I made a thread before about how the fighters in Deception should have a intro scene when they arrive at the stage, before they take their fighting stance. Now I thought it could be cool, that when the fighters take their stance, they could say a quick sentence to their opponent. Now these could be character specific, like Scorpion to Sub Zero, or Baraka to Mileena.


And some others could have their own phrases, like Sektor could say what Cyrax said in MKA: "Death is the only way out."


Shang Tsung: "Your soul is mine"


Liu Kang (maybe Kung Lao now): "I am the chosen one."


Shao Kahn: "You'll never win"
-etc. but I think it could just be a minor addition that would be cool-
It wouldn't happen before EVERY fight, actualy very few - so it would not become repetative, and would be exciting the few times it occurs. And it could be turned ON/OFF in the Options menu.

If you have any other character phrases you think would work, or you don't like the idea respond...

It mind be good if the voice play was right on par, but it seems to be copying Soul Calibur 2 a little. But hey I could see it working if they did it right.

I've always wanted them to speak and taunt before the match. I'd also like them to be able to do it during the match. It'd be a great thing to put into the game.

1st, yes the voices have to be realistic - I don't think Raiden sounded very God-like in MKDA's intro.

2nd, I've never played Soul Calibur 2 - do they speak before the match, I know in Tekken 4 they said something (somethin kinda Stooooopid, anyways) Yeah, I agree that the voices should sound God/ninja/sorcerer/beast-like, and not some guy they picked off the street at the last minute.

Yeah, I really like the taunting idea - and it would be great if you could activate it during a match!

Yes in Soul Calibur 2, some characters would say stuff on the versus screen if you pressed a certain button. Some characters just made sounds, like the creatures, but the humans spoke.

I'm not too sure on the speaking.I'm happy with the speaking just in konquest mode. But i think it would be cool when someone is impaled with a weapon like a sword etc..... and they get KO'd. At the begining of the next round before they get up off the ground to start the next round the other fighter should pull their weapon out of the KO'd opponent's body, instead of the weapon just disappearing.

Yeah, I think that would be good, I always thought that was dumb in DA. With Nightwolf's arrows, your character could pull out the arrows themselves and throw them to the ground.

I think they should have the ability to taunt. Like when you can do it in DA during the fighting. You should be able to press your taunt button to taunt the other player. They shouldn't do the whole zoom in on the player and all that crap like all the other crap fighters like tekken or whatever.

I would think this would be a waste of resources. I'd rather have the classic Vs. Screen back in some respect, because at least it gave you a sense of panic before the match started.

Not to mention, the "round modifiers" with the Kombat Kodes lead to some interesting ideas.

Definitely. It would be stupid to NOT include taunts before or during gameplay in Deception.


IMO, voice acting that is unique to each character is 10x more important than superfluous minigames intended to attract kids. Make them fighting/gameplay experience like never before.

I agree, the fighters should be able to speak before a fight. Mortal Kombat has one of the best stories in video gaming and that is what attracts some of the fans. The talking and interaction of the characters in the matches would be very significant to the game's story.

There would be specific and general sayings which varies on which characters are fighting. Say if two characters who are connected to the same storyline they would interact for a brief 10 seconds before the round starts.

Shang Tsung - Well if it isn't the blind man? Ready to die Kenshi?

Kenshi - Sorceror, your days of trickery are over! It is my turn to make you suffer!

The general sayings would just be random sayings to the opponent before a fight.

Sub-Zero - You should have never crossed the Lin Kuei's path!

Cyrax - Target located, set termination to Sub-Zero. (Cyrax's last word would just be the character's name, it has no connections to the story.)

I would like to see it in. Kinda like soul calibur. Gives a more dramatic edge to it. But maybe not only for begin stances, but also for end-stances. Not for every character though, with some I think it's not fitting.

I would like to have the character's in their own unique voices read their bios outloud and before a match give a brief statement.

Also, some finishing statements would be great also...sometime ago a list of possible finishing statements was in the MKDA forum but I can't find it now, but fortuantely I have made a copy of the list...not sure who wrote it, but if you see this make some up for MK:D!

Here's what he wrote:

As a fan of fighting games in general, it's always annoyed me that the Mortal Kombat series has never had any win quotes for its characters.

