After reading up on Rain's origins (was abducted, held captive, possibly tortured). I decided to add chains similar to Liu Kang's. I picture him malnourished, so I made him extra skinny and long. Since it was never mentioned that he was part of the Lin Kuei, similarly as they have done with Reptile and Ermac, I had to find another way to make him wear a purple mask and head piece, so I decided on some purple mummy-wrap with a tattered cloak, which goes perfectly with the ideal of an escaped prisoner, lonely wanderer.

AH! That reminds me, I need to get two new Chinese tops from that place.

Anyhoo... I've seen those yuan yang razors on gungfu.com for years and I'm still hoping they get taken off, cause I've always hated them. >_< Plus, they somewhat resemble Tanya's weapons. Ehhh.... I dunno. Maybe Rain could make em good to use.

I like his hood, and mask.

This seems familiar from some where.

Pretty much what everybody else said, he's far too skinny. The hood I like though, but his weapon needs to change. How about something like a cat claw?

I'll be working on a revision, then.

Ying Yang? Yay/Nay?
Longer cape? Yay/Nay?

How about the chain? My original intention was to have one really long chain on one cuff, and he would use that as a weapon.

The reason I added the yingyang was because I could've sworn I had seen a picture with him wearing one.

So far:

The hood seems like a 'yay.'

The weapon seems like a definate 'nay.'

The skinniness seems to be a 'nay,' but quite honestly, Rain was just a palette swap, and we can't assume that they were all 6'2" and weighing 200 lbs. I thought since he was a prisoner most his life, he would be a little malnourished.

Scorpion and Sub-Zero are bulkier.
Ermac became taller and bulkier.
Reptile became shorter and more slender.
Noob is tall and anorexic himself.

Just wanted to give him more personality, and a separate look then the others.

So with that being said, is a skinny Rain out of the question?

How is Noob anerexic? From his Deception look, he's in great shape for a dead guy.

I was making a point. Nevermind. I'll just bulk Rain up.
