** BattleCouple: Seems to be played up as the female half of one with the Sub-Zero bros. Not much happens with the elder one, as she only gets to deliver the finishing blow to Quan Chi before Shinnok "kills" her, but she comes to the younger Sub-Zero's defense to help him force Noob-Smoke to flee and [[spoiler:in her ''Armageddon'' ending, she and Sub-Zero imprison Quan Chi in the Lin Kuei temple. Take note of how Sub-Zero revives her and how she miraculously gains [[AnIcePerson freezing powers]] in this ending. [[ShipTease Coincidence, right?]]]]

->In ''Armageddon'', Shinnok tricked Taven into helping him, claiming that he was no longer an Elder God for getting involved with the affairs of mortals. He wished for him to defeat the demons that inhabit his throne and he would try to locate Daegon as a reward. He successfully does the task and Shinnok tells Taven that he is most likely in Earthrealm. As he leaves, it is revealed that Shinnok was helping Daegon who was hiding in Netherrealm. In addition, it was Shinnok who alerted the many combatants to the prize at the top of the Pyramid of Argus, telling them that whomever obtained this power would be granted godlike power. His ending reveals that Shinnok created a clone of his own self to assist Daegon in ''Armageddon''. His clone was killed off shortly after defeating Kung Lao, unable to complete his objective.

->He makes a brief cameo in ''MortalKombat9'' where [[spoiler:his plan to take over Outworld and Earthrealm are going as planned thanks to Quan Chi's assistance.]]

--> Sareena is one of [[EvilSorcerer Quan Chi]]'s personal assassins. She and her [[AmazonBrigade two partners]], Kia and Jataaka, were ordered to kill Sub-Zero before he reached Quan Chi. They were defeated, but Sub-Zero strangely spared Sareena's life. Later, as Sub-Zero battled Quan Chi, Sareena suddenly appeared and did a HeelFaceTurn by helping him in defeating the sorcerer. After expressing her desire to escape the Netherealm with him, she's shot in the back with a bolt of energy by Shinnok. She collapses into an enraged Sub-Zero's arms and seems to die...

--> ... OrIsIt? Turns out after the events of the game that the only thing Shinnok destroyed was [[TheHeartless her human form]]. In ''[[MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition]]'', it's discovered that her essence was banished as punishment for her betrayal, [[YankTheDogsChain where she would suffer for years]]. Some time later, Sareena discovered the portal Quan Chi and Scorpion used to escape the Netherealm.

--> Shortly after regaining her human form, Sareena encountered [[Characters/MortalKombat2 the younger brother of the Sub-Zero she met years before]]. Sub-Zero granted her sanctuary with the Lin Kuei back on Earthrealm. In gratitude, Sareena pledged her loyalty to the clan, swearing to help defend it from its enemies.

--> In ''Armageddon'', it is revealed that Sareena followed Sub-Zero into the Netherrealm, saving him from [[MortalKombatDeception being killed by Noob Saibot and Smoke]]. She and Sub-Zero were victorious, but after the battle, Sareena lost control of her human form and returned to her true demon self. Thinking her to be a threat, Sub-Zero attacked and she fled, not wanting to harm him. However, she was later attacked by Noob Saibot, Smoke, and her former master Quan Chi, who demanded she provide them information about the Lin Kuei. At first, Sareena refused, determined to remain loyal to Sub-Zero. But Quan Chi then cast his dark sorcery upon her, returning her to her human form and then convincing her that she can never be good and that she is simply a pure evil demon. Swayed by Quan Chi's corruption, [[FaceHeelTurn she agreed to serve him once again]].

--> Fujin is one of Raiden's god-guardians of Shinnok's amulet in ''Mythologies'', and the first of them which was challenged by Sub-Zero. He returned in ''4'' as one of the Earthrealm gods not being destroyed by Shinnok. He assists Raiden in his battle against Shinnok, and after his defeat, he was ascended to the Earthrealm protector status, while Raiden (who chose him as the replacement) was re-promoted to the Elder Gods pantheon.