So I took it upon myself to write my own for Deadly Alliance. Enjoy!

SHANG TSUNG
generic: Are you finished? I wonder if your soul is even worth devouring.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Join your student in death, retch.
vs. Quan Chi: This Alliance is over. Now only I rule!
vs. Scorpion: So you seek Quan Chi? Let us talk...
vs. Kenshi: First I took your sight. Now I take your soul.
vs. Kano: Perhaps now you will learn loyalty.
vs. Kung Lao: Your bloodline will bother me no more.
vs. Drahmin: Stop fooling around and get back to your dungeon!
vs. Raiden: You gave up your status for this?! You truly are pathetic.
vs. Reptile: You were once a great minion. Now you make me sick.

BO RAI CHO
generic: You underestimated me? Why would you do something like that?
vs. Shang Tsung: Bringing me out of retirement was a big mistake on your part.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: No offense, but you stink!
vs. Quan Chi: Not bad for an albino. Ha ha!
vs. Li Mei: Cover up your chest, woman! I hate it when people lack dignity!
vs. Kung Lao: I'm not playing around, boy! Now try again and this time fight like you mean it!
vs. Drahmin: My vomit attack is easy to do when I have you as my opponent. Ha!
vs. Frost: Take a look at that hairdo! Or maybe I just drank too much sake.
vs. Mokap: Excuse me, but why are you covered with eggs?

QUAN CHI
generic: Your puny attacks are nothing to my sorcery, fool.
vs. Shang Tsung: Your services are no longer needed. The Dragon King's army is mine!
vs. Li Mei: Your body almost makes me regret having to remove your soul.
vs. Scorpion: Annoying specter! When will you learn your lesson?
vs. Mavado: That was impressive. Now go and destroy the Special Agent spy for your reward.
vs. Sub-Zero: Even more worthless than your brother. Tell him I send my regards.
vs. Kano: Now that I have your attention, I have matters to discuss about our friend Shang Tsung...
vs. Drahmin: You escaped Hell to find me. Tell me, how does the pain compare to right now?
vs. Raiden: I bet Shinnok wishes he was here to see your demise, Thunder God.

LI MEI
generic: I can't let you win. There is too much on the line.
vs. Quan Chi: I am awarded my freedom now, right?
vs. Johnny Cage: Remove those glasses! I want to make sure there's eye contact.
vs. Sub-Zero: My, it got cold all of the sudden. Hey, what are you looking at?!
vs. Kano: Now I can finally finish you off!
vs. Kitana: P-Princess Kitana? I'm sorry, I had no idea!

SCORPION
generic: Vengeance is my only destiny. Stepping in my way is fatal.

vs. Johnny Cage: Go back to the land of make believe, worm.
vs. Sub-Zero: My apologies. I did not know it was you.
vs. Kung Lao: Revenge on Shang Tsung? I grant you mercy.
vs. Drahmin: Without your friend around, you are nothing.
vs. Frost: You are Sub-Zero's student? You live... this time.
vs. Cyrax: You tried to murder Sub-Zero once before. Now you will pay, Lin Kuei scum!
vs. Moloch: This monster can't contain my unbridled rage.

SONYA BLADE
generic: I don't need a silly handstand to kick your ass!
vs. Shang Tsung: You have no idea how long I've been waiting to thrash you!
vs. Li Mei: Oh, for the love of... It's called a bra! Look into it.
vs. Kenshi: Agent Kenshi, I found you. Any luck in tracking down Cyrax?
vs. Mavado: Who in the hell are you, and how do you know who I am? Answer me!
vs. Johnny Cage: You should thank me. I just let out some air from your fat head.
vs. Kano: I win again. This time I'm going to make sure you pay for your crimes!
vs. Kung Lao: Liu's death is hard on all of us. Don't let it cloud your judgment, okay?
vs. Hsu Hao: Well look who we have here. Too bad I promised Jax I'd let him take care of you.
vs. Frost: You still think you're so great? I'm standing and you're not!
vs. Jax: I love you like a brother, but you seriously talk way too much.
vs. Kitana: Kiss of Death? I need to call a lawyer about this.
vs. Cyrax: It's good to see you're still functioning, Agent Cyrax. Let's go kick some ass and then go home.

