I'm pretty sure the intention of this thread is to discuss potential new characters, not returning characters.
As for me, I'd like to see more gods and/or goddesses. So far we only have Raiden and Fujin, and I think it would be really cool to see other gods come into play, especially females. It could even involve gods of other realms instead of just Earthrealm gods. One interesting thought I've always had is who exactly are the "Outworld gods" that Raiden mentions in the MK3 intro who are supposedly now controlling Earthrealm with Shao Kahn's invasion? Are these gods perhaps subject to Shao Kahn, thus explaining his immortality? And do the gods of each realm that Kahn conquers become subject to his will once their realm is merged with Outworld? So many interesting avenues to explore!
Perhaps one Elder God character would also be interesting. So far we've had Shinnok as a playable character, and you can design a character with Elder God armor in Armageddon. An actual, non-fallen Elder God in mortal form as a protagonist might be a fun idea to explore.
After a Shaheen from Tekken and Rashid from Street Fighter, maybe there is probability of arabic style fighter in Mortal Kombat? You know, business move to catch players from middle east.
Maybe another sorcerer type of character that has a power mixture of both Quan Chi and Shang Tsung. I think Quan Chi would have a son to pass his evil legacy on to. Just like Kano and his son from his ending.
I also thought about it. New realms seems great. But we have few realms that also sound great, but they aren't properly exploited. For example Chaosrealm.

I don't think we need immediantly make new ones. We need to return to the Chaos realm and Seido first. Maybe Edenia should be freed from Outworld?
A tan skinned character with the ability of transforming into animals with a name like Karis. Also a character with a slight appearance to Shujinko, but with Reptillian skin.
2 nights ago, I thought of what the trailer for an MKX Story Pack DLC might be like. It would/should/could have people we REALLY wanted to see FROM THE BEGINNING: Sindel, Fujin, Stryker, Kabal, Frost, Smoke, Rain & Baraka. I also thought of after Smoke's name was revealed, he'd say, "Smoke is dead."
I'm going to be real here, as much as I love stryker (sarcasm) and that they made him better in mk9. I do not like him as a char in Mk. Lets lay down some facts this has always been about hand to hand combat and somebody with grenades and freakin guns doesn't fit. Drahim fit better! And he is just Meat with a mask and a hammer. I read on another blog that a good idea would be if Kabal as a revenant went on to the Black Dragon and became a part of it as originally inteneded. See the thing is the good made Kabal weak. The real Kabal wouldn't of let Sindel kill him. He would've speedblitzed her while the others would fight her hardcore. I don't care how many Shang Tsung power ups she got she still cannot be Johnny Cage, Nightwolf, Smoke, Jade, Kitana, Jax.
and Cyber Sub Zero. Smoke wouldn't be able to be touched and Jade has the pole and Jax in his 50s or whatever he is in MKX rekt revenant sindel. But im getting of topic. I'd love to see the return of Fujin. My god wasted potential right here. He was a really nice addition in MK4 and his role as protector when Raiden went wacko in original timeline and his bond with Kung Lao really gave him potential. But he got shipped off with the likes of freaking Hsu Hao in armageddon. He was a nice changed. This gos for the other Nature Gods like Fire God and Water God we cant just forget about them. Chameleon is another good choice. But not the rainbow lizard. You can leave the rainbow design but he can't be a copy ninja. He has good backstory with Reptile and Khameleon and how hes been since the first tournament lurking around. He deserves his own moveset. Not a reptile one though, I would like him to be a more tactical fighter.
Just realized that this was to discuss new characters. I just think they should expand on current characters because I doubt that a new batch of characters will be well recieved.

D'Vorah, maybe, if we're talking story. Gameplay wise, Ferra/Torr and Jacqui are some of the worst chars.

If it's true, this is just like begining of few MK characters. Ermac for example.
Belokk would be cool and I also have a suggestion. Everyone must remember the original concepts that were unlocked in the krypt in deadly alliance. There was Zebron (even though he was classified as a joke by Ed Boon), and a sketch of an evil demon with goat horns as well as sketches of unused characters but I agree that they do need more gods, ninjas and things. I have a name in mind for one of them Bronco, Woody and an idea of another child by a character that was in MK9 that was revived in the prequel comic to MK11, lets say Nightwolf. He would have had a niece or nephew who he hasnt met before if he had a brother or sister that would have had a baby while Nightwolf was a revenant.

