I got some character ideas that can be useful for the next game.

- Muay Thai fighter based on Tony Jaa, since Liu is based on Bruce Lee
- A mage that rivals Shang Tsung & Quan Chi. He/she possesses crystals.
- A dryad who could possess plants & flora.
- A cyborg created by Sektor to control metals & magnetism.
- Outworld warriors: one can control the bones from his own body
- A witch who was once a lover to Shang Tsung.
- A rival shaman to Nightwolf who joins the Red Dragon. Possessing lycanthropy.
- An archangel and champion sent by the Elder gods possessing light & energies of man.

Anyone got any?

Well I for one would wanna see Liu & Kitana raise a son. One who can have his own moveset like... control time.

Plus I wanna see another ninja but from the Tengu clan who could use the power of birds & the Tengu.

Maybe we could introduce a master of metal, somebody with giant metal pieces of PVC pipe who molded them instantly with his mind, or somebody who can utilizeattacks based on light.

Like Reptile of the Saurians of Zaterra.

There can be an insect race with a warrior called Arachnid wielding the powers of a spider, tarantula & scorpion; unlike Scorpion.

There can be like one almost like Mandarin & another almost like Doctor Strange.

funny thing is...we all throw shit to Ed Boon and his tam when they create characters like Hsu Hao, Dairou, Darrius, Hotaru, etc...
but when it comes to us, t creae something decent, we do even worse.
The MUGEN community is a good example of this.

Honestly, none of the ideas stated abve is good in my opinion.

A character able to manipulate time or with demoniac features would be cool, though

Knowing Sonya only had one threat, in The Black Dragon ( particularly Kano)....I would like to see a real female ninja assassin to come into the story, to feud with Sonya.
Jax should be brought back partially human with actual cyborg parts and programmed by Sektor.

How some warriors from the realm of chaos. Havik shouldn't be the only one.

How about a clown/jester from that realm with elastic arms, cards, knives & stuff.

How about a white ninja who controls air? Different of smoke of course. He could have air blasts, tornados, etc.

Krystal: A female assasin that can summon crystals at will and has a crystal dagger. Has very good martial arts skills

Any thoughts for warriors from Seido & the realm of chaos?

The clown idea of mine surely fits in Havik's homerealm.

Hotaru possesses lava is there anyone else in Seido besides Darrius & Dairou.

Jax is a cyborg as of MK9. He is not a Cyber Ninja like Sektor or Cyrax.

Hotaru is my favorite 3D era character and he can also use his lava to blind people! check Kenshi's MKD ending. Hotaru has hella potential.

As for Dairou the tombstone drop is cool and unique. I wouldn't mind seeing him again.

Since Darrius causes riots I think he should throw molotovs and stuff.

And for new characters I think another character from the Chaosrealm would be right, Id like it to be a big scary beast but give him a funny personality.

That girl from Jade's MK9 ending should be playable.

Overall I would rather see old characters reintroduced as badasses than just giving us a bunch of new characters. Though we do need some new characters.

For MK10 roster i would like to see:

MK9 roster + DLC and Bosses
+8 old characters
+4 new characters

If we need another warrior from the realm of chaos, it should be a clown/jester using elasticity.

A drag queen, seriously.

Given the immense amount of creativity and input that goes into the creation of a drag persona, the possibilities for such a character are endless. The character will never wear even remotely the same thing twice, and his powers can fused within the costume he wears.

I know it's a longshot, but I think this would make for a great character with amazing gameplay, and with an appearance people would be itching to see from game to game, like Tekken's Yoshimitsu.

Honestly,I don't want new characters...yet,because I want NRS to flesh out some awesome of 64 Armageddon (including Skarlet) characters,like Reiko,Shinnok,Tanya,Sareena,Fujin,Kai,Havik and even Drahmin and Hotaru. All I want for them to make an awesome designs and gameplay for these guys,because there is so much potential right here. Plus,I would love for them to FURTHER develop characters from MK9 with new costumes and gameplay moves.