KENSHI
generic: The eyes that see can be deceived. You're the one with the handicap.
vs. Shang Tsung: Hello, old man. Long time no see.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Take a bath, slob.
vs. Quan Chi: I think I'll let you live, only so that specter can tear you apart.
vs. Scorpion: You're out to get Quan Chi? Good. Because I want Shang Tsung all to myself.
vs. Sonya: Go find the robot yourself. I have business to take care of.
vs. Mavado: Your mission is to kill me? Go to Hell.
vs. Kung Lao: I don't care about your dead friend. Shang Tsung is mine.
vs. Nitara: Wings? What kind of woman are you?
vs. Drahmin: I may be blind but I can still tell you're hideous.
vs. Hsu Hao: It's your fault I'm stranded here. I should thank you before I slice your head off.
vs. Jax: What are we waiting for? You take care of Hsu Hao and I'll take care of Tsung.
vs. Kitana: You're royalty? Good for you. My ancestors were Warrior Kings. In battle, that's where it counts.
vs. Cyrax: The others are waiting for you. Forget about the bloodsucker.

MAVADO
generic: The emblem of the Red Dragon is the last thing you will ever see.
vs. Shang Tsung: What am I doing? Returning a favor to Quan Chi.
vs. Quan Chi: Enough with these games. Give me Kano. Now!
vs. Scorpion: Out to annihilate Quan Chi? Not on my watch.
vs. Sonya: Should I kill you now or wait until the Red Dragon is supreme?
vs. Kenshi: The spy has been eliminated. The Black Dragon will die shortly.
vs. Sub-Zero: The Lin Kuei? A force of good? I cannot allow that.
vs. Kano: Your life is over, you cancer! The Black Dragon is now a disgusting memory!
vs. Nitara: Looks like somebody needs their wings clipped.
vs. Hsu Hao: That is why I'm the leader and you're not. Now listen up. I have orders...
vs. Jax: You should have stayed home, Major Briggs. It would have saved you the wounds.
vs. Kitana: Crying over your dead boyfriend? Be thankful he never lived long enough to meet me.
vs. Raiden: A god? Raiden, you fool. The Red Dragon is more powerful than a mere god.
vs. Moloch: Shang Tsung's secret weapon? Heh. You never even saw me coming.

JOHNNY CAGE
generic: Hey, I'm an actor but even I can't pretend that was hard!
vs. Shang Tsung: Liu was a good guy. He would have let you live. Too bad I'm not Liu.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: I should go to rehab just for fighting you!
vs. Quan Chi: Did I walk into the additions for the next Crow movie?
vs. Li Mei: Ouch! I guess I was a little too rough. Listen, I know this makeup lady who's great...
vs. Scorpion: Johnny Cage triumphs over Scorpion! I love it when life imitates art!
vs. Sonya: Sonya Cage. It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
vs. Kenshi: You hated Gist of My Fist? What are you, blind or something?
vs. Johnny Cage: No thanks. I do my own stunts.
vs. Sub-Zero: I may be out of the loop, but how long have you been this old?
vs. Kung Lao: I know you want to avenge Liu. What makes you think I don't either?
vs. Jax: "Aw yeah"? "That's what I'm talking about"? Jeez, who writes your dialogue?
vs. Raiden: So would you call my performance electric?
vs. Reptile: Johnny Cage vs. Godzilla. I think I'll toss that by marketing.
vs. Mokap: It's cool that you're trying to help, buddy, but why the full costume?
vs. Moloch: Ugly, vicious and carrying a ball and chain. You remind me of my ex-wife.

SUB-ZERO
generic: You can apologize once you thaw out.
vs. Shang Tsung: Your fall marks the new beginning of the Lin Kuei.
vs. Quan Chi: It's your decision: live and face Scorpion or die and face my brother.
vs. Li Mei: I am sorry to hear about your enslavement. The Lin Kuei will set things right, I assure you.
vs. Scorpion: You are on my side? Coming from the man who murdered my brother, that's hard to swallow.
vs. Mavado: Trying to use stealth against a Lin Kuei? How brainless are you?
vs. Frost: Your skills are improving. You may have won if you kept your ego in check.
vs. Kitana: I have to ask: why are you dressed like a ninja anyway?
vs. Raiden: Amazing! This amulet makes my powers rival your own. I swear to keep it from evil.
vs. Reptile: Cold blooded? Not nearly cold enough.
vs. Cyrax: It is good to see your will back. Your return to the Lin Kuei would be appreciated.
vs. Blaze: A man made of flame? I enjoy a fair fight.