Having more playable Gods would be great along with more magic chararcters and Kombatant customization.
That would probably depend on whether or not MK11 follows the Deception storyline, which I doubt considering there's no mention of Shujinko having gone on his quest (he just kinda shows up in the MKX comic and that's it)
Unless they have some other character doing the quest
Or how about Hydro? The only mention of that character was in the Blood and Thunder comics and in the live action Mortal Kombat: Legacy series. It'd be interesting if they turned him into a playable character, and how they might make him canon to the current timeline.

I'd also like to play as Hydro. Or at least see him in MK11.
How about a space character? Maybe gravitational or asteroidic manipulation. They could be a god. How about Emerald? You know, that old rumored character? She could have crystallokinesis. The only problem is that Tremor already kind of has that. Maybe if they didn't bring back Kharacter (yes, kharacter) variations it could work.
Why don't we add old rumored karakters like Red Robin, Nimbus Terrafaux, or Pedro? Well, not Pedro, he's a joke. But Khrome has a following, he could do something. There are a bunch of opportunities.
Nah... What made things like Nimbus Terrafaux unique was how they were elaborate hoaxes at the time. Sure, there was Ermac and Skarlet's evolution and eventual development, but that was or should be an exception rather than the rule. Do that too many times with rumored characters (make them eventually become real) and it'll lose its appeal after awhile. And Khrome was a joke who desperate fans used as an excuse to want another ninja. Anything that is or resembles a ninja will have a following in MK, so that's not saying much. Far as rarer ninjas we have now, at least Tremor was a character who officially existed, although an obscure fella from a failed spinoff, but anything more obscure than him I wouldn't really want or would see as a copout or a sign of them running out of ideas.
You make a fair point, my good sir (or madame. I can't know for sure), but these kharakters who have failed to exist could easily be added instead of more new characters. Don't get me wrong, the new kombatants are kool, but I believe that instead of throwing in new kombatants like pre-Armageddon, they could take these kharakters that have built up a following and add them to the roster.

That's fair I guess if done within reasonable amount. Always thought some concept characters like the Undead General of Onaga's army and Belokk would've been interesting to have. Of course then there's others like Zebron who should obviously remain a joke.

I agree, since Raiden has gone dark I would imagine the elder gods would send both champions and gods to deal with him which provides an opportunity to introduce/reintroduce gods and give them the new timeline look like Fujin's new clothes
I feel as though they need to introduce the non-playable and rumor characters as playable characters before they come up with more or at least bring on some of them while they bring on new characters.

If Onaga's heart had the power to resurrect Raiden after he sacrificed himself, and Raiden had the power to restore 3 (or 4 depending on how you counted it) of Quan Chi's revenants to life, there very well may be a way to revive demons like Drahmin. The question is, how?

I would assume that Onaga can resurrect just about anything as long as it used to be alive. Demons are included in this. I can see Onaga bringing back anyone remaining who is dead. I exclude, of course, anyone who is a revenant because they're already resurrected. I can see Shang Tsung and Quan Chi being resurrected by Onaga at this point. Also, anyone who is supposed to be "good" would need to be cleansed by the Jensai probably through Fujin this time being that Raiden is corrupted.
I feel like in case they create a second game with all the characters, try working with all the disliked characters like Hsu Hao or Drahmin like making them better designs or more interesting gameplay or something at all.
I can see Mavado, Hsu Hao, Drahmin, and Moloch being resurrected by Onaga. I don't know what Shujinko's living status is but he might be in that roster also.

What about Hydro in Mortal Kombat XI? That does merge comic book/Mugen character to make canon character to the franchise to replace Cyber Sub-Zero, would be playable on the variation of Triborg and Hydro can be canonical to the current timeline. I think part of Triborg and having Triborg body. I think be Hydro was from Mortal Kombat Project

We don't need Emerald for MK11. She's canonical only to the second game and Jade has a alternate name
What about Mileena for MK11? Can Mileena return as a DLC character becoming a new clone. So as clone of Mileena was murdered by D'Vorah. I think Mileena in MK11 as a revenant and DLC character in her new clone
Khrome is a Mortal Kombat character, he was appears in MKX as a cameo appearance. Ed will make Khrome for MK11, i think be Tarkatan white male ninja. More of an Tarkatan blades and claw. Khrome has Tarkatan teeth like Baraka and Mileena on the unmasked. So, he's not Smoke
And secondly. Belokk is canon only to the upgraded version of Mortal Kombat 4 named Mortal Kombat Gold that was character is rumored and non-canonical
If Mokap coming back. Is that it. Mileena as DLC, Khrome as playable character
Please me note, Mokap is dead. He's not coming back for MKXI. He's confirmed to be deceased from the Mortal Kombat X and Mileena is not dead and Khrome is not dead as well

