonya becomes controlled by somthing or other. Maybe she does become Kahns bride. Li Mei-Dragon Kings Bride

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i think li mei would be like a sub boss, but i don't like her ending she turned bed!!!
i think she would then kill the dragon king and she will be the next gam star. tanya i think she is the next boss or sub boss.

I'd love a female sub boss in MK. Lots of people, including myself, have posted threads aout this before.

I dont see Tanya or Li Meis endings coming true.
I also dont see Mileena being a sub boss.

If Kitana dn Sonya havent been freed, then they could maybe be the next Sub boss as I doubt the Dragon King will be gone, so his bodyguards could be there.

Maybe Nitara or Khameloen. Now that would be kewl.

ive also like the Kreeyans from MKConquest TV show. They could maybe be brought in (or someone like them) and have Kreeya or Vorpax as the boss with a deadly sub boos female too.

Or, Kitana could realise that she cannot free her homeland after the Dragons Kings invasion. In order to restore her realm and fully detatch it from outworld, she must defeat the nearest realm within her grasp and power......Earthrealm!!!!

I was thinking Tanya, that would be cool. Some guy posted a female octopus-like boss which i thought was badass

Awesome sig, man!

And that was Queves idea! that octupus rocked!

I'd love to see a female boss too. Here's hoping Tanyas ending hapened! She'd make a killer boss!

I strongly agree...A Female Boss is needed (maybe a Sub-Boss, which is something I would like better).

Female sub-boss, yes. But I want Shao Kahn back for the last boss.

Sub-boss, yes.
Boss? Never.

....



Why not?

Alright, don't take it the wrong way (I had to go through this in Queve's old thread about mkd), and I guess is more of a general explaination than a direct answer to your question...

I want an intimidating boss. A boss that looks as if he could crush my skull with a single hand. Woman can be intimidating, yeah, but a man will always be slightly more intimidating because of the strength factor, and the build.

Males would most likely have met far more guys that they were scared to death of than chicks. Like, the kind of people who you think that if you breathe around them, they're going to crush your throat. Guys that give off the vibe of modern day warlords. I haven't met many woman like that. Maybe one or two, but i've met/seen a lot more nasty, intimidating men than I have woman.

You could argue that strength isn't the only factor, and that a female boss could rely more on scorcery and whatnot, which I guess is fesible, but woman are still smaller than men, and are still more susceptible to damage. Slug a toned woman in the chest, and see how much damage she takes. Do the same with a toned man, and he's less likely to be injured because of his natural body make up.

If people are going to take the monster route and say, "well she doesn't have to be human, other races could be genetically different", then that's fine, but if it's a monster, what's the point? A feminine monster? Why create a huge monstrosity of an evil being, and have it act feminine? Woman don't have to be feminine? That defeats the purpose of having a female boss, doesn't it? Why have a female boss if it doesn't act like a female at all? If you're going to have a really butch or manly female boss, it might as well just BE a male.

People say "Don't be sexist! We're equals, so it shouldn''t matter if it's a female or not!". Then why go through all the trouble trying to make a female boss work in a world which is pretty much dominated by men, if it doesn't even matter? Just to prove a point? There are plenty of other ways to prove this point, but leave the political correctness out of MK, thanks.

There doesn't NEED to be a female boss in Mortal Kombat, just for the hell of it - "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should".
Call it unfair, but that's the way things have always been. Blame God for making females the physically weaker sex, not me for making observations.

The only way I wouldn't mind seeing it happen, as if the female boss were given the ability to morph into other characters, because there would be nothing set in concrete about her body make up. Then again, if she were able to morph into Jax, that would kind of throw away the point of her being female.

I agree with everything you said. Things shouldn’t always have to be so politically correct or fair because at times, not only does it not make sense, but its not even necessary.

Sure there doesn't need to be a female boss. Doesn't mean one wouldn't work. I personally would love to see Vorpax from MKC revamped and made a queen of a boss. I think she would be more than a match for the current line of bosses if she were done right. I know there is low chance of it being done right, but it is still possible. He costume, story, and style being done right, she would be more than worthy of a position as a boss.
