Talk:List of minor Mortal Kombat characters

message: This article was created to house all of the "minor" Mortal Kombat characters, because most of them are not encyclopedic enough to warrant their own article-- expand this article with only minor characters.  If the character has enough recognition to warrant their own article, but they are still only minor characters, provide a brief summary of the character and a link to their main article.

message: To quote the section on Meat:
"Ed Boon was also heard saying "You can't beat my Meat!""
I think this is highly unlikely. However, as I can't prove it, I'm leaving it alone for someone more knowledgable to deal with. The S 02:48, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, since it's basically redundant info (ie, Boon saying something about Meat at E3), it serves no useful purpose and has been taken out. Virogtheconq 03:22, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Suggest organizing into Ninja, Robot, Joke character, and Nonexistent character sections, and maybe a section for game specific characters (Mythologies, etc).
:Not sure how long the above's been here, but I've just noticed it at any rate.  In my own opinion, I don't think nonexistant characters or "rumour" names for real characters belong here.  Wikipedia's based on fact, not fiction.  There is only one exception I can think to this and that'd be "Nimbus Terrafaux", purely because he was so strongly rumoured.  Even then, he doesn't belong here, stick him in the MK2 trivia section (though I think he is already).  --L T Dangerous 21:31, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually, I think Nimbus should be a footnote in the Trivia of Jax's page (as Red Robin on Ermac's). If you look at the preproduction art () of Jax, it sounds like the description of the same character (albeit Terrafaux being a hoax). The S 18:41, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

message: It has been proven that no Mortal Kombat characters of the names Watchdog, Mirror, or Ryu have ever existed.  Yet, these characters repeatedly appear recreated in the Mortal Kombat pages.  This page is not to spread hoaxes and completely nonsensical rumors.  A Google search of any of the existing characters on this page will result in thousands of sites, yet the three mentioned above produce almost no information.  
Mirror or Mirror Match has constantly been referred to as a GameShark "glitch" within the Gameboy version of Mortal Kombat, yet the term mirror match has been synonymous for two of the same characters fighting each other, often right before the endurance matches.  I have the Gameboy version of Mortal Kombat, and I have never found any pertinent information concerning a Mirror character, as it mentions mirror match in the form that I have stated.  Until real information comes up about this character speculation, I will continue to remove any mentioning of this so-called "character" of Mortal Kombat.  
The character Watchdog has also never been proven to exist.  He is regarded as a "rumored" character for Mortal Kombat II.  Some character rumors have notoriety, but since there is no search engine that provides any information about this so-called "character," the rumor must certainly be a made-up hoax and information pertaining to this hoax will continue to be removed.  
- I've never heard of an actual "Watchdog" character rumor, but I remember hearing the name in conjunction with MKII. The game's audits menu (Which had "Kano Transformations" listed, which is where that rumor comes from) had something called "Watchdogs" on it, likely to goad players to look for something that wasn't there. There's the source of the rumor, if you're interested. Shadaloo 10:23, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I was always under the assumption that Takeda left the Lin Kuei decades/centuries prior to the events of Mortal Kombat, and wasn't the leader of the Shirai Ryu at the time it was destroyed by Quan Chi. Are there any official sources that back this up? Virogtheconq
:To my best knowledge, there isn't anything concrete about times regarding Takeda and the formation of the Shirai Ryu.  If Conquest is taken to be canon, then it happened back in the days of the Great Kung Lao (in which case it would have been centuries ago), but if not, there is no such specification...