--> In ''Armageddon'', he notices a behaviour change in his old friend. While Raiden was, technically, in the good guys' side, he also gained a ruthless side after realizing that HumansAreBastards and revived Liu Kang's corpse in order to send him to do a massive manslaughter. In spite of this, Fujin allied with Kung Lao in order to find a way to save both Raiden and Liu Kang. He learns that Johnny Cage is trying to gather the Forces of Light, and there's also a mention of the brothers Taven and Daegon, whose family has been friends with Fujin over the years. Argus (their father) sent them on a quest which was corrupted by evil. Fujin then goes to search for both brothers, hoping to prevent their progress and learn the true purpose of their quest.

->Shinnok is a former elder god and current ruler of the Netherrealm. Originally, he wanted to take Earthrealm for himself to gain immense power. To make sure he could freely enter Earthrealm without being detected, he created a special amulet which discreetly weakened the dimensional barriers. However, with the help of the other Elder Gods, Raiden discovers his plot and defeats him in battle, banishing him to the Netherrealm for good. There, he suffered constant torture until he met the sorcerer Quan Chi. With his help, Lucifer was dethroned and Shinnok became the new ruler with Quan Chi as his arch-sorcerer and right-hand man.

->During the events of both ''[[MortalKombatMythologiesSubZero Mythologies: Sub-Zero]]'' and ''MortalKombat4'', Quan Chi was working to release his master, the banished Elder God Shinnok, from his imprisonment in the Netherrealm. With the assistance of the original Sub Zero, Quan Chi managed to get the amulet and initiate Shinnok's invasion of the realms after Shao Kahn's failed attempt to conquer Earthrealm. He managed to invade Edenia and attack the heavens before Earthrealm's warriors managed to have him banished back to the Netherrealm once more by Raiden.

->In '''Armageddeon''', Shinnok tricked Taven into helping him, claiming that he was no longer an Elder God for getting involved with the affairs of mortals.

[[redirect:Characters/{{ptitle678nrkxz}}]]

to:

[[redirect:Characters/{{ptitle678nrkxz}}]]Here we're going to list the characters introduced in the Spinoff ''MortalKombatMythologiesSubZero''. While Quan Chi was originally introduced in ''MortalKombatDefendersOfTheRealm'', he's included here for the sake of narrative, as this is the game which introduced him to the series proper and explained his role in the main story of the games.

!!Quan Chi
[[quoteright:320:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/quan-chi_6867.png]]
[[caption-width-right:338:White powder must be cheap in the Netherrealm.]]
--> ''"You will serve me in the Netherrealm!"''
-->-- '''Fight intro'''

-->'''Other appearances:''' ''MortalKombat4'', ''MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance'', ''MortalKombatArmageddon'' and ''MortalKombat9''. Cameo in ''MortalKombatDeception'' and ''MortalKombatVsDCUniverse''.

-> A sorcerer from the Netherrealm, Quan Chi is quite easily the most [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder treacherous]] character in all the games. While originally supposed to serve the Elder God Shinnok, Quan Chi's true allegiance is only to himself, and he will make and break deals with anyone if it furthers his goals. Quan Chi, contrary to most characters in the series, does not actually belong to either a mortal race or the myriad gods: he used to be an oni, a demonic torturer from hell, who eventually took a humanoid form.

->Quan Chi has had a behind-the-scenes presence through a myriad of major events in the series' history. Serving Shinnok, he directly caused the deaths of both Scorpion (and his clan and family...) and the original Sub-Zero, was the one who revived Sindel in order to facilitate Shao Kahn's invasion of Earthrealm, released Shinnok from his imprisonment in the Netherrealm, and brought about Liu Kang's death during the events of ''[[MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance Deadly Alliance]]''. He has also betrayed every single ally he ever had at one point or another.

