I am really excited that Rain finally made it to MK9; Mileena was always my favorite character and Rain my close second. To have them both in this game is the best thing that could have happened for me. But I would like to see them develop some kind of relationship at some point (I don't mean love, but maybe an alliance that ends up with one betraying the other, or one helping the other obtaining his/her rightful royal status, etc...), and I don't think it has already been discussed, but I think there is much potential as they share a lot of things in common.

Everybody should read Garlador's post before replying, because he explains Rain's background brilliantly. Thanks Garlador.

/see 'The Retcons of Rain'

First off, people see "retcon" as a bad thing. I don't, not if it makes for a better character or opens up better paths for the character to travel down.

That said, Rain's story has become one of the more... complicated... ones throughout the years, but it's also one of the most compelling. I'd like to bring up a few issues, some which may or may not be "retcons", but still things to think about and discuss concerning the new directions taken AND how it affects others besides Rain. Lots of speculation to ensue.

[...........................]
And that's exciting to follow. Because, like his namesake, Rain is unpredictable. He may arrive to provide much needed relief to a struggling people, or he may bring about fear and loss and destruction to a desolate world. He is both life-giver and destroyer, and it'll be interesting to see which path he chooses in the days that follow.


So how would you like to see Mileena and Rain interact if they are ever to meet with each other ?? I'm curious to hear your opinions.

Mileena and Rain, huh?
Hmm, well... they both want the throne of Edenia in the later games. Rain because he thinks it is rightfully his, Mileena because she wants what Kitana has. They could team up, have Tanya tag along and take over Edenia...

... Of course it will end up in the three of them fighting over the throne and then killing one another...

Or how about this! Mileena takes over Outworld after Shao Kahn's death, she then helps Rain take over Edenia and work together as allies? I originally had an idea like this, but with Reiko taking over Outworld and then helping Rain, and in between they made sweet, sweet love... but that's never going to happen in the game, only in my mind. ^^

Mileena and Rain have something in common though... They both hate Kitana. And they both wear purple. And they are both mildly insane in each their way... So yeah, I can definately see some potential with getting these two together.

As lovers? No, never. Mileena has Baraka, the only one fierce enough to keep up with her, and Rain is too vain and narcissistic to be with a flawed clone of Kitana. That's how I see them anyways.

Rain deserves the throne more than Mileena! Mileena has the mentality of a 3 year old

I like this idea thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much. A three way rivalry/alliance between Mileena, Rain, and Tanya would please me greatly.

As for romance... I could really see some kind of twisted romance going on with Mileena and Rain... Like, brutal romance. They conquer the realms while domestically abusing each other and loving it, hehe.

I imagine Mileena taking the throne and driving off anyone who refuses to follower her. Rain then learns he's the son of Argus, makes his own army, and then takes Outworld AND Edenia from Mileena and her Tarkata.

Anyway it's potentially a good idea but I can see Mileena getting the better of Rain in the long run, I say Rain and Tanya should form their alliance again and keep Mileena doing her thing.

Edenian soldiers: "What are you going to do first Queen Mileena?"
Mileena: "First order of business... I want a pony!"

Lol guys! I only see Mileena as more devious because she was actually in the story, thinking about it Rain turned on his own people lol, spose that trumps anything Mileena did in story.

People, please... seriously... stay on topic. Shame on you for leading this thread down an off-topic road! I mean, come on... seriously...

*looks like an angel*

Anyways, I do like what Garlador said in his Rain thread about Rain being a loner. He is only on his own side. so if anything, he would use Mileena's hatred for Kitana to get rid of the two so he can take over the throne for himself.

There is just one little issue about this plot... There is no Edenia at the moment. No one has freed it from Outworld yet. Maybe Rain will be responsible for Edenia's independence this time, perhaps?

IF Mileena gets the throne of Outworld, then Rain might become Mileena's enemy as he tries to free Edenia from Outworld and become its ruler...

Alot can be done with this, actually.

I'm reading all these potentially brilliant plots but in the back of mind I fear that Boon may make the poorer decisions, hopefully not, there is plenty of potential that may go to waste.
I like the idea of Rain standing alone and perhaps fighting to restore Edenia and take his place as ruler wether it be against good or evil.

You can pretty much count on it. Boon will almost certainly make many, many poor decisions. MK has a pretty bad plot.... Not as bad as SC, but still....

hmm, well they are both PURPLE. However, there's another purple-clad female who I think would be a better foil or friend to Rain. I think you all know who, and I think we should pester Boon about how her inclusion would help the Rain story. wink
