Bio:
Amara was born, in Outworld, to Starvos and Laria Lynak. The first 4 yrs of her life were happy and loving. Her parents gave her everything they could, most times sacrificing their own needs to do so. The summer of Amara's 5th birthday, Laria was taken and killed by a group on Nomads. Starvos, beside himself with grief, decided he could not care for Amara properly in his current state of mind. He sent Amara away to live with her aunt Adrianna. Amara was heartbroken at having to leave her father, especially since she had just lost her mother. Added to her troubles, was the fact that she sensed something very wrong in Adrianna soon after meeting her. She seemed overwhelmed with evil vibes from this woman. At the time, Amara had no idea that she had vast psychic ability. Adrianna had acted very nice and sympathetic to Amara's father. However, the moment the door was closed behind him, Adrianna Showed a very different face. Amara was dragged upstairs and locked in a room with another young girl named Kraya. Kraya was very nasty to Amara, and Amara sensed the same evil on her that she did on Adrianna. Kraya was Adrianna's adopted daughter. She was horribly scarred, and very ugly. Amara soon found out that it was Adrianna's intention to switch the girls bodies. She intended to give her daughter the chance at a normal life, where she could be both evil and beautiful. To do this, she had planned on kidnapping a different girl. She was overjoyed, however, when Amara was practically dropped in her lap. Amara was beautiful, with green eyes and red hair. A most fitting body for Kraya, Adrianna thought. The first few tries at the spell were unsuccessful. Adrianna decided that she would need help. She enlisted the aid of her cousin Maya, a moderately powerful sorceress from the east.
Maya, however, sabotaged the spell. As a result, Kraya's body was destroyed and now both personalities resided in the body of Amara. Adrianna was furious at the betrayal and apparent loss of her daughter. She quickly grabbed her husbands Katana off the wall and, in the blink of an eye, Maya's head was rolling across the floor. Believing her daughter gone forever, and not wanted anything to do with Amara, Adrianna sold her to a slave trader. From then on Amara's life was extremely hard and painful. She went from Master to Master, beating to beating. Sometimes when she had been weakened due to beatings, Kraya would become the dominant personality. When this happened, Amara's hair would turn black, and her face would change to that of Kraya - scarred and ugly. Kraya would then proceed to kill the master that had been beating the body she shared. Amara would eventually gather her strength and use her mental power to push Kraya back down. Often, though she was too late.
When she was fifteen, she was bought by a master known as Wei Tao. However, he was not like the rest. He treated her more of a daughter than slave. She eventually grew comfortable enough around him to tell him her full story. He found the fact that she had 2 personalities interesting. He helped her to hone her mental abilities, until they were strong enough to allow her to switch back and forth between personalities easily. After this, he taught her to defend herself. A master of many styles of fighting, he felt that Leopard and Dragon would be ideal for her. For her weapon he chose the Jutte. It was mainly a defensive weapon, and fit her personality nicely. Kraya on the other hand was a different story. Due to her rage, she was not an easy pupil. She did not like being put away, and called forth, like a jack in the box. She thought about the situation, however, and thought it would be best to take advantage of Wai Tao's teachings. Then she would teach the old fool a lesson of her own. Kraya ended up learning the styles Lui He Ba Fa, and Hun Gar. For her weapon she chose the Katana in memory of her father.
All went well for a while after that. There were never any complications. Until the night she saw her father. Starvos was walking through the market while she was picking up supplies. She saw him and immediately dropped everything in her hands. He didnt even notice her, or anybody. The look on his face had such determination that she knew he must be on some mission. She followed him up over the hill that led just outside of town. Then she saw what he had been tracking. It was a group of six nomads! One larger than the others. This is the one she would never forget...Baraka they called him. He was the one that slew her mother. And this time they had a strange woman in pink with them. Her face covered by a veil. She seemed to be his mate. Starvos immediately charged the group. Amara called out to him to stop, but he did not hear her. She rushed down behind him to aid him in his fight. When he saw her fighting beside him he had no idea who she was, but seemed