The thought of some germanic zweihander warrior did not escape me, Raven. At this rate, it'll turn into a Soul Calibur/Mortal Kombat crossover. But go nuts. ;)<br/><br/>Hee hee. I'm something of an aficionado of the Three Kingdoms, Interested. ;) As Gods would go, Guan Di would have only just begun to be considered one. He had a few sons in his mortal life and China wasn't much into demigodhood unless you go way back to the ancient myths like the Jade Emperor and whatnot. Koei even depicted him and his sons in their video games about the Three Kingdoms, if you're interested in someone a bit younger but in the same style. Ping (http://theotakusblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/06/shu-guan-ping.jpg?w=640) and the much more bishonen Suo.

The Lin Kuei, seeking to put an end to this traitorous off-shoot, would naturally give the Shirai Ryu a reason to side with Shao Kahn for protection... which would align the Lin Kuei with Earthrealm simply because of the feud.<br/><br/>So if anyone wanted to play a character from either branch of the Mortal Kombat Ninjas, there's some possible intrigue for you. ;-) I think I'll be playing Yamagi's boy toy (as soon as I come up with the character) so if anyone wants to intersect plotlines by being a member of the Lin Kuei partaking in the clan feud.... go nuts. :P