->During the events of both ''[[MortalKombatMythologiesSubZero Mythologies: Sub-Zero]]'' and ''MortalKombat4'', Quan Chi was working to release his master, the banished Elder God Shinnok, from his imprisonment in the Netherrealm. To this end, he also worked with Shao Kahn (bringing back Sindel for him, as previously mentioned). After Shinnok's defeat, however, Quan Chi eventually discovered the tomb of Onaga The Dragon King, which contained within his undead army, which slept in suspended animation. Wanting to control the army to conquer both Outworld and Earthrealm, Quan Chi allied himself with Shang Tsung, eventually bringing down Liu Kang together during the events of ''Deadly Alliance''. Of course, after being victorious over Earthrealm's warriors at the end of ''Deadly Alliance'', Quan Chi turns on Shang Tsung (with Shang Tsung doing the same, of course). They are both attacked by Onaga the Dragon King, however, and both Quan Chi and Raiden are supposedly destroyed during the events of ''[[MortalKombatDeception Deception]]''. Quan Chi did survive the events of ''Deception'', but eventually dies along with... well, everybody else, during the events of ''[[MortalKombatArmageddon Armageddon]]''.

->Quan Chi has an important role in the events of ''MortalKombat9'': all the aforementioned events which happen during the course of the first three games also happen during this one. It starts with the fact that he slaughters Scorpion's family to convince him to kill the ''original'' Sub-Zero, not the younger one, and it only goes downhill from there.

* BaldOfEvil
* BigNo: When Scorpion [[TakingYouWithMe drags him into the Netherrealm]] in ''4''.
* CanonImmigrant ''and'' AscendedExtra: He appeared first in the ''Defenders of the Realm'' cartoon, with a whole episode where he used a magic jewel to increase the evil emotions in everyone's hearts except Nightwolf. Game-wise, he was introduced in both ''Mythologies'' and ''4'' at the same time as a major character.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: There is not a single character he's allied or bargained with that he didn't later betray.
%% Don't add CompleteMonster here. It goes in the YMMV tab.
* EvilAlbino
* EvilOverlord
* EvilSorcerer
* EvilSoundsDeep
* GrievousHarmWithABody: [[WordOfGod Ed Boon]] went on record as claiming that Quan Chi had both the best AND worst fatalities in the series.
** His Leg Rip fatality in ''4'' and ''9'', where he tears your leg off and beats you to death with it.
** In ''Deadly Alliance'', he stretches your neck to cartoony proportions, and while he does it, it can be assumed that he's tearing your spinal kord from the rest of your nerves while keeping your head attached. It's basically Sub-Zero's head rip, but far less bloody.
* InsistentTerminology: Quan Chi's use of the word "ninja" to refer to Sub-Zero (who is a ''[[McNinja Lin Kuei]]''), specifically done as a form of mockery.
* ManipulativeBastard: Quan Chi is the one who killed Scorpion's family & clan, ''not'' Sub-Zero. He told Scorpion that it was the younger Sub-Zero, because he wanted Scorpion on his & Shinnok's side during the events of ''[=MK4=]''.
** He does it ''again'' with Scorpion and the elder Sub-Zero during ''[=MK9=]''. In the process, [[spoiler:Scorpion's now a MUCH more willing pawn for him]], and he has also secured [[spoiler:Noob Saibot]] as his servant. [[spoiler:He might also be manipulating ''Raiden himself'', if Raiden's visit to the Netherrealm and the Stinger at game's end are any indication]].
* {{Necromancer}}: As seen in [[CutscenePowerToTheMax the opening]] to ''Armageddon'' [[spoiler:as well as in the story mode of ''9'']], although [[GameplayAndStorySegregation he can't do this in the games proper]]. He CAN exert limited control over the living as well (see "PeoplePuppets" below).
* NoKillLikeOverkill: His above mentioned fatality where he beats the victim with their own leg. Even when the announcer deems the opponent dead, Quan Chi ignores it and keeps beating the corpse.
* OmnicidalManiac: In Baraka's ''Gold'' ending.
* PeoplePuppets: Some of his moves allow him to control his opponent's body for a short period of time. Prime example of this is his X-Ray move in ''9''.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* SecretCharacter: Beat the Story Mode in ''9'' to unlock him.
* SlouchOfVillainy: His win pose in ''9''.

