Raiden
Raiden is the God of Thunder and Protector of Earthrealm. Ageless and
wise beyond measure, he leads Earthrealm's mortals in the endless battle
against the forces of darkness. When Shao Kahn, Emperor of Outworld,
threatened to merge his realm with Earthrealm, an overwhelmed Raiden
implored the Elder Gods to give Earthrealm a fighting chance. Thus the
Mortal Kombat tournament was created. For millenia Shao Kahn has been
kept at bay, but nine consecutive losses to Goro have eroded hope that
Earthrealm can be saved. Determined to prevent Armageddon, Raiden tirelessly
quests to find a champion worthy of Mortal Kombat.
