According to Defenders of the Realm, the guy's name was Oniro (he looks a lot different from how the grandmaster looked in MK Mythologies, which came out later). Enjoy!

According to DOTR, Cyrax was white and Smoke looked like a young frank sinatra. So much for accuracy.

Well remember that when that episode came out, the games had never had the Lin Kuei Grandmaster or any of the robo-ninjas in human form. So in some way, the MK cartoons beat them to the punch.

meh. Still, I don't think we can trust MKDOTR for character name accuracy.

EDIT: Oh btw, wasn't he the one who could turn into animals?

Yeah, he could turn into animals.

And I am by NO MEANS saying that the guy's name is Oniro, in the games too. Just pointing out that in DOTR, he looked like this, and was named Oniro, and I documented the spelling that they had.

Oh, ok. It's just that since you said ''according to DOTR, his name is'' rather than ''In DOTR, his name was'', I thought you were using the info from DOTR as canon info.

Khrome = Oniro look alike, or could actually be. Both whitely clothed but it is (probably) not a member of the Lin Kuei though, astonishingly.
