Ermac was created by Shao Kahn using the souls of a legion of dead warriors, now thanks to Kenshi, he is free from his creator's grasp. But is he forever tainted? Will the fact that Ermac was created by one of the most evil beings in all of existence prevent him from truly turning good?

If Ermac is created by evil, he should always be evil. That's just how it is.

With the nobility Ermac has demonstrated so far, I seroulsy doubt he is evil. If you look at his basic appearance, I don't think he has the dark aura that he probably would have otherwise. His eyes don't even look evil.

maybe the souls that Ermac is made of were simply the souls of enslaved people.they may not have been evil to begin with but simply fighting on Kahns side due to magic or Kahn threatening to kill their families.

You always speak of Nobility, and in a sense, Ermac is very young and childish. His eyes are just being opened to the world as a free being. But he was created by Evil, and lived his however many year existence (Could be thousands of years, and he could be like, 25). I could see him going either way. What if he decided it was his destiny to be Kahn's sucessor?

Based off his past with Kahn, I'd assume Ermac associates evil with his own oppression. Now that he can choose his own destiny, I doubt he would link himself with such elements again.

But if Kahn created him, wouldn't he pick all evil souls for his makeup? I think that Ermac should be neutral at the least. I won't be disappointed if he is good, but I would like to see him evil.
He was created by evil, to inflict evil, so therefor he should stay evil.

If Kahn has complete control over Ermac, I don't see the reasoning behind using only evil souls. My guess is that he would use the wisest and the most skilled. And I can't say he was ever really evil. No more evil than Li Mei was in MKDA, a slave to a dark cause.

In my opinion, if Kahn isn't dead, which he is rumored not to be, then he should still have control over Ermac. I guess we have to know first, is what the hell Ermac wants, before we know if he is evil or not. Like, what is his purpose? Only time will tell.

no his bio already told...
anyway, looks like midway is converting all the ninjas to the good side now. in the beginning, every ninja was evil, now most of them are good or neutral. only like noob and smoke r left (reptile is IMO becoming good, but right now he's neither evil nor good).

Thank you.
Ermac is Ermac, and he will always be Ermac. As long as he's alive and kicks ass, he's a keeper.