happy for the help. They did well, they killed 5 Nomads together. There was only Baraka and the woman left now. They charged the couple. Amara attempted to take out the female, who she found out was named Mileena, while her father attacked Baraka. Amara fought well but couldn't seem to deal with Mileena's speed. Starvos was not doing any better. Baraka got the upper hand on him quickly. Then while Mileena held Amara, Baraka smiled at her and split her father straight up the middle. He fell in two halves. The shock of seeing her father murdered before her eyes, caused the Amara personality to completely withdraw. Before Mileena's eyes the girl changed physically. Being a more brutal fighter than Amara, and due to surprising her, Kraya was able to defeat Mileena. Baraka not knowing what was going on decided to retreat. He took Mileena and left.
Kraya turned her attention to the dead body of Amara's father. For the first time she felt bad for someone other than herself. This quickly passed however as she realized that Amara was not trying to regain control. Kraya went over to the large chests that were apparently things that Nomads had collected from their victims. Among them she found an outfit that she took a liking too, as well as a Full face mask with a Ying Yang symbol on it. The irony of this did not escape her. Amused, she put it on to cover her scared appearance. Now it was time for her to collect her Katana, and take care of Wei Tao. When she arrived, Tao immediately knew it was not Amara before him. Concerned he asked what happened. Kraya did not answer. Merely attacked him. He fought well, but Kraya fought dirty and eventually got the upper hand. As she was about to kill him, however, Amara pushed herself forward. Not wanting to loose another "father". She helped Tao up, and told him what happened. She decided she was going after Baraka. But she knew that she would likely have to deal with Mileena first. Like it or not she was going to need Kraya's help. She decided to keep the mask that Kraya had found, and would call herself Gemini.
Special Moves:
Migraine: Gemini focuses her psychic enegy into a powerful mindblast that not only damages opponents, but also acts as a powerful knock back move, hurling the opponent across the arena.
Possession: Gemini Takes control of her opponent's mind, and causes them to fall to thier knees, and proceed to slam their head into the ground (Three Slams)
Identity Crisis: Gemini forces the opponent to beilieve that they are another randum fighter in the tournament. (The fighter chosen will always be randum.) The outward appearance won't change, however, the opponent will gain the moves and fighting styles of the randum fighters) This will last until the round ends. This move is a gamble because on the one hand, your opponent could get someone that they really don't know how to play and thus making the match easier for you to win. It takes the opponent's fav fighter (assuming that's who was picked) away from them for a round. On the other hand, it could transform the person into a fighter that they happen to be just as skilled with. Making the match harder for you. Also this move can only be used once per round.
Illusion Confussion: Gemini uses her mental abilities to make the opponent see lifelike illusions of her around them. There will be three Gemini's surrounding the figher, none of them real. This move kind of acts like a stun move, as the character will stumble around taking missing swings at the copies...leaving Gemini free to get an easy hit or combo. This move comes in the form of an energy ball from Gemini's head..so it is blockable if you are quick enough. So that it is not so cheap, and can't be abused.
Kraya Switch: This move allows the player to bring the Kraya persona to the surface. Giving Gemini two new fighting styles: Hun Gar and Lui He Ba Fa (taking away Dragon and Leopard) as well as switching the Juttes for a Katana. *You can only switch once per match. If you switch to Kraya, you are Kraya until the match ends. (both rounds)
Fatalities:
Brain Hemorage: Gemini puts her hands on her head and concentrates. Suddenly the opponet starts to stagger around screaming. Then the screaming get's more intense and the opponent is on their knees holding and shaking their head...and they suddenly stop cold. a second later the opponent's brain explodes blowing off the top half of their head. The body falls to the ground.
Puppet Master: Gemini Takes control of the dizzy opponent, and first makes them tear their own eye's out. Then, as they kneel, makes them punch their hand into their stomach and pull out guts, intestines, organs.etc... The opponent falls over dead.
Hari Kiri: Gemini switches to the Kraya persona and takes out her Katana. She swiftly stabs the blade through the front of her throat, then gives it a quick twist, taking her head off.

