Been wondering this today. Is Sindel good or evil now? I ask this for a few different reasons.
First, the impression I got of her while seeing her in the game left an evil feeling. She seemed like the "witch" type character Boon portrayed her as in MK3 instead of a queen.
Second, she has her scream, fireball, and levitation powers back. Granted, she might not have lost them after the spell was broken after MK3, but they all seem to be "witch-like" inhuman powers. She could just be a "good sorceress", so who knows on that one.
Third, as far as I can tell, her eyes are all white again. Might just be asthetics, but the all white eye thing pretty much symbolized her being possessed by evil in the third one, as in her ending she had her regular eyes back when the spell was broken. Now it looks like she is under a spell again.
Thoughts?

Well, you do have a point there, but something tells me she's good!!! She returned as the queen of Edenia with Kitana after MKT, so she may try to rescue her daughter from the DK!
And her white eyes doesn't have anything to do with it... After MKT Mileena had white eyes, but now they're back to normal... And she's still evil!
I think her white eyes just show that she's a powerful sorceress, like Raiden is a god!
It's just like Storm from X-Men (hehe).
When she uses her powers, her eyes turn white. Maybe Sindel "activates" her powers, when she's in battle, so she's prepared for the worst! And then her eyes turn white!!! Could be an option!

But all in all, I think she on the good guys side!

Not that ending. The arcade and/or playstation ending, where it shows Sindel with the child Kitana. Eh, wish I could find the pic...but I believe in that picture she has her eyes.

I believe she'll be good. Those powers she has will just be the powers that she has always had. Maybe her powers that she got since she is Queen.

She is free of Kahn now so mabe if her ressurection gave her those powers, she'll get to keep them now.

The fact that she looks evil and could be good is great! It's pretty decpetive for the enemies.

I think shes good lol. it used to be so easy to tell who was good or not in MK1 it was mortals against immortals lol. Anyhow I wonder if most of them aren't good maybe Kahns good too if u can play as him.(well I don;t mean good I just mean wants to take DK down or maybe he'll allign with him then turn on him or allign with earth and turn on them now that would be some DECEPTION) Boon said there will be a lot of that giving us the name MKD lol

What I've heard from sources was that they (the MK team) were still debating on her good or evil intention...

They brain-storm the ideas and then the chose the best one...
Time will tell

Hope she's good.

*scratches head* Raiden is immortal and he's a good guy....

Anyways back to the topic, they would need a very good reason for Sindel to be going back to evil. I can think of the Dragon King causing her to lose her memory again being one. Hey, repeating storylines work for Scorpion.

As for the white eyes, I believe its just a sign of someone who has died and returned from the dead. Scorpion has the same, and for some reason Johnny hides his eyes behind sunglasses all the time now so we can't tell in regards to him. Note: Shang had the same white eyes in MK3 wonder what happen to his eyes since? Is he using his shape shifting ability to hide the strangeness of his eye and if so why?

I wonder if it has something to do with the 'immortal' soul. After all the 'good' immortals (Raiden and Fujin) also have all white eyes.

I think the white eyes in MK3 for Sindel were supposed to symbolize the fact that she was under a spell or possessed by evil. I could be wrong, but that's the impression I got. For all I know, before she fights she could go all "Storm" on people and white her eyes out or something lol
But good point Lady on the Shang eye thing. Milleena had the same thing going on. In comic pictures and in MK Gold (all of which some would consider unnofficial in some way) she had white eyes...and now they are back to...well...strange looking, but not white lol. It's probably just aesthetics, but who knows. All I know is that to me, Sindel seems evil again for some reason. Hope I am wrong.

In my opinion, Sindel is EVIL, and will be part of the deception.I hope the MKD plot involves long-time good characters turning evil.
About the mk3 ending, take also notice of the hair stripe. When she turns good, the stripe on her hair is removed, as well as in MKAnnihilation (this film is not cannon, but the fact that the hair recovers its colour its interesting)
But in MKD the stripe is back again.
It is said that in MKD she will fight to rescue Kitana, that has been kidnapped by the DK. But the question is: why kidnapping her if he could kill her?
Once again, I will repeat my theory: The Dragon King is Jerrod and Kitana and Sindel will join him on the evil side.

Sindel is one of my favorite characters, along with Sub-Zero and Sheeva. When I play as my three favorites, I have an idea of what alignment they are (or should be). As I play as Sub-Zero, I feel him being on the good side. A hero. However, when I play as Sheeva and Sindel I picture them being evil. Its just the way those two play, their moves and abilities, I can't imagine playing either of them as good without it taking away from the image of them I've created in my head.
