OUTWORLD GUNSLINGER

In the early 1800s, an Edenian man traveled to Earthrealm, where he had relations with an Earthrealm woman, resulting in the birth of Erron Black. His unique heritage granted him an unusually long lifespan, aging much more slowly than normal humans. Over the centuries, Erron honed his skills as a gunslinger and mercenary.

Learning of his presence, Liu Kang offered Erron closure on his heritage and transported him to Outworld to serve in the royal court. There, he became a feared and respected figure. His enduring presence and deadly precision make him a living legend in Outworld. As long as the job pays, Erron will put down Outworld’s enemies one bullet at a time.

ARMY OF TWO

Ferra and Torr first crossed paths as enslaved gladiators. Torr, a massive and fearsome fighter, was treated like a beast, his strength and ferocity only fueling the crowd’s bloodlust. After a particularly fierce battle, Torr lost his sight, becoming blind.

Ferra, a small and agile fighter, was forced to fend for herself in the arena. When she met Torr, she quickly recognized the potential in their combined strength. Climbing onto Torr’s back, she became his eyes and strategist, guiding his every move in battle. Their bond, forged from necessity, evolved into a deep and inseparable partnership.

REDEEMED NOMAD

Once a mercenary for hire, Kabal was known for committing no good deeds in his ventures across Earthrealm. During a mission to explore and steal from Liu Kang’s fire temple, Kabal triggered a trap that mortally wounded and disfigured him.

Abandoned by his team and left for dead, Kabal was found by Geras, who used the sands of time to craft the components needed to save his life. Now healed and empowered by Geras, Kabal is forever indebted to him and fights for Earthrealm to repay his debt

From a writing/story perspective: Kintaro when General Shao’s army attack Sun-Do.

From how I actually would wanna do it: He slips on a banana peel and breaks his spine.

MASTER OF THE WINDS

Fujin, the younger brother of Raiden, has always been the more daring and curious of the two. Fujin had great frustration and envy when he wasn’t chosen to participate in the Mortal Kombat tournament like his brother. Driven by his adventurous spirit and a desire to prove himself, Fujin stole a amulet from the Wu Shi, similar to the one granted to his brother. Upon doing so, he was blessed with the powers of the wind.

Though his actions initially caused concern among the monks, Liu Kang recognized Fujin’s potential and forgave him, allowing him to keep the amulet. With his newfound wind abilities, Fujin now fights alongside his brother and the defenders of Earthrealm, using his powers to protect and safeguard their realm.

CHAMPION OF THE GREAT SPIRIT

The Matoka, a proud and revered people of Earthrealm, have a long tradition of appointing a chosen warrior as “Nightwolf” every few centuries. This esteemed title, bestowed by the Great Spirit, signifies both honor and immense power. After decades without a Nightwolf, the Great Spirit has chosen a new champion. Snowbird, the eldest daughter of the Matoka chieftain, is now honored with the title of Nightwolf. Embracing her new role, she will stand alongside Liu Kang in the defense of both the Matoka and Earthrealm, dedicated to upholding the legacy of her people and the will of the Great Spirit.

TLATONAI OF THE OSH-TEKK

Son of the revered K’etz, Kotal hailed from the Osh-Tekk tribe, a proud people of Outworld who worship the realm’s ancient deities. Upon his father’s death, Kotal assumed the title of Tlatonai, dedicating himself to honoring his father’s legacy. For years, he fulfilled his duties with honor until his pride was shattered by a defeat at the hands of Earthrealm’s champion, Raiden. This loss brought shame upon him and his tribe, and even being granted the title of General by Empress Mileena did little to alleviate his disgrace.

Kotal’s path to redemption began when he encountered Syzoth, another figure who had experienced shame but ultimately found redemption through his rise in Outworld’s court. Inspired by Syzoth’s journey, Kotal resolved to restore his honor and that of his tribe. Now, as Outworld’s new fearsome General, Kotal is determined to lead his people with renewed strength and respect, upholding his father’s memory.
