And do you really want another Mokap-level character in the game?
Just think... we could have had Kenshi, or Shinnok, or Tanya, or Rain... but we instead get... loincloth and bra girl! Yay.

I don't disagree, but that doesn't seem to be the reason why people are angry. The reactions communicate more that she's tarnishing the reputation of Skarlet than taking up the spot of a better character.
And honestly, people wanted "the secrets" back. This is the price we pay. It's true that that doesn't mean she has to look bad, but it's still to early to judge that.

Hey, I didn't say the design didn't suck. It's very lackluster, I'm not denying that. The fact that Skarlett may finally be appearing in an MK game after 15 years kinda outweighs that for me right now, though.
Worse comes to worse, she'll probably have a 'classic' alt along with the other ladies.
Anyway, for those among you who say that anyone who believes this is Skarlett is reaching, well...you're going to LOVE this.
I was giving her another look when I paid more attention to her crotch.
...Specifically, the cloth over it.
I realized it looked familiar.
Minus the horizontal line, the pattern's very similar to the one on the insignia Ermac wears on his back, and which actually dominates his torso to some extent.
Assuming she really is that fifteen-year old rumor, couldn't you just see NRS affiliating her with Ermac somehow? Two old rumored characters, both clad in red? I don't think it's too far outside the realm of possibility.
I think the insignia is also present on the Soul Stones in MKD's Konquest mode. A possible Netherealm connection?
Booting up MKD to check, also putting the keys into the Mystery Machine, brb.

Sorry, but this to me seems way too much over analyizing something that's most likely going to be an Easter Egg...
Everyone is complaining about the design of this character who supposedly is the 15-year-old rumored Skarlett character, but has she ever had a specific costume to begin with? Or is it just that because Becky Gable had to wear a red lientard for motion capture is where Skarlet's costume came about? Because that's just lame to think that Skarlet was going to exist all becuase Kitana's/Jade's/Mileena's outfit was red in motion capture... So was Sub-Zero's!!!
I think the only one who didn't really have to wear diferent colors were those who were just playing as one character such as Sindel, Sonya, Kahn, Kano... you get the idea.
How is it, that a rumored character, that I've never seen any pictures of in previous games some how makes a comeback into fan's hearts by having a "supposed" appearance as a chained prisoner in a really cool arena, while characters that fans are begging on their knees don't? Such as Tremor. I mean, I don't want that character in, but how does Skarlet make it into an appearance for the game and this character doesn't?
Is there any sense at all? After reading all of these posts, I just still cannot be convinced whatsoever that this character is Skarlet, that this character is going to be "playable," how this character is going to be playable is beyond me when really I have no idea how that can even happen!
Because if that happens, then Tanya will be playable as well as Kira because this would be the second character that appears in the background that will be playable. Because if this so-called character comes into the roster, whether it's really in the roster or as DLC, then that means that all of the other female characters that are in the background should be playable.
Ohmigosh.

LOL that my point. I think this BG is taking place during the storyline and putting the appropriate people back there, remember everything in the story things might change because of Radiens message: ie Tanya Kitana Kira maybe and Skarlett/Sareena.
So much we might be trying to read into that we might just not understand, just like MK fans.
I just hope they don't do that Cyrax shit. where he is stuck in the sand and he is fighting. That pissed me off.

The reason I'd place her in over the likes of Tremor is simply due to the fact that, as a nostalgia-based game, logically they'd try to capitalize on all the old zany rumors that circulated around the time of MK2-UMK3 - incidentally, the rumor predates Becky Gable, it goes back to MKII.
It wouldn't be the first time a rumor was made real; The team has always had their ear to the ground about this stuff. Apart from Ermac appearing in the Warrior Shrine in Shaolin Monks, along with a stone Johnny Cage (dating back to the EGM MK1 hoax), there were also the trees that you could knock enemies into. That was a pretty big one from around that time as well. Hell, I remember one spin on the old Skarlett tale was that you could fight her by knocking an enemy into the tree's mouth, where you'd follow, and fight her inside the tree. Ahh, memories...
They're really trying to capitalize on MK's golden years, and putting one of the longest standing rumored secret characters would sure as hell be a great way to do it. She belongs to that timeframe in a way that Tremor - who has a very large portion of detractors - doesn't. And personally, I've never seen that rumor die out. Every time an MK game comes along, there are usually a few threads devoted to her. Do a google search and you'll find a number of MK Armageddon KAK Skarlett videos. It's always been out there.
And hey, nobody says Tanya and Kira won't be playable. Boon specifically named the former as a DLC candidate.
I'm not really trying to convince anyone of anything here, just putting it out the way I see it. There just seems to be too much effort going into this character for it to be a hoax.