* SpikesOfVillainy: Present on his original armor from ''Mythologies'' and ''4'', but also included to a degree in his current attire.
* TheStarscream: To Shinnok.
* ThisCannotBe: Has an OhCrap moment upon the return of Onaga. If you listen closely, he actually says this too.

!!Sareena
[[quoteright:315:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sareena_889.png]]
[[caption-width-right:315:She's supposed to be an ugly demon... [[ButYourWingsAreBeautiful Don't worry, even Sub-Zero doesn't agree.]]]]

-->"I am not a being of Light. I am a demon of the Netherrealm, a servant of Quan Chi."
-->--'''Her Bio'''

-->'''Other appearances:''' ''[[MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition]]'' and ''MortalKombatArmageddon''. Cameo in ''MortalKombatDeception'' and ''MortalKombat9''.

--> Sareena is one of [[EvilSorcerer Quan Chi]]'s personal assassins. She and her [[AmazonBrigade two partners]], Kia and Jataaka, were ordered to kill Sub-Zero before he reached Quan Chi. They were defeated, but Sub-Zero strangely spared Sareena's life. Later, as Sub-Zero battled Quan Chi, Sareena suddenly appeared and did a HeelFaceTurn by helping him in defeating the sorcerer. After expressing her desire to escape the Netherealm with him, she's shot in the back with a bolt of energy by Shinnok. She collapses into an enraged Sub-Zero's arms and seems to die...

--> ... OrIsIt? Turns out after the events of the game that the only thing Shinnok destroyed was [[TheHeartless her human form]]. In ''[[MortalKombatDeadlyAlliance Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition]]'', it's discovered that her essence was banished as punishment for her betrayal, [[YankTheDogsChain where she would suffer for years]]. Some time later, Sareena discovered the portal Quan Chi and Scorpion used to escape the Netherealm.

--> Shortly after regaining her human form, Sareena encountered [[Characters/MortalKombat2 the younger brother of the Sub-Zero she met years before]]. Sub-Zero granted her sanctuary with the Lin Kuei back on Earthrealm. In gratitude, Sareena pledged her loyalty to the clan, swearing to help defend it from its enemies.

--> In ''Armageddon'', it is revealed that Sareena followed Sub-Zero into the Netherrealm, saving him from [[MortalKombatDeception being killed by Noob Saibot and Smoke]]. She and Sub-Zero were victorious, but after the battle, Sareena lost control of her human form and returned to her true demon self. Thinking her to be a threat, Sub-Zero attacked and she fled, not wanting to harm him. However, she was later attacked by Noob Saibot, Smoke, and her former master Quan Chi, who demanded she provide them information about the Lin Kuei. At first, Sareena refused, determined to remain loyal to Sub-Zero. But Quan Chi then cast his dark sorcery upon her, returning her to her human form and then convincing her that she can never be good and that she is simply a pure evil demon. Swayed by Quan Chi's corruption, [[FaceHeelTurn she agreed to serve him once again]].

