Owens, Pandora, Cybernetik, Human Sektor, Human Cyrax, Genesis and William Cunningham

These are fully defined characters with an array of specialty moves and techniques we think fans of the Mortal Kombat games will enjoy.

Tanaka as in Star Control 2? I love the game, but how would that work?

Don't actually call him Hornbuckle, come up with a real name for him. I think it would ba cool if his name was something like Yoshitsune-Minomoto, the name they originally gave to Liu Kang. Since Hornbuckle is a pallete swap of Liu Kang (Although they should make sure their costumes are different enough if he ever appears) , maybe they should give him Kang's original name, but they should make it simpler because none of the names in Mortal Kombat are that complex.

They could also create new characters out of other names they scrapped. Michael Grimm, the name they planned to give to Johnny Cage has a lot of potential. I think they could make him into another sort of normal character because they're getting kind of rare in the MK universe, as most of the new characters they make aren't from Earthrealm.

Come to think of it, I think there should be a few new fighters from Earthrealm. I think the only female characters we have are Sonya, Frost, and Kira. And really, who cares about Kira (Well I think she has potential, but most people really don't care). We have enough room for more than just a Special Forces agent, a wannabe thug, and a mystical freezing chick. I'd say they should give us three good female characters from Earth.


I agree! However, if they create another new character and give a Japanese name, then please let it match his or her gender! For example Hotaru and Reiko should've been given male and not female names!tongueA little somthing that always bugged me!

@zephyrwestwind

Tanaka would be a character with a long line of military & samurai generals in his family background & genology which handed down traditional styles of samurai swordmanships such as Kendo, Jigen & Niten Ichi just for example and for hand to hand combat he could apply style of Aikido for an example.

So he would have various sword styles characterized by swift, deliberate and precise strokes with a pair of katana blades. Tanaka can wear a hakama with black trim and also an overlapping robe tucked into his hakama with the adjustable sleeves. He would also have wrists guards over his forearms and a ponytail pulled back with a red ribbon to match the traditional style of fighting that would characterize his character. So he would have a traditional look to himself.

Also he would be an Earthrealm warrior who take a honorable or moral ethical stance and fight against injustice and people unable to defend themselves from bad or oppressive circumstances.

Possible intro for him could be the following:
Camera cuts to Tanaka kneeling on both knees in a meditative posture, he then rises up slowly to unsheathe his katana sword from its holster on his hip and utters the phrase, “The sword is my life, touch it and you die!” He then transitions into his fighting stance.

He'd also have 13 new and unique specialty moves. He'd also have a practical yet realistic fatality maybe with the accents of cherry blosoms pedals falling from the sky when he administers a final death blow with a single stroke of his katana blade with a samurai themed music snippet to sound for his fatality.

I could post the fully defined character if you want. But that's just a summary.