Siduu: And as much as I hate you...I thank you for the compliment. And yes, Amara was dealt a very unfair life. hmmm...So I guess there is ONE thing we agree on.
Toxik: Thanks! And Thanks! TheDragonKingakaReptile actually sent this to me. I like it myself. and Cammy owns in s SF.

There's only one problem here: Gemini was already a character in MK: Special Forces. I doubt the four people who played it will mind, though.
Really? I didn't know that. I never picked up SF (turns out that was a good thing) Because I found out they cut Sonya. And I could really care less about Jax, so I had no good reason to buy it.
BTW: If anyone who reads this is interested..ther is a pic of her posted in the Fan Art Forum.

I think the character is great!I really like the story and the moves are also good.The concept drawing looks alittle wierd though,the ying yang face takes some getting used to.
| CMETH Wrote: Very nice and very long. The story was very well thougt out but the part I like the most about this whole thing is right in the beginning. I'm a Gemini, so I really like the fact that she changes in appearance,styles and personality. |
Thanks! Lol..I'm a Gemini too. And actually it was tgrant who helped me name her. He said "how about Gemini?" And I though it was perfect for her.
Siduu: To come up with he story and moves..was total of about a day..but that's only because I kept stopping to think what would come next..and at certain time I had a block..so it took longer. I'm glad you find it ineresting.
Toxik: Yeah..lol..You said that already.

titanwarrior: Thanks. I didn't mean to go on so long..but when I started I couldn't stop. I tried to be as original with her as I could.
Rabid: Thanks man! Yeah..lol..I knew it would take some getting used to...but I like it.
Rabid: Thanks man! Yeah..lol..I knew it would take some getting used to...but I like it.
OH MY GOD!
TomTaz I almost read that bio twice! Dude, it is definitely your best character creation. It is unique and original.
I really enjoyed the Mileena and Baraka fight, and the concept story of both characters is very attractive in this story. And I LOVE the names you have used!!!! Very creative stuff Tom.
I really dont know what to say, I think its the best you have done so far. I feel really sorry for the girl but her story has so much potential in the world of Mk! The way they both ended in the same body was interesting.
Her ending could even lead to suicide!
Amazing job Tom, she reminds me of a comic character of Mortal Kombat called SIANG. They were 2 twins of the order of light, one was Sing, the other Sang, but they could merge and form the one known as Siang.
Your concept story though, is much much better!

Brillaint, absolutely brilliant. I always knew that you had a gift and this just strengthens that observation. I remember when you had a mind block and couldn't think of a character. I told you,"Never down play yourself". I'm glad that you though of a Jekel/Hyde character. I'm very proud. Now it's hard to choose which is my fav. Gabrielle, Gemini, or Ghost. Once again, brilliant.

I love this story and character. You've done a great job. The concept is amazing. Having the character change form both physically and mentally was a unique twist. You have talent and it shows here.
Good job, TomTaz! Your concepts are awesome!
Good job, TomTaz! Your concepts are awesome!
Queve: Thank you! I'm glad you like her so much! You wanna know what the real kicker about this is? She was actually the FIRST character I every created for MK! She was before Tai. I just never posted her!
Smoke: Wow! Thank you Smoke! Your kind words are very much appreciated. I am a fan of your work as well!
Ty:
Thanks Ty...I already knew you loved Amara though!
After all you were the first to see her! And you helped me with cool codename for her in Gemini! Thank you so much.
Btw..you guys should check out her pic at the Fan Art Forum!

*applaudes then whistles* That was a cracker. Good stuff TomTaz. I really liked it.
It sort of blew my one out of the water. Since your one popped up mine has had 0 replies. Here is a link to mine for those interested.

There are some great ideas there TomTaz. I loved her ability to switch between personalities. I also liked her special move identity crisis. The story was much more detailed than mine.

Tomtaz had actually shown me the concept picture of this character before he posted it, I must say its nice to get a story and personality to put to the picture. Storywise, she is an absolutely brilliant character. Depending on the personality she can be good or evil ruining the plans of the good guys or even ruining her own chances of achieving her goal. Move wise she has a lot of interesting specials which would be interesting to see, though the ones where completely different move sets are called upon (ie where she turns into Kraya or makes the opponent think they are a different character) would be INCREDIBLY difficult to implement into the game. Also, because she effectively has five move sets I think she'd not only be unique but a bit overpowered... just my opinion though. I do think it would be cool to see a style branch combo that branches through all five stances, seeing Amara morph into Kraya mid combo would be completely bad ass. Awesome design Tomtaz, I had a few minor criticisms but hey, thats me for you. After all how often have you shown me something that I didn't at least have one criticism of
I will be working on my next character now to satisfactorily compete with yours now that I know what I'm going up against. ITS ON MAN!!!!

How often?...hmmmm...can't recall there ever being a time!
Thanks for the kind words man. I'm glad that you like her design and story. Also...I hear you, as far as the overpowred thing goes, But I have already told you a possible solution I have for that. ANd YES it would be incredible to see Geminia doing a branch combo while continuously morphing between Amara and Kraya! Truly Badass!
And...make you're character..Amara will be waiting, or perhaps it'll be Kraya?
Thanks again man!