-----

* AbortedArc: WordOfGod dropped a few hints that she had a connection to Reiko, but nothing came of it.
* AmazonBrigade: Was once part of one along with Kia and Jataaka.
* AscendedExtra
* TheAtoner
* BareYourMidriff
* BigDamnHeroes: If you [[MercyRewarded let her live]], [[DynamicEntry she pops out]] during the battle with Quan Chi in ''Mythologies'' to deliver the coup de grace. After ''Deception'', she also prevents Noob and Smoke from getting the jump on Sub-Zero.
* [[BishonenLine Bishoujo Line]]: Averted, as it's implied that her true demon form is vastly stronger, but Sareena hates her demonic lineage and [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity will lose control of her actions]] if she stays in the form for an extended period of time. Sareena assumes human guise out of preference, making this something of an {{invoked|Trope}} PowerLimiter.
** InformedAbility: That being said, besides the mention of her demon form in her ''Armageddon'' bio, it's never been seen in action (possibly {{justified|Trope}} due to the above), and from what's been discerned, her true form is most likely ''not'' a CuteMonsterGirl or even an attractive {{Beastess}}. Also, while likely, it's unknown if Jataaka and Kia have similar demon forms.
* DarkActionGirl --> ActionGirl
* EarlyBirdCameo: Before appearing in ''Tournament Edition'' and ''Armageddon''.
* FacialMarkings
* FemmeFatale: Subverted. She looks like one but never ''acts'' as one.
* GorgeousGorgon: At least her human form is. We've yet to see her true appearance as a demon.
* HellBentForLeather
* HighHeelFaceTurn
* HooksAndCrooks: During her time with the Brotherhood of Shadow, Sareena brandished [[DualWielding twin]] hookswords.
* IAmAMonster: Loathes her demon form and is briefly manipulated into believing that she can't be good because of her status as such.
* KnifeNut: Her main projectile in ''Armageddon''.
* MercyRewarded: See "BigDamnHeroes" above.
* NobleDemon: Though she really isn't very demonic.
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Or so it seems. It is later revealed that Shinnok merely destroyed her human form.]]
* ShinyMidnightBlack
* ShipTease: With the Elder Sub-Zero in ''Mythologies''. With the Younger in ''Armageddon''.
** BattleCouple: Seems to be played up as the female half of one with the Sub-Zero bros. Not much happens with the elder one, as she only gets to deliver the finishing blow to Quan Chi before Shinnok "kills" her, but she comes to the younger Sub-Zero's defense to help him force Noob-Smoke to flee and [[spoiler:in her ''Armageddon'' ending, she and Sub-Zero imprison Quan Chi in the Lin Kuei temple. Take note of how Sub-Zero revives her and how she miraculously gains [[AnIcePerson freezing powers]] in this ending. [[ShipTease Coincidence, right?]]]]
** InterspeciesRomance: She's a demoness, and the Sub-Zero brothers are mostly human, partially Cyromancer.
** LovingAShadow: Her semi-sorta there relationship with Sub-Zero the Younger could possibly be seen in this light.
** RescueRomance: A variation. Part of the reason for her HighHeelFaceTurn was Sub-Zero sparing her life. She tend [[BigDamnHeroes comes to his aid against Quan Chi]], and then requests that Sub-Zero takes her with him back to Earthrealm. The younger Sub-Zero also grants her asylum with the Lin Kuei and Sareena pledges eternal loyalty to the clan.
* SkunkStripe
* {{Stripperiffic}}
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Her "human" form is a disguise that she prefers to appear as, although she's lost control of this on at least one occasion. Possibly crosses over with ShapeshiftingSquick and HotSkittyOnWailordAction, seeing as she's Sub-Zero's ImpliedLoveInterest, and she's a demon...
* WomanInBlack: Strangely, in such a dark setting where black is particularly prominent for guys, she is about the only female to don a black outfit.
* YankTheDogsChain: Her efforts to be freed from her demonic side are often met with failure.
** ThrowTheDogABone: Her time with (the younger) Sub-Zero seems to be a complete 180 from the rest of her life, though.

!!Fujin
[[quoteright:256:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fujin_9942.png]]
[[caption-width-right:256:[[MemeticMutation Cool hairstyle, bro!]]]]

-->"Farewell Thunder God, I will not fail you."
-->-- His ''MortalKombat4'' ending.

-->'''Other appearances:''' ''MortalKombat4'' and ''MortalKombatArmageddon''. Cameo in ''MortalKombat9''.

--> Fujin is one of Raiden's god-guardians of Shinnok's amulet in ''Mythologies'', and the first of them which was challenged by Sub-Zero. He returned in ''4'' as one of the Earthrealm gods not being destroyed by Shinnok. He assists Raiden in his battle against Shinnok, and after his defeat, he was ascended to the Earthrealm protector status, while Raiden (who chose him as the replacement) was re-promoted to the Elder Gods pantheon.

