I was wondering, would it be cool if a new character for Mk6 would be a kid or teen of 12-15 years old?

I mean, it could actually be cool. It would be the first time to play as a little boy or girl or a teenager. He/she (I prefer a he) could have an interesting story, he could come from Earth as a chosen one and everyone would be shocked to actually see a kid of 15 years old fighting a long side people that are more then 10.000 years old to save the world.

It could also be cool if he was evil or something, trick the good guys and stuff like that. What do you think?

I dunno. I feel a bit skeptical about this idea, but perhaps for a new generation of MK, I would probably say yes.

Sure, then Midway will get to be able to have a bad rep for putting a kid in a game that kills people and gets killed. I'm sure Midway would just LOVE that. Oh what a treat it would be.
Who are those two chicks in that icon???

Well, not the age you posted. 16-20 years of age would be cool though.

It takes an idiot to do cool things. That's why it's cool.

Funny...that was one of my ideas for worst character concepts! No offense to the creator of this thread.

I don't think it would be a bad thing, as this would show that anyone could be capable of protecting the Earth, that anyone regardless of age or how young they are could do it.

People have a point about it sending a message with it being a child killing people, but maybe he doesn't have to be that young. 15 might seem a bit fetched, but 18 or 19 is considered an adult.

Also keep in mind that Street Fighter Alpha had Sakura (age I don't know), and Soul Calibur II has Yunsung (age 15), fighting in these games, so it may or may not happen, but you'll never know.

Personally, I'd like a younger fighter, but not too young since it's MK we're talking about here.

it could be a grandmaster or something reincarnated in the body of a teenager- what he lacks in physical strength and reach is made up by flawless technique.

There is a kid in toshinden 3. He fights with a chainsaw smile, and when he wins, can often be heard to say `mother!`. grin

I guess there is a strong point there, about having some 15 year old ripping heads of, but anyway I liked the idea.

Thanxs for all the opinions.

I'm doing fine. Thanks for asking. As for the character himself/herself, it would all depend on what type of character he/she is. If that kid was a ninja, then I would expect that character to use Ninjitsu, Taijitsu, and/or Ninpo.

If he/she was like a Shaolin warrior, then something like Shaolin Fist or Chin-Na would be suit him/her.

But like I said, I think a character of this age should be in a new generation of MK. I did post some ideas about a new Sub-Zero in a thread at the general discussion (the one about the future of MK).

I don't think that it would be a good idea to add a kid of any age in a Mortal Kombat Game. If you thought the media gave MK a hard time before imagine what subjecting a kid to having his spine ripped out would do?

No, I mean we're talking about Mortal Kombat here. Mortal Kombat is serious sh*t. No...no kids. Teens under 18, go away! lol

I don't know about early teens. To me it would be better if your going to have a teen in MK, she or he needs to be like 18 or 19. If else they wouldn't stand a chance against warriors that have way more expericance than them. to me -_-

Keep in mind since the 1st MK they have noted that all Kombatantss have taken years to master there fighting skills that is why most Kombats are like in there mid 20s and older

If a kid were in mk it should only take like one hit for him/her to die.Plus someone who's trained for many many years to lose to a kid?No.Good topic nontheless.