New characters shouldn't be brought in until MK11 or something,IMHO,plenty of characters with lots of potential to develop.

I'd bring in four new characters to the MK franchise next chronological game:

1. Selphina

Naming characters isn't really my specialty, but I'll give it a shot, it's mainly the story and ideas I'm throwing out here. Selphina would be a female sorceress, which is something the series hasn't seen yet. More naturally talented than either Shang Tsung or Quan Chi, she'd come in seem like a peaceful ally to the realms, but is really setting the stage for her master, a Galactus-type devourer of realms to come in and feast on every soul before moving onto another "cluster." The character design would be sexy, but elegant, and, although it really doesn't matter, I envision her being associated with an aquamarine type colour.

2. Kraoch

The bodyguard to Selphina. A grizzly looking war veteran from another cluster of realms (a concept that would be introduced to get away from the same old characters and threats to "everything"). He'd be built like a brick wall, have long black and a white hair, scars all over his face and body and he'd use Shao Kahn's War Hammer, which he finds in a desert somewhere) to give him a "Thor-like" vibe. He was once the General of whichever realm he comes from, but when Selphina and her dark devourer came, Kraoch, champion to his people, lay down his weapons in order to save the innocents by giving this creature a base from which to operate. He is seen by many to be a traitor, but in his mind he prevented the suffering of his people. He could be a truly complex character.

3. Scythe

I was going to call him "Syrshen," which I may have incorrectly read as a Chinese word for "death" somewhere, but while that is fun to say, it looks kind of weird. Scythe would be my "next level" Baraka. He is a renegade fighting against Selphina, Kraoch and their ruler -- coming to our realm to try and protect us, although at first, we see him as a threat due to his mysterious and hostile nature. He'd wear sleek, head-to-toe armour -- I'm thinking black with regal gold designs. He is a blade-specialist, procuring different sorts of blades from his body for a variety of different moves. Mainly he'd use twin blades that come from his wrists. I know you could just bring Baraka back, but he never really had much of a story. This guy would be fighting to save everything, and would have a mysterious charisma about his European-style presentation.

4. Krystal

Someone has used the name elsewhere here for their own character, but I've just settled on calling this character that, since I think it would fit. Krystal is the daughter of an Edenian rebel who initially resisted Shao Kahn's rule and was always loyal to his realm. Kahn sent the daughter of Jerrod to assassinate Krystal's father, and otherwise squash the rebellion against his tyranny. Krystal never forgot and has since been training with one mission -- avenge her father and those that have been slaughtered by Kitana before she eventually "woke up" to the fact she was a part of the problem. She wouldn't be a villain, so much as a misguided soul who just hates Kitana -- the manifestation of the sins of Kitana's past.

There are my four characters. I could squeeze out "theme" characters, but I feel as if the story is the most important thing with new faces.

A tarkatan rebel, I just can't see this race as a bunch of zombies. There has to be some rebellion going on with them against Kahn. He may have some kind of hair and have a different fighting style from Baraka, like his bones could be used in a different way or perhaps he doesn't use them at all. He could even be half-tarkatan, who knows? Anyway, now that Kahn is defeated I want to see the kind of role Tarkata will play, and how this character would respond as well.

With Liu Kang betrayed by Raiden, there would be a call for a new Champion to defeat the Netherrealm threat. It would be refreshing to see a hero that isn't human and doesn't look human. Living in Outworld he could also be trained by Bo Rai Cho and could be more outspoken than Liu.

AZALEA

AZALEA'S COSTUME & ALTERNATE:
Azalea can wear a long white flowing silk fabric like robe with long extended sleeves motioning into a flowery ribbon like motion when she sways her arms. She could also wear a moderate sized silk sash with the ribbons hanging down in the front of her attire. She would also be accented with long flowing dress resembling a sun dress down to the ankles or a hakama in white. The robe can be decorated with flower heads and pedals across her garment as well. Finally, she can wear a pair of sandals on her feet. Her alternate can be either a majority pink or a majority green colored robe with long extended sleeves motioning into a flowery ribbon like motion when she sways her arms back and forth. She could also wear a moderate sized silk sash with the ribbons hanging down in the front of her attire in either green if her robe is pink or pink if her robe is green. Again her robe can be decorated and litered with flower heads and pedals across her garments. Finally, she could be accented with again a silk flowing flowery sun dress down to her ankles or a hakama matching her robe with a pair of sandals. On both costumes she could also have a flower head in her head dress that would stay in her hair like a hairpin along with a long ribbon tied up around her ponytail swaying in the wind.