Hey, no need for criticism. We're just saying it might be possible. BUT I do agree that Mileena is likely to be alive. I mean, in the MK9 story, Kitana saw more than one Mileena in Shang Tsung's Flesh Pits.
Saaed Sophy Abbas wrote: Sure, that was a another clone of Mileena on the Flesh Pits. I hope return Mileena in MK11 as a DLC in her new clone
But this Mileena may just be a blank slate. Like, she won't retain the memories of being Outworld's empress, the rebellion, anything that the 'first Mileena' did up until D'Vorah killed her

Maybe some Shang Tsung voodoo magic or Shao Kahn power curse made it that when Mileena was killed by D'Vorah, a new klone would awaken to take her exact place. I'd actually like to think the latter now, there's probably something that would cause that to happen that will...happen. (not sure if that last sentence makes any sense)

Well done, no really stays in MK, unless you're D'Vorah

Red Robin, Pedro and Nimbus Terrafaux were not ever canon. They were all rumor characters.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Ruby a rumor character as well?
Ultimately, whatever new character comes, I just hope there's a lot of originality. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the occasional inspired character like Ferra/Torrent being inspired by Master Blaster but let's get some NEW characters out there. Even new factions.
Bmwfan2015 wrote: Yeah. Some newly freshed heroes that aren't all just offsprings.
I can tolerate Sonya & Johnny's kid along with Kenshi's. Jacqui was alright. Kung Jin being gay is the worst.
I wish we got a niece/nephew of Nightwolf at least.
Plus some new faces.
As for villains? With D'Vorah out, imagine a spider Kytinn named Anansi. And who knows what other realms Outworld took. A viking would be nice.
I assume you're saying that about Kung Jin because of the forced gay agenda and not as a homophobe? I can't stand Cassie though; maybe if she's less of a sue the next game she'll become more tolerable for me, but not holding my breath. Jacqui was the worst received out of them iirc.
Would rather just have Nightwolf himself.
Eh, I guess. Don't see why D'Vorah would be left out this soon though; she got a lot of love where the lore's concerned.
Man, looking back I still can't believe the promotional line for MKX's story was that it was a blockbuster movie within a game. If it was, it was a really shit blockbuster film.
Perhaps a brand new Saurian warrior (not the Khameleons) who recently reverts back to their reptillian look, just like Reptile did, to discover one of their own kind honors their realm's conqueror. And make them look like the "Saurian" in the MKX mobile game.

I was thinking that if the kombatant is plant-based, I think that NRS would explain her dissapearance is that she was sealed away for some time or outed from the Elder Gods and wanting vengeance or something. -DinoLord00

Seems a bit cliche, but that wouldn't surprise me as an actual storyline for a new kharacter from NRS... I was thinking maybe she/he could be of a new race that has feuded with the Kytinn in the past, but even that sounds cliche as the words are spewing out of my mind onto my keyboard. I don't know about the background of the kharacter, but I've just recently thought after re-playing Pokemon Yellow that there has never been a plant-based kombatant in MK. It would be something completely new.
Most people seem to despise D'Vorah, but I think that's probably only due to her killing off other kharacters. As far as her look and gameplay is concerned, she is my favorite of all the new kombatants from MKX, because she is just so different from anything we've ever seen in the series. I believe a new plant-based kharacter could have the same effect.
Yeah, I agree. I have a feeling they would make this new plant-based kharacter look something like Groot if they're gonna do it at all. Maybe some curse from the Kytinn would spawn this character just like Goro cursed Motaro to be a minotaur. I would also assume that this race opposes Outworld too.