message: kochal means koin challenge, it doesnt mean anything else, but i dont get why the smae person still says its a rumor.
Because at one point when MKD first came out and people weren't quite finished with Konquest mode, there were rumours going around that Kochal could have been one of the SU's. Then they found out that it just meant "Koin Challange". It is still worth keeping, because it was a rumor at one point. I think that we should make a seperate article for rumored characters, if one doesn't already exist. Also, please remember to sign your posts with four tildes, so everyone knows who we are talking too. SilentRage 18:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Now that Meat has been revealed to be an actual character to move on to MKA, he should probly be put in the Major MK Characters section. As well as Chameleon whom was also a playable character revealed to be one of Shao Kahn's deadliest warriors. They are also the ONLY playable characters from the MK games that hasn't been listed as major so they should probly be added there. Especially if Khameleon has. But that's just IMO.
: Agreed. The only problem I have, is that you didn't sign your post with four tiles (these: ~), and I don't know if you're apart of the MK Wikiproject, and therefore I don't know if you have any authority on the matter.  SilentRage 04:10, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This is somewhat small, but I feel it needs to be cleared up, nonetheless: I recall hearing information that stated that Ermac's name was an anagram of the word "cream," as in, he is a combination, or cream, if you will, of many warriors' spirits, but the "Kochal" section states his name comes from "ERorr MACro." Which is true?  BishopTutu 21:56, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: His name is most definitely derived from the term "Error Macro" (Some say that it's "Error Machine", but both would lead to the same name). This post sufficiently covers Ermac's origins. MarphyBlack 23:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

text: That's actually further backed up by the pronunciation in the animated series (which came out shortly after Ermac became a real character).  They pronounce the "Er" in "Ermac" like you would when saying "Error", as opposed to how the voice over does in the video games"... Clint 08:26, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Skarlet is a character officially entered into the Mortal Kombat canon in 2011, in the remake called Mortal Kombat (otherwise called MK9).  She had been a rumored character since MK2, when two people playing as Kitana or Mileena would make one appear dressed in red, leading to fans' speculation of a separate character named Skarlet.  (Sub-Zero's Polar Bear Animality in MK3 was similarly incorporated into the game after rumors in MK2, or, rather, false claims from kids who swore to having executed the move in the arcades, even to series creators Ed Boon and John Tobias.)  Her story involves being made from the same Flesh Pits that spawned Mileena, giving Skarlet a body made of blood.

replies: text: Skarlett never existed in any form, not even as a published or known hoax. Unlike Nimbus, who originated in an EGM magazine, or Kochal, who is an actual named entity in Deception, "Skarlett" is an entirely fan-created subject (Indeed, there isn't even a set spelling for her name). Whether she is "popular" is certainly debatable, and certainly a statement that would require a source for citation to prove it. If a search for her name brought you here, then that means that there is a redirect somewhere that should probably be deleted. As for unnamed bosses and enemies being included here, see below.

text: I don't know who removed the Skarlett portion of the article, but if you want to include it, you might want to do it under "Ruby" in the television section.  The name Skarlett was nothing more than a fan-created name for a glitch in a game.  Ruby was an actual (albeit non-canon) red female assassin in the cartoon who was featured in one of the episodes of Defenders of the Realm.  She was probably based on the glitch.

message: Continuing the above discussion, since there have been no objections in the last month, I've gone ahead and applied my big page revision to this article. Characters are now organized in some sort of fashion and sources and references have been added where appropriate (There's certainly a need for more in some areas, but this has been all I've found so far). In order to keep this page under a reasonable size, I've "removed" the information on the non-game characters. However, the information is not really lost as all the characters from various other forms of Mortal Kombat media can (and, in most cases, already are) included in their respective articles (eg. the comic characters are mentioned here, the Defenders of the Realm characters are mentioned here, and so on). The one thing missing is the list of all the minor characters from the novel, as no article on this book currently exists. I would suggest that Mortal Kombat (novel) could be created, but that's for someone else to tackle. MarphyBlack 01:52, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortal_Kombat_vs._DC_Universe
Due to the game "MK vs. DC Universe", the cast and crew of Mortal Kombat has collided with the comic book continuity of the DC Comics Universe.  In a story where many characters on both sides of the universe have randomly gone missing, Mortal Kombat meets Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Lantern, Lex Luthor, Lex Luthor, Deathstroke, Captain Marvel, and Catwoman, and Darkeid.  Unique to the game is Dark Kahn, the fusion of Shao Kahn with Darkseid.
One small rumor is that this may be what people decided to create rather than a Street Fighter vs. Mortal Kombat game.
