Name: Mike Shepard
Game Name: Shao Kahn
Race: Half-Dragon
Appearance:
Shao Kahn is an absolute force of nature. Towering and battle-scarred, his dragon heritage is evident in his imposing physique and fearsome presence. His signature horned helmet and glowing red eyes strike fear into anyone who dares face him. With crimson shoulder guards lined with wicked spikes and a skull-emblazoned chest plate, he's a walking symbol of domination.
Abilities:
Shao Kahn doesn't just fight — he annihilates. He's a dual-class powerhouse, switching between a bone-crushing Barbarian and a sinister Magic Caster.
As a Barbarian: He thrives in the chaos of close combat. His weapon of choice? The legendary Wraith Hammer — a massive, brutal weapon he can summon in an instant. Every swing hits like a landslide, and his sheer strength alone is enough to knock foes off their feet. As a Magic Caster: When he's not smashing enemies to bits, Shao Kahn channels dark, destructive magic. His energy blasts and scorching fireballs can level the battlefield, while his signature green magic spear impales enemies from a distance with ruthless precision. And if that's not enough, his mastery of black and blood magic makes sure his enemies feel every ounce of his wrath.
While his magical abilities are nothing short of terrifying, Shao Kahn lives for the thrill of battle. He loves the rush of charging headfirst into the fight, delivering devastating blows, and proving his dominance. Magic is a tool — but brute strength? That's where the fun begins.
Now it's time to discuss his general guardians. I will ensure they hold the same power level as the Nazarick floor guardians.
Known collectively as "The Emperor Daggers," the sisters are fiercely loyal to their father, Shao Kahn, and will kill anyone who dares to oppose him.
Mileena: She is the more sadistic and bloodthirsty of the sisters, reveling in the torment of her victims. Mileena has a longstanding rivalry with Kitana. Although both sisters share similar qualities, Mileena differs due to having more Tarkatan blood, as she was born in the flesh pits. Kitana initially struggled with this fact, but Shao Kahn ultimately convinced her to accept Mileena as her sister.
Kitana: Loyal and eager to prove her strength, Kitana is the first to jump into a mission, even when it is not necessary. She is friendly towards Jade, but her rivalry with Mileena is intense, with both sisters constantly trying to outdo each other. Nevertheless, during important missions, she sets aside her personal feelings to ensure the job is done correctly.
Jade: Unlike her sisters, Jade was adopted by Shao Kahn and raised as if she were his biological daughter. She is more level-headed than Mileena and Kitana, often acting as the voice of reason. Jade maintains friendly relationships with both sisters and frequently intervenes to stop their fights. She typically takes the lead in formulating plans during missions.
Shang Tsung
Although loyal to Shao Kahn, Shang Tsung often devises his own plans and carries them out without Shao Kahn's knowledge. However, these plans typically aim to strengthen Shao Kahn while also helping Shang gain more power. He possesses a unique ability: when he takes someone's soul, he not only regains his youth but also heals any wounds he has sustained.
Goro
Goro is a formidable warrior who is fiercely loyal to Shao Kahn. He is quick to engage in battle against anyone who opposes him, displaying a hotheaded and stubborn demeanor. Goro is convinced he is the mightiest warrior and is eager to prove his strength. Additionally, he is of royal lineage, as he is the prince of the Shokan.
Baraka
A deadly warrior like Goro, Baraka is a bit more vicious and bloodthirsty, as he not only kills his enemies, he will gladly eat them or feed them to his Tarkatan people, as they are cannibals. With that said, he is a loyal soldier to Shao Kahn and is a general of all Tarkatans.
Quan Chi
Quan Chi is a powerful warlock known for his expertise in raising the dead and utilizing dark magic. Similar to Shang Tsung, he possesses his own ambitions and strategies while remaining loyal to Shao Kahn. His plans primarily focus on strengthening Shao Kahn and building a more formidable army for him.
Skarlet
Skarlet, also known as the "Blood Mistress," is a master of various forms of blood magic. Although she is a sorceress, she acts more like a rogue, infiltrating enemy camps to eliminate targets quietly, much like the "Emperor's Daggers." On some missions, she even joins her allies to assist them. While she is loyal to Shao Kahn, she also spies on others and reports their activities back to him.
That's it for now, but more outworld characters will be shown soon... I hope you all will enjoy the story.