With how we got an archer user in MK, Kung Jin, after getting accustomed to Green Arrow in Injustice, I could see a plant-based character in MK next after getting Poison Ivy in Injustice 2...
And yeah, D'Vorah getting to kill some beloved fan-favorites was the only reason she became hated to an extent. Otherwise she's passable as a character. And yes, all those cliche story ideas you could do for a character has already been done in MK, in abundance.
I don't see why we couldn't have a character based on the Living Trees from the Living Forest. I'm not saying that we should have a walking tree but maybe someone who has bark for skin and leaves for hair. That's the simplistic version of what I would say but otherwise something that NRS should consider.
I loved the idea of a son/daughter of Liu Kang and Kitana, it's my favorite. I would say more, what about twins? I think it would be interessting to see brother and sister fighting, specially children of the New Rulers of Nether Realm.
Talking about Frost, I think perhaps she could be a rival and/or an affair to Takeda, a new view of the relation between Lin Kuei and Shirai Ryu.
I also would like to see a new member of the Shirai Ryu, a female one, and a new character based on kung fu.
To finish, I have a silly fan wish. I would like to see, if possible, Gabriel Belmont from Castlevania Lords of Shadow as a guest character and for the variations, if they keep it, make it similar to Triborg, putting three charactes in one. First variation could be Human Gabriel, with Vampire Killer Whip, second variation could be Dracul Gabriel with Chaos Claws and the third variation could be Alucard with Crissaegrim and/or Sword of Void.

What do you guys think?
I think a son/daughter of Liu Kang & Kitana travels from the future to prevent the coming of Onaga.
Takeda & Frost having an affair? No thanks. Scorpion held a grudge towards Bi-Han until the truth. So... with Frost trying to become the new Grandmaster by stealing the Dragon Medallion from Kuai Liang, Takeda would try to stop her from being a powerhungry tyrant.
No guest characters please.
For a new character, what about someone who does elasticity like Mister Fantastic & Plastic Man? We've seen Havik crack his body. Why not another chaosrealmer who can stretch his/her own body? We haven't explored the Realm of Chaos more. Give it a name like... Canaan. You know the land of Canaan with the Canaanites?

Liu Kang and Kitana's child from the future and Dark Raiden could be the new Deadly Alliance, joining forces or convincing his/her parents to make an alliance with Raiden (Or perhaps Kotak Kahn) to prevent Onaga's arrival. He/She/They (in case of twins) could be the main character(s).
This idea of elastic man made me remember Dhalsim from Street Fighter. To me he is a little creepy, could easily be a chaosrealmer.
Frost could have a puppet master behind, helping her to steal the medallion, but with other intentions. It's a good excuse to bring Shang Tsung back, or bring a new sorcerer/sorceress, perhaps from Red Dragon or loyal to Daegon, connecting it to Takeda's ending.
Onaga's needed by some like the now super crippled Goro. Good things could come of his return for some, even though others would naturally try to prevent it.
And I really like Gabriel Belmont as a character, but good luck brokering a deal with Konami on that.
Let's logically look at it too. When Onaga possessed Reptile in the original timeline did he become a Saurian version of Onaga? I don't think so. I seriously doubt that Onaga possessing Goro will make him a Shokan version of himself.
I'm also starting to wonder if Onaga really needs a specific species for him to possess because I don't recall of that being mentioned. It might be in Deception's Konquest, but I haven't played Konquest in a long time, so I don't know. -DinoLord00
Hm... I forgot where I heard it before, but I remember once hearing from someone or somewhere that Onaga looked the way he did in Deception because of possessing Reptile's body, while originally he looked different, which was why I had that assumption if he possessed Goro. You may be right though in that he'd look or be the same regardless of the body vessel he has. Would prefer it that way for simplicity's sake anyhow.
That's an interesting thought. Perhaps some who would try to form a rebellion with the other previously mentioned character ideas trying to free their realms from Outworld.
Godzillavkk and Peja1200 this could give us a new faction. These new Edenian characters could join Tanya. Perhaps could be interesting if Rain would join Kotal Kahn or Liu Kang and Kitana seeking for revenge against Tanya and the throne of Edenia.

Yes, specially if Kotal had some resource or power that could help Rain to achieve his goals; for exemple the golden skull in Jacqui's ending, in case of that become canon.
Me too. Its teeth resemble Tarkatan, but I think it's unlikely. Perhaps there is some ancient race hidden on earth. I'm very curious about why and from who would Kotal Kahn hide this skull in another realm.
Considering it's just a minor detail, I don't think they will (even though it would be nice if they did). However, according to his concept art description in MKX, they are of some sort of animal he slew from what I could recall. -DinoLord00
1. I really like the idea of there being a faction that is consisted of only Edenian characters. Like the Edenian Resistance would go up against Kotal Kahn to get Edenia unmerged from Outworld. They become successful then Tanya and Rain become the new king and queen of Edenia. I also like the idea of Kitana and, possibly, Sindel go up against Tanya and take back the crown. Of course, there's that whole "I'm evil now" thing with Kitana but it'll bring some awesome aspect to that plot.
and...
2. The skull mentioned in Jacqui's ending looks vampiric. I think it could be the indication of the vampires coming back to MK. Like we'll see Nitara in the next game. Moreover, I think the skull originally belonged to Kahil Grigesh and the worm-like things are him being resurrected.

