Smoke
Originating from Prague, Tomas Vrbada was recruited by the Lin Kuei for
his impressive ability to escape capture. Able to transform into a wisp
of smoke, his talent has proved useful on countless missions. Smoke has
no memory of his childhood. His only family is the Lin Kuei, more
specifically the younger Sub-Zero, who is like a brother to him. It has
been Smoke's hope that through the Lin Kuei he will discover his past--
and the origin of his power.
