Our headcannons and only them. Nothing is known about how the gods-protectors defeated Shinnok when his first invasion happened. And knowing that Raiden once used necromancy, we assume that at that time both brothers were forced to resort to the dark art of resurrection.
Known then as Acheron, Fujin excelled in forbidden knowledge, which he vowed to forget forever. His art was buried and consigned to oblivion along with the sad name of Acheron's.
Sibling/family relations in mk is fucking depeessing
First and second timeline Kuai Liang and Bi Han, Bi han gets killed and (unwilling/unknowingly) becomes quan chis servant making them enemies, cause NRS doesn’t know how to keep characters alive.
mk1 Bi han betrays Kuai Liang and Tomáš, leaving Kuai Liang with a scar and even chasing them down……. R u fcking kidding me
Second timeline Kitana and Mileena, Mileena was a clone of Kitana, that Kitana didn’t even know was made. Albeit Mileena is definitely not sane, but she always looks to Kitana as a sister, while Kitana refuse to acknowledge her (second timeline Kitana had some dick-ish moments ex. Intros with Kung Lao in MkX). Their Mk1 counterparts are actually siblings but Kitana has to watch her sister deal with Tarkat, while Mileena has to deal with it, so a bit better with some tragedy and probably more to come.
Raiden and Fujin, both gods and has a sort of sibling (I repeat SIBLING) relationship through the eons they’ve been existing. Fujin has a more keen interest to mortals than Raiden. They both have to deal with the aftermath of earthrealms champions and co. being killed, two which they saw grow up (Kung Lao and Liu Kang) then, with the dark power starting to corrupt Raiden, Fujin has to watch his brothers ultimat downfall to madness, until the whole Kronika being a bitch happens.
Kung Lao and Jin. Cousins or Uncle and nephew, depending on the game. Jin hardly knew Lao before he was killed when he was probably 5, his family ultimately went unstable, leaving him to thievery to put food on the table. Not to mention Jin probably had some pressure to be like Lao growing up. So the only person who would treat him decently for his sexuality was killed when he was a child. (That one Raiden and Kung Lao intro in mk11)
There are probably other characters I could add but I’m tired…
heyyy I just saw ur post and so I was wondering if you could do MK Intros for Fujin, Nightwolf, Kuai Liang, and Kung Lao ? thx for all the hard work 💗🙏
Hey!!! Thank you so much for this request <3 you didn’t specify what kind of genre you were looking for (light-hearted, angst, etc) so I just went with the flow. I also got some inspiration from @azul-marie and her wonderful mk post about intros with a goddess reader and I loved it!!
This is a concept I’ve been meaning to try, I hope y’all like it <3
MK Character Intros
Various x Dark!Goddess!Reader
Characters: Fujin, Nightwolf, Kuai Liang, and Kung Lao + Bonus character at the end ;)
Context: The characters knew Y/N before she became the dark version of herself, it’s a similar concept to Dark Raiden. Y/N had a past relationship with each of the characters.
Part 2
Fujin: “What happened to you?” A pained expression flickered across his face as he readied his sword.
Y/N: “What needed to happen.”
Fujin: “Greed is a want, never a need.”
Fujin: “What happened to you?”
Y/N: “I’m surprised you noticed.”
Fujin: “Of course I did, you were my world.”
Y/N: “I wasn’t. Your world was Earthrealm.”
Fujin: “Come back to us, we can help you.”
Y/N: She scoffs, rolling her eyes. “And get locked in an inescapable cage? I’ll pass, thanks.”
Fujin: He says nothing, Y/N’s words hurt him too much to speak.
Nightwolf: “You are going down a wrong path, Y/N.”
Y/N: “You dare defy a GOD?”
Nightwolf: “No god would commit such cruelties.”
Nightwolf: “You are going down a wrong path, Y/N.”
Y/N: “It’s Lady Y/N to you.”
Nightwolf: “I don’t remember you having an ego.”
Nightwolf: “Where’s my Y/N?” He spit the words out, anger filling his eyes.
Y/N: “I’m right here, sweetheart.” A chuckle left her lips as she watched Nightwolf’s scowl deepen.