--> In ''Armageddon'', he notices a behaviour change in his old friend. While Raiden was, technically, in the good guys' side, he also gained a ruthless side after realizing that HumansAreBastards and revived Liu Kang's corpse in order to send him to do a massive manslaughter. In spite of this, Fujin allied with Kung Lao in order to find a way to save both Raiden and Liu Kang. He learns that Johnny Cage is trying to gather the Forces of Light, and there's also a mention of the brothers Taven and Daegon, whose family has been friends with Fujin over the years. Argus (their father) sent them on a quest which was corrupted by evil. Fujin then goes to search for both brothers, hoping to prevent their progress and learn the true purpose of their quest.

[[caption-width-right:338:How many money did he invest in all that makeup?]]

-->'''Other appearances:''' ''MortalKombat4'' and ''MortalKombatArmageddon''. Cameo in ''MortalKombat9''.

* ActuallyADoombot: According to both his ''Armageddon'' ending and ''9'', the Shinnok present in ''Armageddon'' was nothing more than a clone sent by the real Shinnok, who was GenreSavvy enough to not sully his hand with either the big battle itself or the in-fighting of the villains.
* {{Archenemy}}: To Raiden, who cast him into the Netherrealm millenia before the main series started.
* AuthorAvatar: His ''MortalKombat4'' model is based on Midway Games' developer Steve Beran.
* TheBadGuyWins: He was the one who spread word of the prize of god-like power in ''Armageddon'', in order to make them die when Daegon killed Blaze. While Daegon failed, he was still able to win because most of his enemies had killed each other trying to get the prize leaving only him, Shao Kahn, Taven, and Liu Kang's spirit alive.
** Also, [[spoiler:in ''MortalKombat9'', Raiden letting Shao Kahn win in order to prevent Armageddon plays directly into Shinnok's plans, and leaves him with a very deadly set of minions while Earth's defenses have been left in pieces.]]
* BigBad: Of ''4''. [[spoiler:If the ending of ''9'' is any indication, he'll possibly be this in a future game.]]
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:In the SequelHook of ''MortalKombat9'', suggesting that the new timeline will see some adaptation of the storyline from ''4''.]]
* TheCorrupter: Preys on Daegon's fears of being TheUnfavourite to get him to kill his parents.
* DittoFighter: He could also switch between the other characters' moves with ease.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Before appearing in ''4'' and ''Armageddon''.
* EvilAlbino
* EvilSorcerer
* FallenHero: His backstory. His lust for power is what caused the other Elder Gods to exile him.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: As a Fallen Elder God, he's arguably the most powerful force of evil in the entire mythos, but he has a rather lackluster record as a gameplay character. In ''4'', he simply copied his enemies' moves, a clear ripoff of Shang Tsung minus the shapeshifting and not much harder to beat than the other characters. He got a slightly more original moveset in ''Armageddon'' but has still yet to compare to the toughest characters in the series.
* GodEmperor: Fallen Elder God, ruler of the Netherrealm, plans to rule over all of existence.
* GodOfEvil
* ManipulativeBastard: Pretty much his shtick in ''Mythologies'', although he's OutGambitted by [[spoiler:Quan Chi, who took the real Dragon Amulet for himself]]. Also, see "ActuallyADoombot".
* OmnicidalManiac: His goal is to consume all the energies of everything. [[PetTheDog Except Quan Chi]].
** Actually, Shinnok's reward for Quan Chi was [[BlessedWithSuck the gift of his own existence]]. It's easy to understand Quan Chi's frustration at this development, but [[KickTheSonOfABitch the guy had it coming]].
* OneWingedAngel: In ''Mythologies'', [[spoiler:he transforms into a [[NightmareFuel scary-ass]] demon... thing... as soon as Sub-Zero takes the amulet, but fighting him in this form is optional (and very difficult, though it unlocks a game blooper reel), as a portal leading to the end of the game opens up anyway]].
* PhysicalGod
* PowerFloats: In ''Mythologies''.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Is not happy with his fellow Elder Gods for casting him down.
* SorcerousOverlord
* StealthMentor[=/=]TreacherousAdvisor: To [[spoiler:the elder Sub-Zero]] in ''Mythologies''. Pulls this again in ''Armageddon'' with Taven.
