If she were to return I would like her to have most of her moves she had in UMK3/MKT redone in 3-D of course. Also I would like to she her inpale-N-shake fatality from UMK3/MK3 in MK: D redone in 3-D glory.

The "speed phase" and "double jade fury" moves are excellent although I personally don't care for her to be in the game. Well thought out moves though.

For all the prisoners I'd like to see them (if unlockable) having a cuff and chain stuck to one of their hands that they can use to belt their opponents with.

Yes, I agree, that fatality would be Awesome redone in 3D, any new Special moves you'd like to see for her though? As there are 5-6 per character She would need some more added to her original arsenal.

First: Thanks for the compliments on my moves, it's appreciated.

Second: LMAO, I love your idea that sound great!

That speed phase mode would have serious game breaking potential.

On the other hand, she would be very hard to control at such high speeds.

You think so? hmmm, perhaps if the time the move were in effect was diminished from 8 seconds to maybe 5 seconds and maybe only 3% faster? And only able to be used 1 time per round? Also what about the thread topic? What moves would you create/like to see for Jade if unlockable?

i don't really care for jade rain makes a hell of alot more sense

I like the super speed moves. It might make the gameplay a little unfair but its still cool. I would like to see a green shield that appears for a split sec. Any enemy that attacks can be temp. stunned.

I'd like to see Jade get multi-throws, like a series of German Suplexes.

It's been so long since I played as her in UMK3 I can't remember if she had a projectile or not.

Nice idea. I tried to make that move as fair as I could, as you can see I reduced the speed and the time allowed, made it so you can only use it once per round, and she also CANNOT use any of her other specials while in Speed Phase. Thanks for liking the move.

That's a nice idea. And yes she did have a projectile in the form of her energy boomerangs.

How do you figure that? Jade is a great character, one of MK's first secret dudes. Rain was a joke devised to make people insert more tokens into UMK3 arcade machines, that got later transformed into a (shabby) character.

Anyways, I was thinking, for Jade's energy boomerang, what if they kept the three variations with button commands, but altered it for 3-D:

Say Square for the standard one, then quickly:

Hit Triangle to make it twirl left

Hit X to make it twirl right

Hit circle to make it bounce along the ground

And possibly, a seperate command that would make it angle back so she can catch it, also controlled by three buttons for initial direction.

Excellent moves, TomTaz. The funny thing is, I know exactly why you made this thread!

Btw - the staff is telekinteic. It is not known whether she can control it telepathically. And it is the staff which allows Jade to summon the boomerangs.

As for moves:

Staff Shield: Jade stwirls the staff at high speeds and this creates a temporary shield for her. Deflects projectiles.

Surfer: Jade surfs on top of the staff. You get to direct her. And you can jump over the enemy and attack from behind or jump away and have the staff strike them from in front or even throw boomerangs whilst on the staff.


I'll probably have more another time.

I found my old thread about Jade... See the next post to see my ideas:

Looks:
Jade will return as a tan-skinned Edenian. MK needs a dark female to balance out Jax, and Jade is perfect for that. Also, I want her hair to be chestnut-coloured, like she had in MK2! I really liked that colour and then she won't have the same colour as the other ninja-girls.
Her hair-do is tons of small plaits (Alicia Keys inspired), with green pearls in the ends and a few green feathers in one or two of the plaits.
Her eyes would also be green.

Outfits:
Her original outfit would be light-green and her alternate outfit would be darker, like Reptiles!
She could have a ninja-outfit, with mask as her alternate outfit, but her original outfit should be different. Maybe more amazonic/jungle like, or maybe a bit hawaiian style outfit, but of course fit for fighting in it.

Weapon:
I would like for her to have her staff, given to her by Shao Kahn. But this staff is different from Raidens wooden staff.
Jade's is kinetic and only appears when she moves it, so at first it looks like she doesn't have any weapon in hand. When she doesn't use it, it would be invisible or atleast transparent.

