Rain
(LAST UPDATE: 11/26/2009)

GENERAL/STORY:
Rain fights valiantly for the emperor Shao Kahn, but it would be Kahn's own step daughter, The Princess Kitana who turns Rain against him. Like Kitana, Rain's origins also come from their former realm of Edenia. He learns that his father was once a general in Edenia's army and died at the hands of Shao Kahn himself. Enraged at the truth about his history, he joins Kitana in aligning with the Earth Realm Warriors. But his allegiance comes under question when he mysteriously disappears during an extermination squad attack. To prove his loyalty he embarked on a suicide mission to destroy Shao Kahn and end the menace once and for all.

REVIEW:
Okay, so in the MK series we have a blue ninja, a yellow ninja, a green ninja, a red ninja... I see where this is going Midway... You left out the purple ninja, why not! Midway's designers rehashed the classic ninja design once again. Nearly all of Rain's original animations were borrowed from the other ninjas, and although he had some unique moves, his fighting style was on the bland side. Midway re-invented him in MK: Armageddon, but like most characters in that game, he was a pretty hollow design. Yeah, his fighting style was more respectable in that game, but still... *yawn*