I'm almost positive that all the characters Boon posted as options for DLC are going to become DLC eventually.
I'm still confused as to why anyone still thinks anyone from MKII-UMK3 short of Motaro would be completely left out at all, or wouldn't be DLC at the least. You ask me, that's the best hoax that's been pulled on the community to date.

lol @ people saying it's Kira.
My thoughts about the red female:
-Decent look, needs more added to it..interesting though..must look better in game
-Large breast, skantily clad, heels
-Eyes look undead..looks like white pupils and the rest is red..or she has all white eyes and red eye shadow..not sure
-Design seems too 'done' (for lack of a better word) to be just a background character..
-Fits the description of Skarlett..also could be the first new character in MK9
-Her model is similar to Kitana's in the fact it's not last gen like Kira's (where it looks kinda bad..)
-Noticable differences between her's/Kira's model..the arms in Kira's are muscular, whereas this Red Lady/Kitana's don't look like that.
*The abdomen on Kira kinda sticks out, whereas the Red Lady's/Kitana's is more inward..
Basically:
It's a new model, and she is most likely in the game as a new character..

I don't mind her having a connection with Ermac, as long as SHE herself is not Ermac... that Shermac deal was dumb, please don't ruin Skarlett with this idea... This just got me thinking... maybe Ermac belong to a tribe of Warriors that Shao Kahn slayed long ago... And Skarlet is the sole survior of his clan? Thoughts?

Ermac's souls would belong to a lot of clans and tribes, because he's made out of multiple people.

Maybe it's just a slave girl outfit. I don't get how she is fat. I can see her abs.
I'm assuming she will be one of what I expect to be two secret characters that were once rumored to be in MK. lol. Nimbus Terrifaux. >_<

I really hope that's Kira that's just hooked up like that with a new style, and she keeps there.
Really we watching ANOTHER slut, i'm really sorry to be a female looking at all those slutty sluts in MK...
I hope the new reveiled character in that MIleena video is Stryker, I hope ED boon meant that.
If this slut is a replacement for Rain i'm gonna be even more pissed than I'm already are.

Okay people, let's not get hyped up this is just probrably an earl concept of the alleged Female fighter I doubt that she will even be playable or even look like that all. I agree with all of you, the skimpy outfits is so not MK ,i mean ,they are warriors for god sakes, plus i think people are just digging too deep into the character, we have to remember this is January and we have three months in before April so we should just hold on to our speculations until some decent info on the character is released into the press.
Personally i would perfer the Ruby version of this Skarlett character. I think
the Ruby version would have been better than this version simply because she was different from the other female ninjas. She was the only one not to be from Edenia, I know some of you are saying no non-canon characters and they aren't part of the storyline, but i do remember that Quan Chi made his first appearence on the Cartoon before he was on any games, so it can be done. But my point is that we have to wait and see.
One more thing, you guys have to tone down the language i know some of you are like in your thirties and late twenties and all, but keep in mind we have younger players online here so show some respect will yah

STORY OF SKARLET REVEILED!!!!!!!
Scarlett
Kahn was disappointed with Mileena, she wasn't able to give him some nice BJ like Shang Tsung promised him she would give.
You know, Shao Kahn always had a secret crush on Kitana, and so he ordered Shang Tsung to create mileena to make his preverse fantasy reality, but Mileena horrible misfigured mouth made it impossible to blow him.
Shang Tsungs new project (named skarlet) was a succes however and now Skarlet (another clone from kitana, only made by her virginity blood so the hair turned out red) became Shao's new sexual toy.
Her moves all revolve around sexual moves and toys, she's also the reason the other girls dress like sluts, as Skarlett made them all into her personal whores.
SKARLETS X-RAY (works only on males)
Skarlet grabs the balls of the male characters and makes a perfect piledriver move while holding the balls, of course the males prescious seedholders won't hold all this force and they snap, the male character is penalized in his fight as he becomes very slow and unable to uppercut or use his hands further in combat.

Asking to internet goers to watch their language would be like trying to stop the tide.
And I really don't see how people don't feel that these outfits are part of MK. Do you really feel that MK3's Kitana/Mileena/Jade/Sheeva were dressed at all decently? They all exposed major cleavage and had bare thighs. Obviously they could get away with less back then, especially with digitized actors, they couldn't achieve the "magic" that the rendered characters' clothing has, to stay on their bodies. But come on, even the models they chose were busty and fit. Hell, Sonya was a damn playboy model.
The sexuality in Mortal Kombat has been on a steep incline ever since the first game. It's not something even remotely new.