KANO
generic: I'm so nice I'll give ya a quick death. 'Cause that's the kinda guy I am.
vs. Shang Tsung: Well how about that? Ya really do have a black heart!

vs. Johnny Cage: Come on, Cage! Say it! Say, "I'll be back!"
vs. Kung Lao: Aw, Liu's dead? That's too bad! I woulda loved carvin' that turkey!
vs. Drahmin: Take that stupid mask off. Oy, put 'er back on! Put 'er back on!

vs. Reptile: Crikey! Look at the size of that croc!
vs. Mokap: And they say I look silly.

KUNG LAO
generic: What, a Shaolin warrior would never fight like this? Consider today my day off.
vs. Shang Tsung: I have lots of talents, Tsung, but granting you mercy isn't one of them.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Don't beat yourself up. You still have years of great fighting left.
vs. Quan Chi: You're to blame for Liu's death. Why don't you wear my hat? ...It looks good on you.
vs. Scorpion: Thanks. Your existence is a reminder that I have to keep my anger in check.
vs. Johnny Cage: Quan Chi is sneaky. I need you to watch my back as I take on Tsung.
vs. Kano: I think you dented my hat!
vs. Kitana: You need to go back to trying to build order. This is my battle.
vs. Raiden: Did I win because I have stronger skills or because I have a cooler hat? You choose.
vs. Mokap: I don't have time for this. Get out of my way, doofus.

NITARA
generic: Me lose? What do you take me for, a succubus?
vs. Shang Tsung: You devour souls? How revolting.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Your blood makes me feel strange. You almost look handsome now...
vs. Scorpion: That was a close one. It's a good thing your weapon isn't wooden.
vs. Kenshi: Away with you! The robot is mine!
vs. Mavado: Say the word and you can be one of us, handsome. Don't and I'll just suck you dry.
vs. Johnny Cage: If it wasn't for your movie Black Belt Dracula, you would be rotting by now.
vs. Sub-Zero: Ugh. Your blood is so cold it gave me a headache.
vs. Frost: I am glad I'm finished with you. My tongue got stuck to your neck.
vs. Jax: Tall, dark and handsome. Mmm... my favorite.
vs. Reptile: Infernal creature! Turning on me was your final mistake!
vs. Cyrax: I'm glad you are working for me. This black blood of yours tastes horrible.
vs. Blaze: I don't care about your problems! I demand you get me that orb this instant!

DRAHMIN
generic: Pain! Pain! I must give you more pain!
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Filthy glutton! Swallow my despair!
vs. Quan Chi: Don't run! I just want to send you home!

vs. Li Mei: If you're looking for sympathy, look elsewhere.
vs. Scorpion: Persistent in fulfilling your task. I like that.
vs. Sonya: Does my betrayal anger you? Tell someone who cares!
vs. Kenshi: The Special Forces Agent! Mavado will be pleased.
vs. Mavado: I await further orders, my leader.
vs. Kano: You are still alive? Not for long.
vs. Jax: So you still found a way into Outworld. It doesn't change a thing.
vs. Raiden: Even you will bow down to Mavado and the Red Dragon, Thunder God.

FROST
generic: You don't look so good. I think you caught my cold.
vs. Quan Chi: You were looking pale so I tanned your hide!
vs. Scorpion: I can't help but wonder how Sifu had so much trouble dealing with you.
vs. Sonya: Nice thong straps. With your age you should probably be wearing granny underwear.
vs. Johnny Cage: I may be cocky, but at least I have skills to back it up.
vs. Sub-Zero: Didn't try your hardest? What a liar!
vs. Nitara: Next time you challenge me, at least come fully dressed.
vs. Hsu Hao: Don't you know? I'm just too cold to hold!
vs. Kitana: There's a new ninja girl in town, Princess.
vs. Raiden: Still think I'm too inexperienced?
vs. Cyrax: Great. My predecessor is a toaster.
vs. Blaze: Well you are flaming, I'll give you that.

