Liu Kang is the main character for the first four games and when he is killed off for "dramatic purposes." (Says Johnny Cage's bio. You can tell that's why they killed off Liu Kang in Deadly Alliance) It used to be my assumption that Kung Lao was the main character in Deadly Allinace, but with Deception it seems as though that role falls onto Raiden. I mean Deadly Alliance features Raiden relinquishing his status as Elder God and leads the Earthrealm warriors to fight the Deadly Alliance, in the end only he stands between them as all the others (including Kung Lao) are dead. Then the story of Deadly Alliance ends with Raiden's self sacrifice. So I think Raiden was the main character of Deadly Alliance. Agree?

ProudNintendofan and Hakasha, you are both right. I mean, I suppose it depends on what perspective you take. From the good point of view, Raiden is the main character, from the evil view - the deadly alliance, I mean, the game's even named after them.
Then there is Reptile, not involved in the intro etc. But if you read his konquest, he is the one who kind of gets Shao Kahn killed - by getting distracted by Nitara, not getting back to inform Kahn of Tsung and Quan's plan, and being there to protect him. Then he gets turned into the freakin Dragon King, so he kinda plays a big role too.
It just seems so any people are important, since MKDA has such a good story.
And when playing MKDA I would have agreed that Kung Lao was the main guy, but I guess that would have been too obvious for MKD. Too bad cus he kicked much ass in DA...
One last thing, you said Lao is dead, I dont think so. Many MKD endings show that the earth fighters were just beaten and captured, not killed..

For once, people other than Liu Kang played equaly important roles in defending earthrealms. Other did battles and failed, others did not, just to keep themselves for the upcoming trials in MKD.