The idea of vampires returning fit perfectly in my fan dream of Gabriel Belmont (with Dracul and Alucard variation) come as a guest character lol. Gabriel with Vampire Killer Battle Cross vs Nitara or another vamnpire character sounds cool.
Bring vampires back is a good idea and makes wonder who would they be loyal to?
If anything's for sure, the Vampires would NOT be loyal to Outworld
I like the idea of a resistance force not just of Edenians, but of all races who seek to unmerge their realms from Outworld - like someone mentioned before when we were discussing an idea for a new Kytinn.

The civil war in Outworld is an interesting idea. While Shao Kahn was trying to expand his domain, Kotal Kahn has to control what he has. Rebellion of races fits perfectly in the faction war concept. Different groups of resistance could give good new characters.
That skull could be a way to Kotal force vampires to serve him. Nitara, or a new vampire character, could be a leader of resistance against Kotal.
Ridley Prime wrote: Well hope then that the civil war doesn't end the same way as it did with Mileena and her supporters, otherwise it's rinse & repeat.
It can't. Kotal should know that if he kills the leader of this resistance, it would just make them a martyr by proving everything they thought about Kotal Kahn is true.
True enough. Hope to see some of the diplomatic side of Kotal Kahn again like in the comics. Otherwise it's kinda character assassination if he just silences all resistance groups...

Yes. Shao Kahn ruled Outworld for centuries and probably had more people loyal to him who would be mad because of Mileena's execution, while Kotal has only two decades. And the idea of Raiden invading outworld would possibly make more people see Kotal as bad ruler, once he is part of the reason of Raiden's change. People would sympthize more with Mileena, specially if one of those clones showed in MK9 return with her conscience. This would be "The Return of the Queen" or, in this case, of the Kahnum.
Godzillavkk wrote: I wonder if that could lead to a redemption for Mileena?
You mean she become hero or some kind of anti hero? Perhaps, once Kitana became villain. Switch the roles of the sisters would be interesting to see, at least to me. A crazier, but perhaps interesting thing to see would be Mileena releasing Kitana's soul (althought I prefer her as Dark Empress with Liu Kang). I also imagine a hypothetical alliance between Mileena and Raiden to turn her into the new ruler of Outworld under the deal of never attack Earthrealm.
P. S. I think I'm getting obsessed with faction war and alliances lol
Which I wish they would still do again in the new timeline, but you know, guys like Ermac are more minor when they have to take a backseat to the kombat kiddies of MKX.
I was remembering the idea of a Liu Kang and Kitana's son or daughter, or twins as I suggested (assuming revenants can have kids), coming from the future to prevent Onaga's arrival, or perhaps trying to bring him back (or both if are twins). Whatever the reason is, what do you guys think of having this, or these, character(s)?

Godzillavkk wrote: I dunno. Sounds too similar to the plot of MK9.
Indeed. But it could add interessting interactions between characters. Liu Kang and Kitana blame Raiden and his visions for their deaths and Raiden knows he made mistakes. How would Liu and Kitana feel when they see their kid (kids) doing the same think that ruined their lives? How would Raiden deal with someone doing the same thing he did? Would he help or try to stop? And if we add twins to the equation, we could see they fighting each other, one trying to release Onaga and the other trying to avoid his return.
Agreed. Unless he considers Frost as his daughter, he needs an heir. A kid from Kuai Liang could be a good character. Also he could be the first ninja character to have a family alive.
About the introduction, I imagine a CGI animation showing Goro's path from when Kotal Kahn took his arms till the moment he went to the Red Dragon and heard of Onaga. Then a hooded figure, a member of Red Dragon, offers to help Goro to achieve his goal, the figure would be the son or daughter of Liu/Kitana (in my mind is a daughter) whose plan is to turn Goro into Onaga's host.
The next scene shows Cassie's team in an opperation facing multiple enemies. Among them a hooded one is shown running when Cassie says "freeze". The hooded stops and a smile is shown under the hood, then starts a strike against Cassie. The rest of the team sees her been beaten up by the stranger and joins her but their kombat skills are'nt enough. Jacqui puts a gun against the head of the hooded one and pulls the hood of. The hooded one is the son, or daughter (in my mind is a son) of Liu/kitana who was just testing them to see if they are able to stop his/her twin and avoid Onaga's return.
What do you think? (perhaps I have exagerated a little lol)

If he and Sareena get together, he'll bring out a new Sub-Zero. Frost is unworthy.
I like what you have here as a general plot for something. Not sure if it fits with MK but I really like the idea of Liu Kang and Kitana having twins. I don't think the treat of Onaga constitutes a time travel story of "We need to stop this to prevent this" but I love the idea of Goro becoming the new host for Onaga.