Special Moves:
- Boomerang: Her staff has the ability to emerge boomerangs out of it, and so she'll throw them at the opponent. This will be her projectile move!
- Projectile Invulnerability: Of course they should find a shorter name for this move, but as it says, this move will make Jade become invulnerable to projectiles for 3-5 seconds. She will become ghost-like/transparent in the process and not being able to use other special moves.
- Flik Flak: GOD, I just LOVE this move. For those who knows the game Killer Instinct knows, that the femme fatale of the game, Orchid, has a move, where she stands on her hands and spins 360 degrees kicking the opponent. And I would love to see Jade do the same thing, just her own version.
- Somersault Kick: This is another cool kick. She jumps into the air, spinning backwards and kicks her opponent. Kinda like Cage can in MKDA, but this would be stronger and a green trail will follow her kick, also like Cage's Shadow Kick!
- Whirlwind Toss: In the MK Card Game, Jade had this move. She creates a force field in front of her and if it connects with the opponent, she'll hurl them into the air behind her. If it doesn't connect, it'll disappear right away.

Fighting Styles:
Well, I'm not really into all the different fighting styles this world has. But they should be quick and cat-like. Panther, Tiger and styles like those would be what Jade should have! Or somekind of Ninjutsu, like Mugen Tenshin or Hajinmon (Dead or Alive inspired).

Fatalities:
- Brutality: I've always thought, that Jade should have a brutal fatality, where she just beats the crap out of the opponent. She would switch between her fighting styles, also using her weapon, and just kick the opponents ass to Hell! The opponent shouldn't explode, but just lay on the ground and bleed when Jade is finished with him/her.
- Boomerang Cut: OK, not the coolest fatality-name, but this is how it would look like. Jade swings her staff and out of it boomerangs will fly into the opponent and get stuck in him/her. A bit like Mileena's Sai fatality and Reiko's Shuriken fatality in MK Gold. Again the opponent will lay and bleed to death.
- Boomerang Cut (2nd version): Jade swings her staff, hurling the opponent into the air. She'll keep on swinging her staff and boomerangs will fly out of it, hitting the opponent and get stuck in him/her, like in the first version. The opponent will finally fall, but Jade stands below and stabs the opponent with her staff. She throws the opponent to the ground and stands victorious.

Storyline:
Well, we haven't seen Jade or heard from her since she and Kitana fleed from Shao Kahn's grasp in MKT. But what happened since?
Some says she died, others say she became an Edenian along with Rain. But then again, others say that Rain also died...

I believe, she stayed with Kitana and joined her in the war alongside the Shokans, Goro's race.
But she never got to fight the Deadly Alliance. My theory is, that Shao Kahn caught her an kept her in the palace dungeon. Jade was once one of Kahn's best fighters and he wanted it to be that way once again. But he was killed before she decided anything. And so she got free from his imprisonment some time after and got back to Edenia after the defeat of the Deadly Alliance.
But now she's back and ready to fight again, this time against the new threat: The Dragon King!

Great ideas here.

I love the idea of enhanced speed and the transparent Projectile Invincibility.

I don't care if the staff is telekinetic/kinetic but I do want it to look like carved jade.

Her boomerangs should be green (not purple) and I like the idea of them going left and right.

I would personall like her to get her Brass Fans back. I think of Jade as a weapon mistress and the fans are a nice nod to her origins. She doesn't get Kitana's fan lift; she may get her own variation of a fan lift.

I like the Glow kick but it should be fiery not smokey.

Jaded Raven: I remember reading these ideas before and they are all great. The Flik-Flak would neeed to be distinct from Orchids however! Although I said that before too. Great ideas dude!

Well, Jade's staff isn't a REAL staff, but an energy force formed into a weapon... It can emerge boomerangs at command. That's why it is purple.

And I think Jade having Steel/Brass Fans is a cool idea, but her moves including them should not look like anything Kitana has!!!

Maybe give her a third, new weapon instead?
Could be an idea to do so...

Wow, fantastic ideas guys! All of you.

Tgrant: :P I know you know why I started this lol And though you are right that it is not known whether or not she has telepathic control, I'm gonna assume that it is, because I like the idea that she has complete physical and mental control of the staff. I mean she has to have some kind of mental command over it to form it right? So while you are correct (know it all! :P) I'm gonna believe that she does for the purpose of my move. So there!! Seriously thanks for the compliments on my moves.

Jaded_Raven: I also remember reading you bio on Jade and I remember thinking it was very good, I don't remember if I replied...If I didn't I'm very sorry.

rain and jade could be generals of edeinia's army so they travel with sindel to save kitana from the dragonkings grasp

I know it's not a 'real' staff; I want it to 'look' like carved jade anyway.

In the Mortal Kombat Kard game, she had a finishing move called Jaded; I think it would be neat if one of her fatalities involved turning her opponent into a jade statue.
