He is interesting, he is something in which had not thought. Shang Tsung can absorb human souls... but, also with demons souls? Shao Kahn, like the own Shang Tsung, Sarenna and Reiko, are demons, but they camouflaged it underneath a human aspect. Perhaps Shang Tsung did not have the power or the ability to steal a demon soul, and for that reason did not take off the soul.
That's an interesting theory. Shang may not be able to absorb demon souls because Kahn may never have taught him how to. Maybe demons cannot absorb the sould of other demons, but couldn't Quan have done something to Kahns soul to trap it or maybe send it to the Netherealm or something?
Wait, how can Kahn/Khan (however the fuck you spell it) be a demon soul? He was an elder god, correct? He fought against Raiden and lost. All that bullshit and so on and so forth. Interesting theory Tgrant. Gotta give you props man. |
Thanks man. As Born-again-vampire said, Kahn is not an Elder God. Youre confusing the film storyline with the game storyline.

Here's an idea! Maybe Shang Tsungs does absorb Shao Kahns but is unable to controll it, and shortly after absorbing it, Shao Kahns soul takes over the body of Shang Tsung. |
It could happen, but without sufficient evidence, we dont really know what happened to Kahns soul. Although, Shang being unable to control Kahns could would be interesting. Kahn could remain and take other his body as you said, or escape to possess someone else.

Zentile? Don't start nothing with me and there won't be anything. I know what I'm saying. Kahn is a powerful Entity. Either His soul can't be taken or he doesn't have a soul. |
Kahn must have a soul of some sort. I believe his can be taken just like anyone elses, but his power and his dark abilities make his soul more powerful than most. Which is why Shang may not be able to take or contain it.

Anothe rthing you should take into consideration is that they havne't showed what happened when they sprang their attack. They only showed his helmet fall off with blood stains. That means something. And The guys over at Midway said what I thought it meant: that we havne't seen the last of the great Emperor |
All of that is why I suggested this theory. They only told of the attack and hinted of what may have happened to Kahn afterwards. If the helmet fell off, Shang and Quan must have known it was Kahn for sure as theyll have seen his face, unless theyd harmed him so badly as the helmet fell off, that they were unable to identify him. Surely Kahn must have been suspicious of both Shang and Quan coming to see him at the same time, especially when before they hadnt ever gotten on together. Kahn may have left a clone, like Quan did in Barakas MKGold ending. If that were the case though, the clone would have disintegrated like Quans did, unless Kahns abilities allow him to make exact clones or realistic ones at least. But if that were the case, hed have created Mileena himself, so thats highly unlikely. The Reiko is Kahn theory could come into play here but we know Reiko is not Kahn! So Im sure Shang and Quan did get Kahn, but we need to know what happened exactly and what happened to Kahns soul. Also notice that they showed Shang taking Kangs soul, but not Kahns. That should get you thinking really.