I agree too. I think its time for Reptile to have more purpose and complete his quest in restoring his realm. It deserves peace.

Exactly, Reptile needs to be given uniqueness instead of suffering henchmen syndrome
Perhaps like with Shinnok taking on a korrupted form, maybe Onaga can merge with the One Being like in his Deception ending. And whoever is the lucky player character to fight him in story mode also needs to merge with some sort of power. The Jinsei or Elder Gods are prime canidates.
Next questions is WHO should fight Onaga? So far, Liu Kang, Raiden, Johnny and Cassie have beaten the final boss. I can see 2 canidates.
Shujinko: IF NRS wants to keep MK tradition going strong, Shukinko would be a prime candidate as her defeated Onaga in the previous timeline. If he did it once, he can do it again.
Scorpion: Despite being the most popular MK character, Scorpion has never really gotten his chance to shine in the spotlight, this could be his chance.

That'd be a great idea, it'd be cool to play as an Elder God champion against The One Being

Liu Kang and Kitana are two of my favorite characters, specially now. When I read the first idea of a son from the future it drove me crazy and I started wondering things.
I think this could be a good main plot or subplot to an MK11 and I think unfortunately Liu Kang and Kitana will maketheir last appearance in the next game.

I imagine Scorpion facing Onaga merged with the One Being as redemption and farewell, probably with a last partnership with Sub Zero; and imagine perhaps The One Being leaving Onaga to try return in the futre.
Paritcularly, it will sound repetitive, I would like to see the good twin facing Onaga, considering the idea of Liu/Kitana children from the future. Even because a character merged with the Jinsei would be probably too powerful to be in this time line and the good twin could just return to the future with the power or, what sounds better to me, use the full power acquired to bring Liu Kang and Kitana back and die in the process.

How did you fail, your MK11 plot is really good. I'm trying writing as well and I'm hoping it goes well
What about Kotal Kahn and his forces? If the offspring of Liu Kang and Kitana travels back to the past to stop the fighting between Earthrealm & Outworld and to bring back his parents and the other revenants, he/she needs all realms to work together to stop the One Being's return.
I'm still not sure if a time travel plot is warrented. I think that we could still have the twins but they need to be of this time. I could see one of the twins having the ability to see into the future (the good one) and trying to prevent Onaga/The One Being's return.

The One Being needs Onaga as the key.
Good idea. The One Being could be an "architect" who planned a war between the realms so that he could work without been noticed. The evil twin could work to him while the good twin is trying to stop him.
How do you imagine a partnership good twin and Reptile?

The idea is good, but propably it would be necessary another twenty years time skip to put the twins in the current time as playable characters and part of the story, unless they would be only part of of the story or they are similar to Ferra/Torr.
The idea of visions could create an interesting subplot. Once Liu Kang hated Raiden's visions he could reject the twin with this ability and embrace the other. The good twin could be embraced by Shaolin. Perhaps raised by Kung Jin, Kung Lao, Bo' Rai Cho or, it might sound weird, he/she could be adopted by Johnny Cage or Sonya, or Both, or even Cassie.
Another interessting possibility would be the good twin be raised by a Mileena clone with a good side. (I think I'm going a little too far lol)
I wonder what a nature god in MK would be like? Most nature dieties throughout mythology and fantasy have had two sides to them, a side that is kind, another that is deadly, since nature itself can be both of those. Here are two forms a nature god can take.
1. A Nature Mother. The most popular form nature dieties have taken throughout real life mythology and modern fantasy is a motherly goddess. Kind and gentle at times, but other times deadly and fierce, especially if her wild children are threatened.
2. A Horned Hunter. A somewhat unknown form a nature god can take is the Horned God. Often associated with hunters, and the wilder sides of nature, these dieties usually permit hunting, provided it's responsible hunting, because if you're a poacher, you're prey for the horned one.

For the good twin and Reptile? Anything a bit like Goku & Piccolo. Due to Reptile green.
Kotal's caught up with war on Earthrealm, Reptile and he/she can work together to figure out a way to align both alliances to fight as one to stop the One Being's acolytes and the One Being itself.
But how do you picture the One Being if it became a fighter for the first time?

