Description

Hi again, fellas, now I’ve decided to feature a character not so popular in MK-universe but really interesting to me. Here comes Rain!

You can find my still expanding MK-roster here: [link]

Story.
Long time ago most powerful Edenian gods Pulpos and Argus had been fighting for the lordship over the realm. Argus had been victorious, and he precipitated Pulpos into the deep underground sea. Degraded and prostrate, Pulpos was waitng for his time in the darkest sea depths...

Valiant and handsome general Rain of Edenia was king Jerrod’s favorite and was deeply in love with his master’s daughter, Kitana. Princess had the same feelings to the valourous warrior, and both wanted to get married one day. But their joy wasn’t to last forever. Terrifying hordes from the Outworld suddenly invaded Edenia. Rain left to fight but he promised his only love, when the war would be over, nobody could do them part.

Rain died at that war. It was gargantuan mutant Goro of Shokan tribe who killed him.

Mad with grief, princess Kitana called upon ancient fallen god Pulpos and awoke him to take her vengeance on Outworld invaders. But she couldn’t expect that Pulpos would be resurrected in the body of her dear Rain. It was also a bitter irony that Rain was a bastard son of Argus – that very god who defeated Pulpos so long ago.

Possessed by the dark entity, general Rain returned from the Netherealm. His face was deformed and corrupted with ugly tentacles while his soul was split in two: one half belonged to Pulpos, other one was still trying to struggle...


Comments.
- I came up with this concept playing MKT. I thought: almost every ninja in MK shows us what's behind the mask. Scorpion shows us a skull, Kitana – her beautiful face, Meleena – her beautiful teeth, Reptile – well, his beautiful face too ;). So I thought, what can Rain hide behind the mask? And the answer came easily, because of water-based nature of Rain: IT IS TENTACLES HE HIDES!
- I think some kind of homage to cthulhu mythos suits my MK setting pretty well – so it’s not about just tentacles, but old fallen gods too ^_^.
- There would be two variants of Rain’s endings possible: with the inner victory of Edenian and with the triumph of Pulpos. In the second one it would be great to see some love scene with Kitana and tentacles, if you know what I mean lol.
