Scorpion

"Scorpion" was the code name of one of the Shirai Ryu's finest
warriors, a ninja assassin named Hanzo Hasashi. It is also known
that his father, a former member of the Shirai Ryu, forbade his son
from joining the clan, as he did not wish his son to live the life of an
assassin. However, Hanzo joined in spite of his father's wishes in
order to provide his wife and son with a comfortable life.



Scorpion was hired by Quan Chi to find a map hidden in the Himalayas.
However, Quan Chi had also requested for the services of Sub-Zero
the elder, who belonged to the rival Lin Kuei clan. The theory of hiring
two ninja was simple, in case one of them failed, the other would
succeed and Quan Chi would be closer to unlocking unknown and
ultimate power. Both Scorpion and Sub-Zero succeeded in getting
to their destination, the two met each other reaching for the same
map they were sent out to acquire.



Because the Shirai-Ryu and the Lin Kuei are natural and fierce enemies,
Sub-Zero and Hanzo fought, with Sub-Zero gaining the upper advantage.
As Hanzo lay on the ground, defeated, he begged and pleaded with
Sub-Zero to spare his life.



Sub-Zero decapitated him and left his body where it fell. Scorpion's
soul would then fall into the pits of the Netherealm itself. Shortly thereafter,
meeting Quan Chi in the netherrealm, Scorpion learned that the Lin Kuei,
following his death, had not only murdered him, but massacred his entire
clan and family. Scorpion becomes a spectre fueled by an undying thirst
for retribution, he vows to kill Sub-Zero.



After the elder Sub-Zero completed his goal of retrieving the amulet,
he was invited to participate in Shang Tsung's tournament of Mortal
Kombat, unknown to the Lin Kuei assassin, Scorpion had been
invited as well.

The two met on Shang Tsung's nethership, at which point Scorpion
grabbed Sub-Zero by the throat and said "You killed me in cold
blood exactly two years ago, to this day, but my demons have
allowed me to avenge my death. I could kill you at this moment,
but I am not a murderer. We will meet at the tournament, and
then, Lin Kuei, you will pay with your life."

While Scorpion and Sub-Zero did not meet during the actual tournament,
they did meet in the closing moments of Mortal Kombat, and true to his
word the hell-spawned spectre fought Sub-Zero in another fight to the
death. Proving to be too strong and powerful for the Lin Kuei warrior,
Scorpion slew his nemesis burning Sub-Zero to a charred skeleton. With
that, Scorpion violently bursts into flames, returning to the Netherealm.



A year later, Scorpion learned of Sub-Zero's plans to compete in
the second tournament. Enraged at the idea that his murderer had
somehow returned and his vengeance was incomplete, Scorpion
followed Sub-Zero into the realm of Outworld, where Shao Kahn
hosted the second tournament.

Scorpion stood in the distance watching one of Sub-Zero's battles,
in which he saw Sub-Zero sparing the life of an opponent. Scorpion
did not understand why the Lin Kuei warrior has grown so merciful.
He later came to the realization that this Sub-Zero was the younger
brother of his murderer, who was sent to complete his brother's
failed mission.



At the time, Scorpion vowed to be this new Sub-zero's guardian in
atonement for killing his older brother. Scorpion was then summoned
back to the damnation of the Netherealm.



When Shao Kahn invaded Earthrealm and unsuccessfully tried to
conquer the Netherealm as well, Scorpion was inadvertently set free,
and began walking the Earth once more. He pledged allegiance to
no one, taking neither friends nor enemies. Shao Khan, however,
recognized Scorpion's warrior skills, and enlisted the ninja in
his militant forces.



Scorpion's allegiance with Shao Khan quickly dissolved when he
discovered that the younger Sub-Zero, whom he had vowed to protect,
was one of Earth's Chosen warriors and a target of Shao Kahn's.
Scorpion turned on Shao Kahn, and sided with the Earthrealm warriors
in their final showdown with the evil emperor. With Shao Khan and his
minions defeated, Earth reverted back to normal, causing Scorpion to
return to the Netherrealm once more.

Several years later, Scorpion was deceived by Quan Chi into believing
that the younger Sub-Zero was indeed involved in the murders of his family and clan. Quan Chi also offered him life in exchange for the spectre's assistance in the war with the Elder Gods, which Scorpion eagerly accepted.



Scorpion eventually caught up with Sub-Zero, and the two began
their final battle; after a long, epic battle, Scorpion emerged the
victor. As Scorpion stood triumphantly over Sub-Zero, the defeated
warrior proclaiming innocence, Quan Chi appeared and revealed
that he had arranged for the killing of the Shirai-Ryu and Scorpion's
family.

Before Scorpion could speak, Quan Chi attempted to send him
back to the Netherrealm. Scorpion grabbed Quan Chi before the
sorcerer could complete his spell, sending them both into the dreaded
realm.



During the years that Quan Chi spent trapped in the fifth plane of
the Netherealm, he would be chased, brutalized, and tortured by
Scorpion. Quan Chi had little chance of escape, as his powers were
weakened while he was in the Netherealm, and Scorpion's power
and strength conversely increased.



Quan Chi eventually struck a deal with the Oni Drahmin and Moloch,
who fought off Scorpion for him. When Quan Chi escaped the
Netherealm through a portal, Scorpion followed him, but the volatile
portal did not send him to the same place. Scorpion arrived in
Outworld continuing to chase Quan Chi in a game of cat-and-mouse.

The hunt for Quan Chi had led Scorpion to the palace of Shang Tsung.
Scorpion entered the palace through a hidden passage. As he made
his way through the lower levels, he was discovered by the two Oni
he had previously encountered while in the Netherrealm. Shang Tsung
had secretly allied with Moloch and Drahmin as a backup defense
against Quan Chi.



Scorpion fought well but was overpowered by Moloch and Drahmin.
Although they could not consume the ninja spectre, they devised
another means for eliminating their foe that would satisfy their cruel
nature. The Oni brought Scorpion before the portal to the Heavens
that Shang Tsung had tapped as a source of limitless souls. The Oni
hurled him into the soulnado



Scorpion, however, managed to escape into the Void before the purity
of the soulnado tore him apart. While in the Void, he met the Elder
Gods, in whom he had never believed, and forever became changed
from what he saw.



Scorpion witnessed Raiden's sacrifice and Onaga's dominance
beginning to unfold. The Elder Gods became aware of his presence
and enhanced his mortal and supernatural abilities, making him their
champion. The Elder Gods gave him a new mission, to seek and
destroy Onaga before he unmade the realms. For the first time in his
life, Scorpion descended from the heavens and back into Outworld,
where his mission began. And this time, the realm’s survival may
depend on his success.



I’ll fill out how exactly he turned on the elder gods once we get
his bio.