The first image tha comes to my mind when talking about a Horned God in a game version is Pan in Castlevania Lords of Shadow and his brother Agreus in the second game. Probably horned nature god in MK Univers would look like one of them. Or perhaps a centaur. I know we have had Motaro, but I think a centaur similar to those in God of War 3 or Harry Potter could fit, although it breaks the idea of horned. Thinking of that, Motaro could have been this nature god.
For the female version I imagine two characters whose appearance could fit int a MK Universe's Nature Goddes:
One is Enchantress from Suicide Squad; her appearence kinda fits in a deadly goddess, considering MK style.
The other is Carmilla from Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2. I know Carmilla is a villain, but I see her appearance and clothes close to what a motherly nature goddes could look like, just changing her skin color to green or something.

It might sound funny, but your idea brought me to mind the relation between Aang and Zuko.
This would be an awesome plot.
For the appearance of The One Being as a fighter, if not merged with Onaga as Godzillavkk said, I imagine him similar to Dr. Manhattan, but in an armour, to Kamui Seiya or similar to Satan from Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2.
Also imagine him merged with Onaga, but then the Dragon King's body is destroyed and he assumes one of the forms I said.

Anyway.... how do you picture the One Being's acolytes?
I can imagine a Norse-like fighter possessing powers from Odin, Thor or Loki.
And Egyptian? A new Seidan warrior with those traits would be nice. Tell that to the pyramids.

I kind of wondered why there wasn't a superhero character in MK. There's plenty of people who could assume the identity of a superhero but they just don't. How about one who fights with the fact that Mortal Kombat is about fighting to the death. If he's truly a hero, he will struggle between fatalities and taking the villain in.

I imagine a character similar to Captain America, Punisher or Daredevil. I think a vigilante fits in MK Universe or the Zack Snider version of Superman.
There is one character whose style looks perfect to MK, it's kinda superhero but is from a manga. He is Zetman, from homonymous manga and anime.

Plus, you'd think the MK Tournament would attract at least one superhero's attention.
But since Onaga might use Goro as his new vessel, Imagine that? Anyway.... how do you picture the One Being's acolytes?
I can imagine a Norse-like fighter possessing powers from Odin, Thor or Loki.
And Egyptian? A new Seidan warrior with those traits would be nice. Tell that to the pyramids.
"But since Onaga might use Goro as his new vessel..." It's Ed Boon version of Inception. DiCaprio is The One Being lol
I like the ideia of a Norse-like character, specially that I've always imagined a dream match between Raiden and Odin, Thor or Zeus.
The idea of an Egyptian-like fighter made remember En Sabah Nur from X-Men Evolution. Would be really nice to see such kind of character.
Well for anything Egyptian pantheon, think of something like Anubis, Serket and Osiris.
And anything Greek/Roman in mind?
And since Hindu has some Goro, Kintaro & Sheeva....
Anubis is cool. Definitely one figure that fits perfectly in MK. An Anubis-like character, or Anubis himself would definitely be an awesome thing to add.
For Greek/Roman, I think once we had Kratos, even though he was just guest, we could have any of the gods in the game. They could use their Roman couterparts like Jupiter, Pluto, Minerva, Mars, Diana, Phoebus, Vulcanus etc. O can easily see some of them facing Kotal Kahn, who has the titles of God of War, God of Sun and God of Blood. Once Greek/Roman gods are usually portrayed as arrogants and egocentric, they could easily defy Kotal just for pride.
What about a Roman centurion, would it fit as a character in MK? Like Marius Titus from Ryse: Son of Rome?
What about an elf character, a Celebrimbor, Thranduill or Legolas-like? Perhaps an elven king trying to protect his realm or to avenge it.
I imagine a CGI scene with an elvish army like those from LotR, The Hobbit or Shadow of Mordor facing a powerful enemy and this character in the front line with shine armour, two swords or a spear and Dark Raiden watching him from far with Scorpion by his side wondering if the elven king is a threat to Earthrealm.

I could imagine a realm with elf-like beings similar to those from Hellboy.
Since the Oshtekk like Kotal Kahn, a race of those connecting to Celtic pantheon/myth could work. But which side will they join? Heroes or villains? Or themselves.
Also, come to think of it, I would love to see some characters who come from a realm that was in their 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, or even 9th straight tournament with Outworld and they come back thinking that they have to once again defend their realm but turns out that Kota Kahn could care less.
They kind of did the whole Hindu thing so far. Goro, Kintaro, Sheeva all are thoughts of Ghanesh. Sheeva is just another spelling for Shiva a death goddess. Not to say they shouldn't do more Hindu based influences but still. They're there.