AZALEA'S FIGHTING STYLE:
Azalea can have a Wing Chun fighting style with quick yet elegant sophiscated movements. She can flood her opponent with a bunch of flowing and circulartory movements to entrance her opponent like a ballerina but also spring into a bunch of strengthened punches and kicks. She's known to be very elusive luring her opponent's into comprimising positions as well as aggressive in stragetic moments when opportunities present themselves from her opponent.

AZALEA'S BACKSTORY:
Azalea being adored for her beauty growing up was also raised to be thoughtful, kind, positive and outgoing by loving parents who wanted the best for her. While staying busy with herself, friends and family, a situation occured that threatened the makeup of her world. And brought about a world of confusion to herself and friends around her. This would have her summon a means of trying to defend herself, friends and family in the world that she came from. This would cause her to spawn her secret powers of manipulating vegetation and flowers she learned from her mother when she was younger. She would hide her friends and family members from harms way while making preparations upon entering a highly competitive yet aged old tournament consisting of the world's best renown fighters and beyond. Azalea would enter Mortal Kombat as a wild card defending her world from intruders and common enemies.

AZALEA'S SPECIALTY MOVES:
Dandelion - A dandelion plant appears in Azalea's mythically appears in her front side hand. She then blows on the head of the danelion flower blowing the seedlings towards her opponent across the screen. The seedlings can then transform in mid-flight to a series of razor sharp metal spikes, peppering her opponent with a barrage of hits to their upper torso and pushing them into a backwards stumble.

Sunflower Star - From fighting stance, Azalea, can fling her front side arm to backside shoulder and toss the head of a sunflower across the screen at her opponent, to where the pedals form razor sharp metal blades and circulate/grind her opponent's chest before disappearing.

Aerial Sunflower - From fighting stance, Azalea, can leap vertically upwards or into a front/backwards somersault and fling the head of a sunflower across the screen towards her opponent like a ninja star to where the pedals form razor sharp metal blades and circulate/grind on her opponent's chest knocking them out of the air into a free fall backwards on their back.

Descending Sunflower - From fighting stance, Azalea, can leap vertically upwards or into a front/backwards somersault and fling the head of a sunflower diagonally downward towards her footbound opponent like a ninja star to where the pedals form razor sharp metal blades and circulate/grind on her opponent's chest knocking them out into a stumble backwards.

Rising Sunflower - From a crouching disposition on one knee, Azalea, can fling the head of a sunflower diagonally upward towards her airbound opponent, to where the pedals form razor sharp metal blades and circulate/grind her against her opponent's chest before disappearing knocking them out of the air into a free fall backwards on their back.

Cherry Blossom Barrage - From fighting stance, Azalea can jump into a vertical leap with knee extended outward, or into a front/backwards somersault and disappear in a blinking imprint. She then can reappear on her opponent in a piggyback disposition with her arm around their neck. A barrage of leaves then, can wisk and sway quickly towards her opponent while in mid-flight transforming into razor sharp metal leaves peppering her opponent's chest while in the constraints of her arms. She then can execute a backwards somersault off their back while opponent falls to their knees to the floor.

Martha's Vineyard - From fighting stance, Azalea, can motion into a double handed uppercut motion in front of her chest, and give rise to a series of poisonous vines with sharpened thorns sticking out of the vines to sprout out of the ground underneath her opponent's feet. The vines illuminate when wrapping around her opponent's body and then materialize into the green poisonous thorns entrenched vines suffocating her opponent where they stand. She then can fling her backside arm past her waist and cause the vines to scrape and lacerated her opponent cutting their skin in multiple areas before rescending back into the ground.