JAX BRIGGS
generic: The Strongest Man on Earth with state of the art metal arms! Man, what were you even thinking?!
vs. Shang Tsung: Some magician! You can't even pull my foot out your behind!
vs. Quan Chi: So which one are you: Siegfried or Roy?
vs. Sonya: Girl, you are tough! One of these days you'll be giving me orders.
vs. Kenshi: I don't need to see clear to fracture your rear!
vs. Mavado: So you're Hsu Hao's buddy? Then your ass is most definitely grass!
vs. Johnny Cage: Dude, all I ask is to just get one decent actor to play me, all right?
vs. Sub-Zero: What, I thought you'd like being knocked out cold!
vs. Kano: I got more brains in my left hand than you do in your entire head! Metal too, now that I think about it.
vs. Nitara: You're a vampire? Funny thing, because you suck!
vs. Hsu Hao: Run and hide in another dimension! I still caught your ass, sucka!
vs. Cyrax: Pack your toothbrush, because we're goin' home, man!

KITANA
generic: For my people I will never lose.
vs. Shang Tsung: This kiss is for Liu's soul to feel. But the pain is for you.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Even the heroes of Outworld are nauseating!
vs. Quan Chi: You should have killed me when you had the chance. I don't make mistakes like that.
vs. Li Mei: Sais. I hate sais.
vs. Scorpion: That truly was the ultimate battle.
vs. Sonya: You are a true treasure to our gender. I could use a new general if you are interested.
vs. Kano: This is for Goro, you repulsive fool!
vs. Kung Lao: Be more careful. The Deadly Alliance won't be as merciful.
vs. Nitara: You filthy parasite! How dare you claim that we are alike?
vs. Drahmin: If you want a rematch, at least bathe first.
vs. Jax: Even Goro would commend you on your strength.
vs. Kitana: Another clone? At least this time Shang Tsung got the teeth right.
vs. Reptile: And to think we were once allies.

RAIDEN
generic: Trying to anger a thunder god. I can see thinking is not one of your strong points.
vs. Shang Tsung: You've devoured your last soul, sorcerer.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: You're much stronger than I remember. It seems looks can be deceiving, even to me.
vs. Quan Chi: You've taken over the Netherealm, Edenia and Outworld. But if you think you will ever own Earthrealm, you are sadly mistaken.
vs. Kenshi: I have to admit, I'm somewhat sorry that I never sought out your help during Kahn's invasion.
vs. Johnny Cage: If you quit worrying about your ego and started worrying about my fist, you may have stood a chance.
vs. Sub-Zero: The Lin Kuei and Earthrealm are in good hands with one as noble as you among them.
vs. Kung Lao: If you live solely for revenge, then you will fall into their trap.
vs. Frost: Your sense of hubris seems unhealthy. Keep it up and fate will not smile upon you.
vs. Kitana: I hope you are not too offended. I do not want this fight to be considered an interrealm incident.
vs. Raiden: Strange, he fought just like me. Perhaps Shinnok's death was a farce.
vs. Reptile: I look upon your madness and feel only guilt for my actions.
vs. Cyrax: Ironic, is it not? I defeated you with the help of your own life force.
vs. Mokap: Kurtis Stryker? I thought you had perished!

REPTILE
generic: Fool! I ssssee through your dissssguisssse, sssshapeshifter!
vs. Shang Tsung: Yessss! Now you will pay! Now you will pay dearly!

CYRAX
generic: I'm just full of surprises!
vs. Shang Tsung: I know magic too. I'm going to make your life disappear.
vs. Li Mei: Seems I'm not the only one around here with silicon implants.
vs. Scorpion: Nice costume. Have you been going through my closet?
vs. Sonya: You found me! Let me borrow one of those tonfas so I can sharpen it and give Nitara my letter of resignation.
vs. Kenshi: So you're saying we're both stranded. Great. Just great.
vs. Mavado: Looking for a Special Forces agent? So that means...
vs. Johnny Cage: I want my seven bucks back, Keanu.
vs. Sub-Zero: TERMINATE SUB-ZERO. TERMINATE SUB-ZERO. No, I'm just messing with you. I never thanked you for your reprogramming job.
vs. Kano: Wow, a metal eye. That's so cutting edge. Yawn.
vs. Nitara: I'll help you free your world. But if you back out of our deal, so help me...
vs. Jax: Good old Jax. Always lending a hand.
vs. Reptile: You're not getting away this time, salamander. Now who sent you?!
vs. Cyrax: Sektor...? Did you get a new paint job?
vs. Blaze: So all you do is guard a giant egg? No thanks. I don't like mine hard-boiled.