I'm just saying that's possible. But it might also be that somehow this klone retains all memories of the Mileena that died in front of the emperor. Maybe some Shang Tsung voodoo magic or Shao Kahn power curse made it that when Mileena was killed by D'Vorah, a new klone would awaken to take her exact place. I'd actually like to think the latter now, there's probably something that would cause that to happen that will...happen. (not sure if that last sentence makes any sense)
Well done, no really stays in MK, unless you're D'Vorah
Mileena is dead since Mortal Kombat X and will be resurrected as a revenant in Mortal Kombat XI. Mileena can come back in Mortal Kombat 12 and Mortal Kombat 13.

Khrome doesn't exist in MKX and Belokk was cut from MKX, Khrome was just a dubbed version of Human Smoke. Ed Boon dubbed him.

Mokap is no longer appeared to the roster because Mokap is officially dead as of March 13, 2015. The joke characters in MK didn't make the cut to the roster.

Red Robin, Pedro and Nimbus Terrafaux were not ever canon. They were all rumor characters.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Ruby a rumor character as well?
No, yes and maybe.
No, Ruby doesn't really exist in Mortal Kombat II and she's not gonna to be rumored character. I think that Ruby was a non-canon character in Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm. And Ruby isn't a female version of Ermac.
Pedro was just a another Stryker, but was removed from Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.
As for Red Robin. It's just a another Ermac and Red Robin is a glitched version of Reptile.
Nimbus Terrafaux isn't Jax. Nimbus Terrafaux was just a another boxer in MK.
Nice list, here's mine. It has 49 characters and 15 dlc characters:

DLC: Quan Chi, Stryker, Sindel, Johnny Cage, Jax, Nightwolf, Sonya Blade, Reiko, Mileena and 5 guest characters (even though I don't want to add it though)
Godzillavkk wrote: I wonder what a nature god in MK would be like? Most nature deities throughout mythology and fantasy have had two sides to them, a side that is kind, another that is deadly since nature itself can be both of those. Here are two forms a nature god can take.
1. A Nature Mother. The most popular form nature deities have taken throughout real-life mythology and modern fantasy is a motherly goddess. Kind and gentle at times, but other times deadly and fierce, especially if her wild children are threatened.
2. A Horned Hunter. A somewhat unknown form a nature god can take is the Horned God. Often associated with hunters, and the wilder sides of nature, these deities usually permit hunting, provided it's responsible hunting because if you're a poacher, you're prey for the horned one.
The first image that comes to my mind when talking about a Horned God in a game version is Pan in Castlevania Lords of Shadow and his brother Agreus in the second game. Probably horned nature God in MK Univers would look like one of them. Or perhaps a centaur. I know we have had Motaro, but I think a centaur similar to those in God of War 3 or Harry Potter could fit, although it breaks the idea of horned. Thinking of that, Motaro could have been this nature God.
For the female version I imagine two characters whose appearance could fit int an MK Universe's Nature Goddes:
One is Enchantress from Suicide Squad; her appearance kinda fits in a deadly goddess, considering MK style.
The other is Carmilla from Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2. I know Carmilla is a villain, but I see her appearance and clothes close to what a motherly nature goddess could look like, just changing her skin colour to green or something.
I love the idea of a Gaea type character with a male side to her to represent Mother Nature and Father of the Hunt
The only probllem with "hunt" characters though is thatif a bow and arrow were their main weapon, it'd be kind of useless considering we have Kung Jin. -DinoLord00
How about instead of a bow and arrow, they use a spearthrower, a weapon even older then the bow and arrow that the earliest hunter/gatherer tribes used?
DinoLord00 wrote: The only problem with "hunt" characters though is that if a bow and arrow were their main weapon, it'd be kind of useless considering we have Kung Jin. -DinoLord00
I envisioned the hunter aspected to be primal/tribal and use makeshift style weapons like tooth daggers and poisonous gas bombs

It might sound funny, but I imagined a dominatrix-like character, in her forties, mixing abilities of DC's Scarecrow and Poison Ivy, Avatar's water benders and Smoke (the ability of becoming mist) who is able to rivalize with Sindel.
I also imagined an alchemist with appearance similar to Integra Winsgate Hellsing, also to Red Dragon and a skillful former gambler or knife thrower to Black Dragon.