Nightwolf: “You’re merely a vessel she left behind.”
Y/N: She walks into the arena with her head held high, an intimidation tactic. “On your knees.”
Kuai: “I will not bow to you.”
Y/N: “Then do not expect mercy."
Y/N: “On your knees.”
Kuai: “I will not bow to you.”
Y/N: “That’s not what you said last night.”
Kuai: “You’ve become cold and brash.”
Y/N: “We’re more similar than you think.”
Kuai: “We are nothing alike.”
Kung Lao: “I happened to overhear your conversation with Sub-Zero, is your offer still on the table?” A smirk was plastered on his face as he spoke.
Y/N: “I’m looking for humble worshippers, not those who will use my name in vain.”
Kung Lao: “Then I’ll just keep screaming your name until you hear me.”
Y/N: “You’d be a useful ally.”
Kung Lao: “I’m done being a wingman.”
Y/N: “That’s not what it looks like to me.”
Y/N: “You’d be a useful ally.”
Kung Lao: “Little ol’ Lao working alongside a goddess? It would be my honor.”
Y/N: “Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.”
Bonus character!
Dark Raiden: “Look at what you’ve become.”
Y/N: “The same can be said for yourself.”
Dark Raiden: “Hmph.”
Y/N: “Still lurking in the dark, are we?”
Dark Raiden: “For as long as you are.”
Y/N: “Oh honey, I am the night.”
Y/N: “When are you going to stop lying to yourself? When did you ever protect Earthrealm?”
Dark Raiden: “Even gods make mistakes.”
Y/N: “Not me. Never me.”
And that wraps up my first mk request <33 this was so much fun to write and I hope I’ll write more intros in the future :) requests are currently open so feel free to hmu! lmk if y’all want a part 2 to this :D
Hi I would like to say that I just love your headcanons I literally spent hours on your posts, I would like to know if I could do a Headcanon with Fujin, Raiden and Dark Raiden reacting to your S/O giving up on them after they said they didn't want anything to do with them (it wasn't quite what they wanted to say, they were just scared because of the earth plane) and seeing your S/O smiling at someone else, sorry for my english and if it got confused, thanks in advance <3
thank you so much, nonny! this is a little confusing but i think i know what you mean
MK Lads x S/O Who Leaves Them
Fujin
Alexa, play 'You give love a bad name' by Bon Jovi
Fujin is crushed! He knew that staying in Earthrealm stressed you out, but thought he would have more time to figure things out with you
When you tell him that you're done with him, his whole world stops for a moment. But because he loves you, he lets you go
He had no intention of running into you ever again, he know it will only cause him pain. He accidentally sees you in Outworld, smiling at what must be your new partner, and his heart breaks all over again
In order to distract himself, he keeps busy with other tasks, and maybe he'll find new love, but he'll never really forget you
Raiden
When you told Raiden to choose between you or Earthrealm, he feels sick
Raiden loves you and wants to stay with you, but he is in no position to give up on Earthrealm, which he is sworn to protect
When you say that you're done with him, he lets you walk away. Perhaps this is the price he pays for Earthrealm, he thinks to himself
If he notices you smiling at someone else, he'll force his bitterness down, and won't say anything. He knows that the safety of Earthrealm is worth abandoning true love
Dark!Raiden
Raiden has lost so much already, and now even you will abandon him?
With Shinnok's amulet, he is stronger than ever, yet you would forsake him and his devotion because you don't like Earthrealm? Raiden is furious, when you tell him that you're done with him, you are met with angry screams and a violent lightning storm
If you refuse to come back to Earthrealm, then Raiden will bring Earthrealm to you. He will begin an aggressive campaign to subject all other realms to the superiority of himself and Earthrealm
At this point, nothing can be done to placate the darkness inside his heart, if he sees you smile at someone else, that person will be killed. He considers it your punishment for being stupid enough to reject his love
Today I serve you a silly little headcanon that Dark Raiden wears funny, colorful socks in secret because he deserve some colors too ;m; (also my scrappy sketch taa-daah)