BLAZE
generic: My fury is your bridge to the afterlife.
vs. Bo Rai Cho: Your blood burns so easily. Strange.
vs. Scorpion: Fighting me with flames? Are you that ignorant?
vs. Sub-Zero: Your ice only annoys me.
vs. Nitara: I cannot allow you to intrude the Egg!
vs. Frost: I'll melt you down, you stupid girl.
vs. Kitana: Fan the flames all you want. You will never stop me.
vs. Reptile: The Egg! It's... It's hatching!
vs. Cyrax: Orb? I know of no orb here.

MOKAP
generic: You can't fake these moves!
vs. Shang Tsung: Foiled by the Mokap Man! I bet you didn't see that coming!
vs. Quan Chi: Escrima? Where are your sticks?
vs. Sonya: I don't suppose you know what the hell I'm doing here?
vs. Kenshi: Hey, look at me when I'm talking to you!
vs. Johnny Cage: Johnny, is that you? What the hell is going on!?
vs. Nitara: How do you put your top on with those wings in the way? No really, this is weirding me out.
vs. Kitana: Great, now I'm being attacked by swimsuit models.
vs. Raiden: Can you please send me home? This isn't funny!
vs. Cyrax: Whoa. Cool props!

MOLOCH
generic: DESTROY!
vs. Shang Tsung: MOLOCH CAN'T BE CONTROLLED! SMASH!
vs. Quan Chi: CRUSH YOU! CRUSH!
vs. Li Mei: DESTROY INNOCENCE!

^You sure put a lot of work into that, LR! Nicely done! Personally I'm neutral about voices and pre-fight taunts. I would rather have the in-game and fatality voices (i.e. screams) perfected first.

I wish I could take the credit, but I found these in the MK:DA forum sometime ago. Liked them so much I saved them, but I forgot who wrote them. If you the guy who wrote them is reading this please log back on and take your credit.

Even though that would take mucho work, that could awesome, but less generic speeches and more character specific ones, the better... also every intro doesn't have to be spoken, maybe like a fighting style demonstration pre-match... or some at the end of the match...
Scorpion-pulls off mask at the end. Of course his face is a skull, he looks like he concentrates for a moment and his skull lights on fire as a demonic yell comes for the victor...
Pre match Ermac- uses telekinesis to fly into the arena from the air and slams onto the ground from the air and takes a chunk out of the ground(of course he would have a green aura around him)

Also since they start out in a non-weapon stance weapon sheathing could be part of the intro... Blind Kenshi has his sword out, he's turned slightly to the side, he senses his opponent and puts his sword into its sheath slowly... at the end of the match he could pull it out and raise it above his head as it glows with power... or do some style demonstration at the of match...

But I think the possibilities could be endless.... later

It would be cool to taunt. It would be even cooler to have a button to do so. It would be great for online play.

No. This isn't Dead or Alive or Tekken. Its Mortal Kombat. Fighting to the Death. No need for pre-round chit-chat.

Plus no matter how good the voice actors are, There will ALWAYS be characters who sound stupid when they talk.

I guess it would be... okay. It is taking alot after Tekken and Soul Caliber. I don't want Mortal Kombat becoming a copy-cat game. It would be cool for some characters like Mileena and Baraka, Sub-Zero and Scorpion, and so on. Only characters that really have a storyline together.

I agree the fighters should speak before matches, but I think these taunts need a sense of humor. With that in mind, I would like to suggest the following:
Scorpion:"Feel the Sting!!"
Blaze:"Burn baby, burn."
Sub-Zero"Curse you,Turtles!"
Mileena/Baraka:"I'm deadly alright, 5 out of 5 dentists agree."
Liu Kang:"You kids wanna see a dead body?"

Just when I thought I was the only one who didn't like this idea. I think it'd be rather lame to hear some characters using any dialog whatsoever.

There are three rules for doing scientific research. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.

Nice digging work Lady R ;).