Toxic Touch - From fighting stance, Azalea can grab and clutch her opponent in a tight knitted bear hug with both arms wrapped around her opponent. Her skin can turn dark green and secreet a series of poisonous enzymes that burns and eats away at her opponent like acid taking off energy. She then can release her hold on her opponent as they drop to their knees in pain. Her skin would then return back to normal.

Autumn's Breeze - From fighting stance, Azalea can cock back her front side arm to backside shoulder and fling her arm towards her opponent. This creates a jet stream of leaves to blow in a lower cased cursive letter "e" motioning across the screen. In mid-flight the leaves transform into razor sharp metal leaves peppering her opponent's upper extremities with a series of cuts and lacerations.

Spring Vineyard - From fighting stance, Azalea, can motion into a double handed uppercut motion in front of her chest, and give rise to a series of poisonous vines with sharpened thorns sticking out of the vines to sprout out of the ground underneath her opponent's feet. The vines illuminate when wrapping around her opponent's body and then materialize into the green poisonous thorns entrenched vines propelling her opponent across the screen towards Azalea in a stumbling motion for a possible hand based combos before rescending into the ground.

Broken Branch - From fighting stance, Azalea, can cock back her arm to backside shoulder as a moderate sized branch could appear in her hand. She could then fling the branch at her opponent like a frisbee and as it circulates across the screen, the branch can transform into a sizable tree trunk such as a Red Oak tree trunk in a forest, colliding on her opponent's chest and sending them into a free fall backwards on their back face up before disappearing.

Vineyard's Garden - From fighting stance, Azalea, can motion into a double handed uppercut motion in front of her chest, and give rise to a series of poisonous vines with sharpened thorns sticking out of the vines to sprout out of the ground underneath her opponent's feet. The vines illuminate when wrapping around her opponent's body and then materialize into the green poisonous thorns entrenched vines suffocating her opponent where they stand. Azalea, can then race forward towards her disabled opponent and execute a string of hand/kicking based combos while trapped into the poisonous vines. The vines would then disappear as her opponent gets knocked into a stumble backwards.

Venus Fly Trap - From a crouching disposition on one knee, Azalea, can fling her intersecting arms back past her waist and sprout a series of knee high Venus fly trap plants along the ground. They can look like minature versions of that talking "Little Shops of Horror" plant. Once touched or stepped on, they lock on the opponent's foot like a rockwiler's bite, locking her opponent in place and taking off energy from their energy bar. She also can follow up with hand/kicking based combos while her opponent is disabled.

AZALEA'S INTRO:
She simply prances towards her opponent circulating and spinning around like dancing ballerina in an open pasture, and with each step you see grass, flowers and butterflies appear beneath and around her feet before diappearing. She extends her hand and states her opponent, "And who are you supposed to be?" in a inquistive tone of voice.

AZALEA'S MID-MATCH TAUNT:
She backs herself causiously back towards her position on stage and states, "Humph, you're beneath me!!!!"

AZALEA'S WINNING POSE:
Smiles, reaches back to her backside hip and flings a bunch of flowers towards the camera and bows respectfully. It can look like a musical composer or a musican who gets flowers and panties thrown at them after a performance except she'd be the one thrown the flowers.

AZALEA'S X-RAY:


AZALEA'S FINISHING MOVE:
Suffocation - Azalea walks over to her disoriented opponent as the backdrop fades to black. She then grabs her opponent into a tight knitted bear hug and suffocates them in her grappling choke hold with her arm around their neck. Her skin flickers back and forth from darke green to normal, secreeting a series of poisonous enzymes that continually eats away at her opponent's skin as they scramble to free themselves from her grasp. Eventually after several seconds, the enzymes eats away her opponent's skin down to the bone leaving nothing but a rotten skelton and steam vapors drifting off the corpse. She turns the camera and strikes her winning pose.

AZALEA'S ENDSTORY:
