-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance Konquest FAQ: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= The Konquest Mode featured in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance is a training ground for the individual characters. Konquest starts off with eight (8) introductory missions that pertain to every character. After the introductory missions are completed, the game allows the player to choose an individual character and progress through ten (10) additional missons specific to the character chosen. Each fighter has similar, but somewhat different objectives to complete; they basically entail the character's special moves, and combos, and how to use them effectively. Below I will list each character's individual missions, as well as what they entail, with my pointers along the way. Another bonus for going through the Konquest Mode is that it rewards the player with kurrency to be spent in the Krypt. So not only does it introduce new characters, and how to use them, it also allows for players to purchase koffins in the Krypt. Below are the first eight (8) introductory missions for the Konquest Mode: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 1 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: The path of every warrior has a humble beginning, and the road to one's destiny is long traveled. Each of life's challenges brings you closer to enlightenment. Experience is the path to understanding. By completing these many journeys to come, you will have gained the strength, speed, agility, and wisdom to master a variety of fighting arts. Every step is a victory. How you maneuver in kombat plays as much a part of your strategy as how you punch or kick. Tapping your control pad toward or away from you opponent will guide your movements, as you will see. Directions: Step toward the ninja 3 times. Then, step away from him 3 times. > Tap - Toward, Toward, Toward > Tap - Back, Back, Back Do not assume that offensiveness is always the correct path to victory. A hasty retreat can give you the space you need to plan for your next attack. By quickly tapping twice away from your opponent, you can perform a Backward Dash. Directions: Put distance between you and Scorpion by performing 3 Backward Dashes. > Tap Back - Back, and Back - Back again to complete the mission. Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 2 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: Learn and forget. Make the technique a part of yourself before you move on. Becoming familiar with the fighting styles of the warrior you have chosen to emulate is very important. Know a fighting style like you would know yourself. Let no attribute escape you. Directions: Strike your opponent once with each of these 4 basic attacks to understand their characteristics. >Attack 1 >Attack 2 >Attack 3 >Attack 4 Often you can perform different attacks with the same button by holding one of the Control Pad directions at the same time. For example, pressing 2 while holding Back will execute a different attack than pressing only 2. Directions: Strike Scorpion with each of Sub-Zero's high punch attacks. > 4 > Back - 4 Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 3 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: One wins battles by making no mistakes. Making no mistakes is what establishes the certainty of victory, for it means conquering an enemy that is already defeated. Attacks that are exectured by combining the Control Pad and an attack button will often strike your opponent in different locations. In Sub-Zero's Shotokan fighting style, the 3 button will initiate an attack to his opponent's chest. However, by holding Back and 3, Sub-Zero will attack his opponent's knees. Directions: Strike Scorpion with each of Sub-Zero's high and low attacks. > 2 > Back - 2 A mixture of high and low attacks can overcome the defenses of even the most determind foe. Directions: Strike Scorpion with 2 high attacks and 2 low attacks. > 1 > 2 > Down - 2 > Down - 3 Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 4 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your compactness that of the forest. Letyour plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt. You must learn to let your fighting technique flow from you. Every warrior has the potential to effortlessly link his or her moves into one long attack combination. For example, Sub-Zero can combine his Shotokan attacks 1 and 2 buy pressing the 1 and 2 buttons in rapid succession. Directions: Test your attack combo skills. Execture the short form of Sub-Zero's Shotokan combo called Icy Pain. > 1 - 2 You are indeed a warrior of great skill. You have mastered the technique of combining many attacks into one attack. This knowledge will serve you well on your coming journeys. Directions: Now try the full Icy Pain combo move. > 1 - 2 - 4 Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 5 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: A pacifist cultivates good karma. Defense is just as important as offense in the Art of Mortal Kombat. A true warrior must know when to avoid contact as well as when to strike. A defensive warrior can block an attack by holding Block while his opponent strikes. Directions: You must now attempt to block 5 of Scorpion's strikes. >A timer counts down from 3, and when it reaches 0, Scorpion strikes. Make sure you hold down block when the counter reaches 1, to avoid being hit. Complete this 5 times and move on. Your opponent may attack from above or from below. You must learn to defend from either direction. Directions: Practice what you have learned and block 3 of Scorpion's high attacks. >Same thing as before, but now there is no timer. Scorpion randomly throws punches; just sidestep them, and hold block. Complete this 3 times and move on. Directions: Excellent. Now block 3 low attacks. >Once again, same thing, again with no timer. Scorpion randomly performs a series of trips. Just hold down the Block button, and block 3 of his attacks to complete the mission. Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 6 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: For you to become a true master of Mortal Kombat, you must learn to attack with multiple fighting styles. Every warrior has 3 fighting styles, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Sub-Zero's 3 fighting styles are Shotokan, Dragon, and Kori Blade. It is important to understand the different advantages and disadvantages of each fighting style. By using the Change Fighting Style button, a warrior can instantly switch to another fighting style with a completely different set of attacks and special moves. Depending on the situation, a warrior may choose to switch to a different fighting style to take advantage of its differing attacks. Directions: Cycle through all 3 of Sub-Zero's fighting styles. >Hit the Fighting Style button 3 times. You must now demonstrate your knowledge of multi-style fighting by striking your foe with an attack from each of your fighting styles. Directions: First, you must attack Scorpion with any attack. Then you must switch to the next fighting style and strike with a different attack. Finally, you must switch to your third fighting style, and strike one more time. >Cycle through each style, tapping button 1, to make it easy. Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 7 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: If you desire total victory in Mortal Kombat, you must learn to harness the tools at your disposal. The weapon is an extension of every warrior's soul. Though a weapon may deliver great amounts of damage to one's opponent, wielding a weapon also means taking more damage. Be wary of your health while brandishing a weapon. Directions: Use your Kori Blade to beat your opponent senseless. >Scorpion rushes in with an onslaught of attacks. I found it easy to perform Sub-Zero's 1 - Back - 1 (Bitter Blade) combo with his sword. It does a lot of damage, and before I knew it, Scorpion had lost all his health. Likewise, if your opponent is wielding a weapon, take advantage of his or her increased vulnerability and strike to achieve maximum kombative effectiveness. Directions: Attack Scorpion while he is holding his weapon to exploit his weakened state. He will take the most damage with a weapon in his hand. >Scorpion comes out swinging this time, with high hitting combos involving his sword. Sidestep his attacks and attack him with the 1 - Back - 1 (Bitter Blade) combo again. It should keep him at bay and drain his life to zero. Mission Complete! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Introductory Mission - 8 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Pre-Mission Introduction: A tree sways in the breeze... By mastering the 3D walk, a dexterous warrior can outmaneuver an attacking foe, avoid external barriers, or force an opponent into an obstacle. A useful 3D walk technique is the Evasion. If you timed right, an attacking opponent can be dodged, leaving him or her open for a counter-attack. This method of evasion will require much practice, but once you have mastered it, you will become a most formidable kombatant. Directions: Quickly sidestep Shang Tsung's attack as it approaches. >A counter starting at 3 is once again displayed in the middle of the screen. Wait until the counter reaches 1, and press either Down, Down, or Up, Up to sidestep Tsung's attack. Complete this 3 times and you have completed the introductory missions of Konquest Mode.

From these souls he attains greater strength and ability. It could be said that his fighting skill is the culmination of those he has conquered. We shall see if you can master his fighting ability through practice alone. The history of Shang Tsung's Snake fighting style is hard to trace historically because it is incorporated into so many Chinese fighting systems.

The message was delivered by Reptile. At first, Shang Tsung did not recognize Reptile, for he had morped into something more primal than in years past. Shang Tsung mistook Reptile for an assassin and braced for an attack. Shang Tsung poised himself in the Crane Style stance. Reptile perceived this to be offensive move. A battle ensued.

Shang Tsung emerged from his domicile to find that the sorcerer Quan Chi had just defeated Scorpion in a short but heated battle. Quan Chi explained that the ninja spectre had been lying in wait for Shang Tsung. If Quan Chi had not been there to intervene, Shang Tsung would surely have been attacked by the ninja spectre, Scorpion.

He explained in detail how the two sorcerers could greatly benefit each other if they joined forces. Shang Tsung was no fool. He understood the riskes involved with Quan Chi's proposal. But after some convincing from his fellow sorcerer, he readily agreed. The first act of the Deadly Alliance would be to eliminate Shao Kahn. Shang Tsung made use of Shao Kahn's mandate to return to his fortress as a means to get within striking distance. Directions: An attack Shang Tsung used while he and Quan Chi fought the emperor, Shao Kahn, was his fireball. One variation is the Straight Fire.

Next you must perform Master Bo' Rai Cho's Splitting Bamboo pop- up combo. Directions: Begin... ... NOW! 1. Splitting Bamboo: 2 - 4 - Back - 1 Directions: Now use a Splitting Bamboo pop-up combo and, while Kung Lao is still in the air, strike him again with any attack you wish. >Tap 2 - 4 - Back - 1, and Up - 4 to make it easy. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Jade Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 6: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Poor Kung Lao. He will feel that in the morning. For your next lessons, Bo' Rai Cho's Propel moves, you will use Jax as your sparring partner instead. Master Bo' Rai Cho has 2 special moves in which he hurls his big belly at his opponent for rib-crushing devastation. First, the Belly Bash, Toward - Toward - 4. It is a fast, medium-range attack that Bo' Rai Cho uses to bounce his opponents away from him. Directions: Bounce Jax 3 times with the Belly Bash. 1. Toward - Toward - 4 2. Toward - Toward - 4 3. Toward - Toward - 4 Ha HAAA! I love that move. Jax does not, however. He will not allow you to attemp the Belly Bash again, if he can help it. You must execute 4 more Belly Bashes to complete this lesson. >Dodge Jax's attacks, and when you see an opening, tap Toward - Toward - 4 to Belly Bash him 4 times. That has to be the most fun lesson you have ever learned. I enjoyed just watching you. Let us move on to the next humorous attack, the Flip-Flop, Down - Back - 1. this is a short-range attack that... well... you will see. Directions: Crush Jax with the Flip-Flop attack 3 times. 1. Down - Back - 1 2. Down - Back - 1 3. Down - Back - 1 Like a clown in a circus, is it not? I am beside myself with laughter! Unfortunately, Jax does not think it is so funny. He will punish you this time. Bo' Rai Chos' Flip-Flop attack, Down - Back - 1 should shut him up. Directions: Crush the crybaby 4 times with the Flip-Flop attack to complete this lesson. >Dodge Jax's attacks, and when you see an opening, tap Down - Back - 1 to Flip-Flop him 4 times. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 7: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Jax is quite angry with you and will no longer spar. That is acceptable. There are other warriors willing to assist in your training. The beautiful Princess Kitana will fill in. You next lesson will be to learn Bo' Rai Cho's Ground Stomp, Toward - Back - 3. This move is unblockable and causes damage to those warriors who have their feet planted on the ground. Directions: Attack Kitana with 2 Ground Stomps. 1. Toward - Back - 3 2. Toward - Back - 3 Directions: That was quite fun! Did you see the look on her face? Perform the Ground Stomp 4 more times. >Tap Toward - Back - 3, 4 more times, when Kitana is off her guard. She continues to jump around, so time it just right. Directions: Oh my. Kitana seems annoyed. Perhaps she does not feel the joy that you do when performing this exercise. Convince her that it is all in good fun by executing the Ground Stomp 4 more times successfully. >Kitana will be attacking you this time, so be on the look out for her attacks. Time your move just right, when her feet are planted on the ground. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 8: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Apparently Kitana is more tolerant than Jax was. She will remain to aid you in your training. But I fear that she will regret her decision once she oerans of your next lesson. Master Bo' Rai Cho has never married. The next move that he will show you is the reason why. Most heroes impress the ladies with their kombat skills. Master Bo' Rai Cho repulses them with his. In a vulgar, but most effective maneuver, the young Bo' Rai Cho would vomit on the ground in front of his opponent. If his opponent stepped in the bile, he would slip uncontrollably. This moment of immobility would give Bo' Rai Cho a chance to attack. Directions: Impress Kitana with Bo' Rai Cho's Puke Puddle 3 times. 1. Back - Toward - 2 2. Back - Toward - 2 3. Back - Toward - 2 Directions: That was quite fun, indeed! Did you see the look on her face this time? As expected, she was unamused. Catch her with a Puke Puddle 4 more times. >Attack Kitana with a low hitting combo, then tap Back - Toward - 2 for the Puke Puddle 4 times. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 9: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Kitana has left the building. But Kung Lao has finished his meal and is ready for more endurance training. Your next lesson will encompass learning Style Branch combos. Style Branch combos are like normal combos except that they change fighting styles during the attack. This first test statts in the Drunken Fist fighting style and goes into the Mi Zong fighting style. 1. 2 - 2 - 1 - 1 - CS Directions: Impressive! Now try that same combo but finish it with a Mi Zong attack. 1. Last Call: 2 - 2 - 1 - 1 - CS - 2 - Back - 4 Beautifully done! This next combo starts in Mi Zong and goes into the Jojutsu weapon fighting style. 1. Critical Strike: 2 - 2 - CS Excellent. But this next combo should prove to be quite a challenge. you must first start in the Drunken Fist style, change to the Mi Zong style, then finish in the Jojutsu weapon style. 1. Bottoms Up: 2 - 2 - 1 - 1 - CS - 2 - CS Mission Complete! You earned 250 Ruby Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 10: <<<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Most impressive! You have learned much through your journey. You have mastered many fighting styles and have beaten many opponents. But there is one foe you still need to confront... It is one thing to defeat a foe that does not share your thoughts. It is a completely different situation when confronting a foe that can anticipate your every move. Your final test will be to face a mirror image of Bo' Rai Cho. If you can win 3 out of 5 matches, you will have completed your training. Good Luck. Directions: Win 3 out of 5 matches in a duel to the death. >Bo' Rai Cho is definitely tough to beat, as he has so many immobolizing moves, like his Puke Puddle. Refrain from using this move, as it not only always misses, it leaves you wide open for a beating. Instead focus on some of his longer hit combos, when you see the chance. Use his throw often, and his Jojutsu combos work great as well. Have fun kicking his fat ass. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete. But the road to your destiny is long traveled, and there is always more to learn. You earned 300 Ruby Koins. -=-=-=-=- Quan Chi: -=-=-=-=- >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 1: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: The sorcerer Quan Chi is as vile as they come. His kombat skills come from a great understanding of sorcery, rahter than from actual training or practice. You will not be as fortunate on this journey. You will have to learn the hard way. The first of Quan Chi's styles that you must learn is Tang Soo Do. Tang Soo Do is a relatively modern Korean martial art developed by Hwang Kee. It is a combination of several arts, which Hwang Kee studied during his life. These arts included Soo Bahk Do (Korean), Tae Kyun (Korean), Tang Method (Northern Chinese), and Southern Chinese (unspecified). Scorpion had brutalized Quan Chi while they were both stranded in the 5th plane of the Netherealm. The ninja spectre drew strength from that realm, whereas Quan Chi's sorcery weakened. Quan Chi had to rely on his most basic of attacks to fend off Scorpion's assaults. Directions: Prepare yourself, dark acolyte, for you are about to train in Quan Chi's Tang Soo Do basic attacks. 1. Open Palm: 1 2. Forward Open Palm: 2 3. Front Ball Kick: 3 4. One Knuckle Fist Punch: Back - 4 5. Downward Elbow: Back - 1 Directions: Excellent. Let us move on to Tang Soo Do low attacks. Quan Chi uses these attacks to clode proximity to his opponent. 1. Knee Chop: Down - 1 2. Low Spearhand: Down - 2 3. Low Parallel Punch: Down - 3 4. Sweeping Knife Hook: 4 5. Low Foot Strike: Down - 4 Well done. Quan Chi has a knack for reversing his fortunes. What seems like a devastating blow eventually turns to his advantage. Call it his sorcerer's luck. This dark fortune also applies to his fighting ability. When an opponent strikes, Quan Chi can perform what is called a Reversal to get the upper hand. Directions: Counter 3 attacks from the infidel Scorpion with Quan Chi's Reversal move. >A timer is displayed in the middle of the screen starting at 3. When it reaches 1, hit the SM Button to counter Scorpion's attack. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 2: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Now you understnad the power of dark fortune. It seemed that Quan Chi had been trapped in the Netherealm to be forever tormented by the ninja spectre Scorpion. But fate turned to Quan Chi's favor when two oni, Moloch and Drahmin, presented to him ancient information regarding his amulet. This new information, enscribed on tablets, detailed the amulet's purpose and how to control it. Quan Chi used the information to escape the Netherealm trhough a cloaked Realm Gateway without his Oni companions. Quan Chi emerged in Outworld to find himself inside a large stone structure. He felt his powers returning and used them to decipher the hieroglyphs on a large sarcophagus. He was amazed to discover that he had stumbled upon the tomb of the long-forgotten Dragon King and his undefeatable army. As Quan Chi's magical strength returned, he slowly regained the fighting prowess drained from him during his time in the Netherealm. The fighting style Escrima was one of his first skills to reappear. Directions: Practice Quan Chi's basic Escrima attacks on the Netherealm Oni, Drahmin. 1. Pinasaka: 1 2. Backhand Strike: 2 3. Chest Strike: 3 4. Rising Knee Strike: 4 5. Deadly Palm: Back - 3 6. Straight Fist: Toward - 4 Eeeexcellent! Quan Chi's Escrima style utilizes a pop-up attack called the Lightning Strike. This move allows him to pop his opponent into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Attack Drahmin with the Lightning Strike 3 times. 1. Back - 1 2. Back - 1 3. Back - 1 Directions: Very impressive. Dark One. Now for Quan Chi's Escrima low attacks. 1. Pintok: Down - 1 2. Piercing Elbow: Down - 3 3. Cutting Elbow: Down - 4 The next of Quan Chi's Escrima techniques to return to him was his Neijin. For a short period of time, a Neijin gives Quan Chi extra attacking power to wreak added damage upon his opponents. Directions: Perform a Neijin and strike the fool Oni, Drahmin. >Tap the SM Button, and hit Drahmin with a Green Skull, Down - Back - 1 to make it easy and complete the mission. Make sure to dodge his attacks first. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Ruby Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 3: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Quan Chi had regained enough strength to wield his Double Broadswords. Although this technique was similar to the single broadsword, Quan Chi considered the more advanced use of two weapons to be quite advantageous in kombat. They also proved to be advantageous in freeing himself from the tomb to search for the sorcerer, Shang Tsung. Directions: Practice these Double Broadsword techniques that Quan Chi has used to slay countless infidels foolish enough to oppose him. 1. Piercing Thrust: 1 2. Deceiving Strike: 2 3. Dual Blade Swing: Back - 2 4. 2-Hit Strike: 3 5. Dual Side Slash: 4 Directions: Indeed, your porwess with the swords is undeniable.

Circular Slash: Down - 4 Mission Complete! You earned 150 Gold Koins. Mission - 4: Pre-Mission Introduction: By the time Quan Chi had reached the rumored abode of Shang Tsung, his Special Attacks had regained full strength. And just in time, it would seem, Quan Chi was soon confronted by non other than Scorpion. The imbecile ninja must have somehow escaped the Netherealm trhough the same portal as Quan Chi, but had emerged elsewhere in Outworld. The two adversaries battle furiously, but Quan Chi gained the upper hand when he cast his Skull Fireball at the unsuspecting Scorpion. Quan Chi can focus his Fa Jing into a foul skull spectre and propel it at his opponent. This attack is painful, but it also serves to intimidate the weak-minded. Directions: Destroy Scorpion with 3 Skull Fireballs before time runs out. 1. Down - Back - 1 2. Down - Back - 1 3. Down - Back - 1 Although Quan Chi thought he had defeated Scorpion with his Skull Fireball, the ninja had only been feigning death, and sprung a surprise attack with his spear. Reeling from the pain inflicedted by the Skull Fioreball, the enraged ninja proved to be much more aggressive this time. Directions: Strike Scorpion down with 3 more Skull Fireballs before he defeats you or time runs out. >Complete the move 3 more times, but dodge Scorpion's attacks. He comes out swinging so be careful. He uses his spear alot, so keep your distance and block it. Counter with a Skull Fireball. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 5: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Although Quan Chi had blasted Scorpion with his Skull Fireball multiple times, he finally resorted to his Rising Star Kick, and sent Scorpion flying backward into a moat of acid that surrounded the courtyard. A short time later, Shang Tsung emerged from a doorway to applaud his fellow sorcerer's victory. Shang Tsung had not interfered with their battle, and remained inside his home until the kombat had ceased. Scorpions's demise in the acid bath led Shang Tsung to believe that Quan Chi had defeated Scorpion with a lucky shot. The Special Attack that had sent Scorpion hurling into the acid bath is called the Rising Star Kick. It is a pop-up attack that can also be used to dodge projectiles. Quan Chi tried to propose an alliance with Shang Tsung, but Shang Tsung did not believe that Quan Chi was a worthy ally. Show Shang Tsung the Rising Star special move that Quan Chi used to defeat Scorpion. Directions: Perform the Rising Star 3 times. 1. Down - Back - 4 2. Down - Back - 4 3. Down - Back - 4 Shang Tsung believes that the Rising Star kick is indeed fast enough to hit an average warrior, but he laughs at the idea that it defeat an aggressive opponent such as the ninja specre, Scorpion. Show the infidel that you are a warrior worthy of a Deadly Alliance. Directions: Kick Shang Tsung 3 times with the Rising Star before he defeats you or time runs out. >Dodge Tsung's initial attacks, sidestep, and hit him with the Rising Star. Complete this 3 times and move on. You can also hit him once, and in mid-air hit him 2 more times to make it easier. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 6: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Shang Tsung was impressed with Quan Chi's fighting abilities and agreed to listen to his proposal for an alliance between the two sorcerers. Quan Chi began my explaining that he could provide an endless supply of souls for Shang Tsung to consume in return for Shang Tsung's assistance in reviving the Dragon King's undefeatable army. Their combined efforts would achieve immortality, and Quan Chi would obtain military power. Just as Shang Tsung and Quan Chi will combine their efforts to become a stronger power, you must now learn to combine your moves to create more powerful attacks. Directions: Practice these Tang Soo Do combos before time runs out. 1. Face Breaker: 2 - 2 2. Path Maker: 3 - 3 3. Nightfall: Back - 1 - 4 4.

You earned 200 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 7: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Quan Chi had discovered that the amulet he stole from the Elder God, Shinnok, was in fact a key to manipulate inter-realm portals. Quan Chi pledged to unlock a portal to The Heavens to allow Shang Tsung to feed from the limitless souls of that realm. In return, Shang Tsung agreed to transplant the souls of defeated warriors into the mummified remains of the Dragon King's army. With a handshake to seal the unholy pact, the Deadly Alliance was formed. Directions: Quan Chi can also combine attacks in the Escrima fighting style. Practice these Escrima combos before times runs out. 1. Double Pinasaka: 1 - 1 2. Rushing Knee: 4 - 4 Directions: Most impressive! You will serve the Deadly Alliance well.

Directions: Make Raiden bleed 50 pints of blood before he defeats your or time runs out. >Basically what you have to do is attack Raiden until he bleeds the specified amount. I always use the character's weapon on these trials, because they cause the most blood to flow. Block Raiden's attacks, and hit him with the Doom Blade combo, 3 - 4 to finish Raiden quickly. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 9: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: In order for their plans of realm domination to take root, Quan Chi and Shang Tsung needed to eliminate the only two beings capable of stopping them. The first was the Emperor of Outworld, Shao Kahn. Shao Kahn had been weakened by his defeat during the Earthrealm invasion, and Princess Kitana's military forces were causing an incredible strain on his remaining power. Under the pretense that they would aid the failing Emperor, they gained entrance to his throne room and sprung their attack. In a spectacular battle of brute stength and magic, Shao Kahn was defeated. Now, dark acolyte, you msut learn to combine Quan Chi's fighting styles into longer, more power attack combinations. Directions: Begin with this combo that starts with the Tang Soo Do fighting style and changes into the Escrima fighting style. 1. 1 - 1 - 2 - 3 - CS Directions: Well done! Now you must expand upong that combo by adding one more strike in the Escrima style. 1. 1 - 1 - 2 - 3 - CS - 4 Most impressive! But to prove once and for all that you are worthy of the Deadly Allinace, you must perfect this next combo that chains all three of Quan Chi's fighting styles into one long combo. Directions: It begins with Tang Soo Do, switches to Escrima, and finishes with the Double Broadsword. 1. Pain Killer: 1 - 1 - 2 - 3 - CS - 4 - CS Mission Complete! You earned 250 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 10: <<<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Most impressive! You have mastered Quan Chi's fighting styles, special moves, and combo attacks! You will be a great asset to Quan Chi and Shang Tsung. But there is one more test you must pass before serving the Deadly Alliance. There is one more for you must confront... After slaying the Emperor, Shan Kahn, Quan Chi and Shang Tsung attempted to travel to Earthrealm by way of a celestial protal known only to sorcerer and deities. Although Quan Chi could reveal the cloaked portal with his amulet, he could not use the artifact to control it. To earn the right to pass, each sorcerer would have to defeat a representation of his greatest adversary. For Quan Chi that challenge came in the form of himself. Directions: Win 3 out of 5 matches in a duel to the death. >Quan Chi is a bit difficult to beat in the beginning, but once you get the hang of his moves, he becomes real simple. He always goes for the Pain Killer combo, which takes off massive damage. Wait for him to attempt it, blocking every attack, and counter with the exact same combo. If he gets far enough away from you Neijin, and use some heavy hitting Tang Soo Do and Double Broadsword combos, and he should be finished. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete. But the road to your destiny is long traveled and there is always more to learn. You earned 300 Gold Koins. -=-=-=- Li Mei: -=-=-=- >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 1: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Although quite young, Li Mei grew up in the presence of martial arts masters and can hold her own in a fight. When Kano's troops invaded her homeland under the banner of the Deadly Alliance, she fought bravely and bested many of Kano's men. She migh have defeated Kano himself had Quan Chi not interfered. Baji Quan is a 500 year old Chinse art meaning Eight Extremities Fist. Primarily a close-range style, Baji Quan uses all eight extremities such as the head, shoulders, elbows, hand, feet, back, hips, and knees.

Now that you have mastered Li Mei's Baji Quan fighting style, you must advance to her second style, Lui He Ba Fa.

Lui He Ba Fa was developed by Chen Tuan, a famous Taoist of the Later Choi or Sun Dynasty, who lived on Mount Hua in Shensi, China. The style was brought to Outworld by the martial arts master Bo' Rai Cho some 200 years ago. The Lui He Ba Fa fighting style is famous for the utilization of one's entire body for spring-like power and movement like a swimming Dragon.

He desired to become the greatest swordsman in the world and slew many great warriors to prove his superiority. You will challenge Master Bo' Rai Cho of Outworld with Kenshi's Katana fighting style so that you may learn to be the best. The Katana is the traditional Japanese long sword used by the Samurai. Modern martial art forms still in existence today are broadly referred to as Kenjutsu, Kendo, and Iaido. Kenshi's technique has both reach and above average speed.

Directions: Practice the Rising Slash on Master Bo' Rai Cho. 1. Rising Slash: 3 Directions: You indeed posses the code of the Bushido. Now you must expand on your pop-up training. Once again, attack Master Bo' Rai Cho with the Rising Slash pop-up and, while he is still in the air, attack him 2 more times with the Rising Slash pop-up. >Tap Button 3, to knock Cho into the air, while suspended, hit that button 3 more times to complete the objective. While using his Katana, Kenshi can perform a Sidestep Swipe (SM). He uses this quick move first to dodge an atack, and then to counter with an attack of his own.

He convinced himself that he should have a sword that refelcted his greatness. Directions: Next, you will learn Kenshi's Tai Chi attack combinations. Utilizing combos will greatly increase the damage done to your opponent. Begin. 1. Empty and Full: 1 - 1 2. Play By Ear: 2 - 2 - 2 - 3 3. Dark Fists: 2 - 2 - 2 - 1 - 1 Directions: Excellent.

The old Chinese man, Song, was in fact the sorcerer Shang Tsung who devoured the souls of the warrior kings that Kenshi had released. Shang Tsung left Kenshi to die in the labyrinth, but the sword he found inside the altar led him out by some other-worldly power. Directions: Raiden is no stranger to Shang Tsung's treachery.

Also, Shadow Uppercut him, and also follow that up with a Forceball. Good luck. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete. But the road to your destiny is long traveled, and there is always more to learn. You earned 300 Gold Koins. -=-=-=-=- Sub-Zero: -=-=-=-=- >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 1: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Sub-Zero has found that the Lin Kuei Dragon Medallion has greatly improved his normal fighting abilities. In addition, it has enhanced his freezing powers in unexpected ways. You must learn Sub-Zero's enhanced styles if you wish to seek enlightenment. The first of Sub-Zero's fighting styles that you will need to master is his Shotokan style. Shotokan is a style of Karate, which has its roots in Okinawa. Historically, Okinawa enjoyed a great trade economy, which exposed the locals to martial arts from many lands. Master Funakoshi Gichin founded Shotokan karate in 1936 Tokyo. It is more linear, and can be a very aggressive and devastating style. Many years ago, Sub-Zero had been hunted by his fellow Lin Kuei, Cyrax for challenging and eventually leaving the clan. Directions: Let us begin the Shotokan high attacks lesson with the cyborg ninja Cyrax. 1. Spear Hand Strike: 1 2. Forward Elbow Strike: Back - 1 3. Sword Hand Strike: 2 4. Rising Thrust Kick: 3 5. Side Snap Kick: Toward - 3 6. Thrust Kick: 4 In a battle with Cyrax, Sub-Zero used an attack called the Mountain Punch. This attack allowed him to pop Cyrax into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Practice the Mountain Punch attack on Cyrax. 1. Mountain Punch: Back - 2 Directions: Try attacking Cyrax with the Mountain Punch and, while he is still in the air, attack him 2 more times with the Mountain Punch. 1. Back - 2, Back - 2, and Back - 2 again, all the while Cyrax is in the air, for the juggle combo. Directions: Excellent. You are learning quickly. Let us move on to the Shotokan low attacks. Let us see how you fare against this cyborg ninja. 1. Lower Knee Strike: Down - 1 2. Lower Dual Punch: Down - 2 3. Low Sweep Kick: Down - 3 4. Low Shin Kick: Back - 4 Very well done. Sub-Zero's Shotokan style also utilizes an Escape move that allows him to quickly put distance between himself and his opponent. Directions: Execute 3 successful Escapes from Cyrax. >Cyrax comes out attacking you. Throw him to put distance between yourself and him, or just from the start, execute the 3 Escapes to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Ruby Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 2: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: You bring honor to Earthrealm. You have successfully proven your mastery of Sub-Zero's Shotokan style. Your next lesson will be to learn anouther of Sub-Zero's martial arts fighting styles, the Dragon style. The Dragon style is a southern Chinese style that imitates the movements of the mythological beast. The main attacking parts of the Dragon are its claws and tail, which are mimicked by the hands and legs of the practitioner. The Dragon is a symbol of power and strength. Like any great structure, fighting skill is built brick by brick. You msut first learn the basics of the Dragon style before continuing further. Directions: Practice these Dragon style attacks on a real- life dragon, Reptile. 1. Back Knuckle Strike: 1 2. Upper Lunge Punch: Back - 1 3. Sun Fist: 2 4. Roundhouse Kick: 3 5. Front Stomp Kick: 4 6. Wheel Turning Kick: Up - 4 7. Uppercut: Down - 2 Sub-Zero's strength has increased greatly since donning the Dragon Medallion.

Back - 2 Directions: Excellent. You are indeed a warrior worthy of the Lin Kuei. Let us move on to the Dragon low attacks. 1. Ducking Dual Claws: Down - 1 2. Mid Claw Swipe: Down - 4 3. Low Claw Strike: Down - 3 By channeling energy from the medallion through his Dragon fighting style, Sub-Zero is able to perfrom a Nejin. A Neijin allows Sub-Zero to increase the power of his attacks for a limited period of time. Directions: Execute a Neijin and strike Reptile with a powered-up attack. >Tap the SM Button and hit Reptile with a Dragon Attack (Back - 2) to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 3: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Excellent! Your training in the art of Dragon is complete! Let us move on to Sub-Zero's weapon style, the Kori Blade. The Dragon Medallion has amplified Sub-Zero's freezing abilities, or Kori, in such a way that he can form complex objects out of solid ice from surrounding water vapor. One such object is his Kori Blade. You must first learn to instantly form a Kori Blade. From there, you will practice Kori Blade basic moves. Directions: Attack the Netherealm Oni Drahmin with these moves. 1. Overhead Swing: 1 2. Spinning Slash: Back - 1 3. Overhead Smash: Up - 1 4. Blade Lunge: 2 5. Low Swipe: Back - 2 Unlike some warriors, Sub-Zero mixes kicks with his weapon attacks. Directions: Perform these Kori Blade kick attacks. 1. Back Kick: 4 2. Sweep Kick: Back - 4 The Stomp Kick is an attack Sub-Zero uses in his Kori Blade style that pops his opponent into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Attack Drahmin with a Stomp Kick to juggle him. Then, while he is still in the air, follow up with any strike from the Kori Blade before he hits the ground. >Tap 3, and then to make it easy, Up - 1, while he is in mid-air, to complete the objective Sub-Zero has the ability to Impale his Kori Blade into an opponent to drain his lifeforce. This is a devastating tactic that can trun a duel to his advantage. Once lodged into an opponent, his blade cannot be removed. Directions: Impale Drahmin with Sub-Zero's Kori Blade. >Tap the SM Button to Imaple Drahmin and complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Jade Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 4: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Now that you have mastered Sub-Zero's main fighting styles, you must learn his special attacks. Sub-Zero has trained many years to hone his natural ability to freeze. This trait has been passed down through many generations of his family line. But with the power of the Dragon Medallion amplifying this ability, his Kori attacks are more powerful than ever. Sub-Zero's Freeze projectile attack has become legendary throughout the realms of Earth and Outworld. It is an excellent means for stopping his opponents in their tracks. Directions: Practice attacking Nitara with 2 Freeze projectile attacks before times runs out. 1. Down - Toward - 1 2. Down - Toward - 1 Vampires are cold-blooded. Nitara will recover. She will be such an easy target this next time. Directions: Execute the Freeze projectile 2 times before Nitara defeats you. >Dodge her attacks, and when you see an opportunity, use the Freeze attack. Do this twice to complete the objective. In addition to the Freeze projectile, Sub-Zero also has a charge attack in his arsenal called the Cold Shoulder. It is a quick dashing attack that knocks your opponent backwards. Directions: Practice the Cold Shoulder against Nitara 2 times before time runs out. 1. Back - Toward - 4 2. Back - Toward - 4 Nice work, but vampires like Nitara can be nimble targets. She will not let you attack her this time. Directions: Execute the Cold Shoulder 2 times before Nitara defeats you. >Try to stay out of her reach, and as she comes in close to attack, let a Cold Shoulder go. Do this twice to complete the objective. Directions: Now try to combine these 2 icy attacks. Freeze Nitara, then follow up with a Cold Shoulder. Execute this 2 times. 1. Down - Toward - 1, Back - Toward - 4 2. Down - Toward - 1, Back - Toward - 4 >She attacks this time, so be careful. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 5: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Excellent! You have mastered Sub-Zero's classic Freeze projectile attack. But to become Lin Kuei, you have much more to learn. An interesting new attack the medallion has unlocked for Sub-Zero is his Ice Shaker attack. Both offensive and defensive, this attack surrounds him with a super-chilled barrier that flash-freezes any opponent within range. Many years ago, Sub-Zero's brother was manipulated by the sorcerer Quan Chi to retrieve for him an amulet from it's hiding place in Eearthrealm. The sorcerer later framed Sub-Zero's brother for the death of Scorpion's family and clan, which led to his demise at the hands of the enraged ninja spectre, Scorpion. Quan Chi has much to answer for. Freeze him using Sub- Zero's Ice Shaker 3 times before times runs out. 1. Back - Down - 2 2. Back - Down - 2 3. Back - Down - 2 Well done. However, it was not enough to chill Quan Chi's already-cold heart. This time, he will not allow you the satisfaction of revenge. Directions: Freeze Quan Chi with Sub-Zero's Ice Shaker attack 3 times before time runs out. >Dodge Quan Chi' attacks, or sidestep them, then go for the Ice Shaker move. Complete this 3 times to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 6: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Very well done. Now you must learn attack combinations. Utilizing combos will greatly increase the damage done to your opponent. Scorpion has hunted Sub-Zero for years. He believed that Sub-Zero murdered his family and clan. Now he believes Quan Chi to be the true murderer, and will not harm Sub-Zero. Directions: Practice these Shotokan combos on Scorpion before you face your real opponent. 1. 2 Hit Trick: 3 - 2 2. Peaceful Mind: 3 - Back - 2 3. King's Crown: 3 - Toward - 3 Directions: Well done! Let us see how you fare with some more complicated combos... 1. Peaceful Mind: 3 - Back - 2 2. King's Crown: 3 - Toward - 3 3. Iron Horse: 1 - 2 - Back - 2 4. Icy Pain: 1 - 2 - 4 5. Cloud Hands: 1 - 2 - Back - 1 Mission Complete! You earned 200 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 7: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Excellent! Now you must expand your training by mastering a few combos from another style. These next Dragon combo lessons will work similarly to the Shotokan combo lessons. At one time, the Red Dragon clan would have been considered a potential ally of the Lin Kuei. But not that Sub-Zero has transformed the Lin Kuei into a force for good, the Red Dragon will pose a great threat. Directions: Practice these Dragon style combos on the Red Dragon infiltrator, Hsu Hao. 1. Yielding Fire: 1 - 3 2. Dragon Dance: 1 - Back - 1 3. Icy Pop: 1 - 1 - 2 Directions: Well done! Let us see how you fare with some omre resistance, and a few more complicated combos. 1. Dragon Dance: 1 - Back - 1 2. Silent Dragon: 1 - 2 - 3 3. Twist of Tiger: 1 - 2 - Up - 4 4. 3 Hit Claws: 1 - 2 - Back - 2 5. Dragon Pays With 7 Stars: 1 - 2 - 4 >Hsu Hao will now be out and about, potentially ready to attack you. Block his move, or sidestep it, and perform the above combos to complete the objective. Hsu Hao is a powerful adversary. Apparently, those attacks did not intimidate him. Directions: Use these Kori Blade combos to prove that the Lin Kuei are a force to be reckoned with. 1. Bitter Blade: 1 - Back - 1 2. Cut Up: 4 - 4 >Once again, Hsu Hao is out and about to kill you. You only have 1 life bar to perform all these comobs on, so be careful, and don't let him get too close. Perform the above combos to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 8: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Indeed you are most fortunate. You will now have the honor of participating in The Trial of Blood! Directions: Make Shang Tsung bleed 80 pints of blood before he defeats you or time runs out. >Immediately take out your Kori Blade, and repeatedly perform the Bitter Blade combo, 1 - Back - 1. That combo takes off massive "blood." This is a rather difficult Trial of Blood. Try to best avoid Shang's combos, as they not only whittle your life away, they take precious time off the clock. You only have 1 minute to complete this mission, so bide your time well. The 80 pints should come easy if you use the Kori Blade and its combos. Mission Complete! You earned 200 Jade Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 9: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Your combo skills have improved greatly. Now you must expand your training further. You must learn to combine fighting styles to form more powerful attack combinations. Combining multiple styles into one combo is called a Style Branch combo. This method of attack can separate the truly skiled warriors from the truly unskilled warriors... Directions: This first Style Branch combo begins with the Shotokan style, and goes into the Dragon style. 1. 1 - 2 - 4 - CS Directions: Good. Now you will repeat that Style Branch combo, but this time you will add one more attack from the Dragon style. 1. 1 - 2 - 4 - CS - 2 Well done. Scorpion may rethink his vow not to kill you after such punishment. Directions: Now that you have mastered the combo, practice some different ways to finish off the combo. 1. Unthawed: 1 - 2 - 4 - CS - 2 - Up - 4 2. Zero Below: 1 - 2 - 4 - CS - 2 - 4 Excellent. Even the Lin Kuei warrior, Frost, was unable to complete that combo. But now you must progress to learn the kind of attack combination that makes Sub-Zero a formidable foe. Directions: You must combine all three of Sub-Zero's fighting styles into one long Style Branch combo. 1. Frosty: 1 - 2 - 4 - CS - 2 - CS Mission Complete! You earned 250 Jade Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 10: <<<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Excellent! You have learned much on this journey. You have honed your skills, as well as defeated your opponents. Now, one more task is at hand. Defeating another foe is inconsequential. A warrior will have many opponents in his lifetime, but there is only one demon that poses the greatest threat. To overcome one's own imperfections is the true way to inner peace. The ultimate opponent is one's own self. Your final test will be to face your dopplganger. Now you must win 3 out of 5 rounds to complete your training. Fight! Directions: Win 3 out of 5 rounds in a duel to the death. >Sub-Zero is a little difficult at first; once you get to know his moves he becomes quite easy. He will come out attacking with some cheap little pop-up Shotokan combos. Try and sidestep those, and counter with some of your own higher hitting Shotokan Branch combos. Also, don't use your weapon a lot, as it only leaves you open for bigger attacks from your former self. Just use some big and small Style Branch combos, and watch out for his cheap small juggle hits. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete. But the road to your destiny is long traveled, and there is always more to learn. You earned 300 Ruby Koins. -=-=- Kano: -=-=- >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 1: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Kano has a knack for survival. Not only has he survived massive attacks from his enemies, but his lack of loyalty allows him to change sides to suit his goals. This mercenary has betrayed many who have cllaed him ally. You must watch your back as you embark on this journey. Meaning 'mind form,' Xing Yi is a simple and practical style of kung-fu taht originated in the San-Shih province of China. This is a northern Chinese system, which relies on short basic fomrs for training. This art has long been associated with Ba Gua beginning in the early 1900's, and the two are often taught together. High atop a skyscraper, Kano faced off against Special Forces agent Sonya Blade during Shao Kahn's invasion of Earthrealm. Directions: Find out how much she's missed you by applying Kano's Xing Yi basic high attacks to her pretty face. 1. Straight Punch: 1 2. Axe Strike: 2 3. Front Snap Kick: 3 4. Rising Knee: 4 5. Power Fist: Back - 1 6. Tiger Strike: Toward - 2 7. Hopping Back Kick: Back - 4 Kano had kicked Sonya into one of the stone gargoyles on the roof of the skyscraper. Directions: Try out Kano's pop-up attack called the Lifting High Kick. 1. Lifting High Kick: Up - 4 OY! Not Bad! The Lifting High Kick pops Kano's opponent into the air long enough to attempt another attack. Directions: Now juggle Sonya in the bristols with 3 Lifting Kicks before she hits the ground. >Up - 4, Up - 4, and Up - 4 again to juggle Sonya in mid-air. Sonya was on her knees, defeated. Kano grabbed a lock of her hair in his fist, and prepared to finish her. Suddenly, the wench sprung a leg grab flip attack, and sent Kano over the side to the street below.

When the timer reaches 1, hit the SM Button to Reverse Sonya's attack 2 times. Perform this twice to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Ruby Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 2: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Like the Special Forces agent, Jackson Briggs, Kano is skilled in martial arts fighting techniques that specialize in throwing an opponent to the ground. The style Kano uses most is Aikido. Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed in the first half of the 20th century by the founder of the Black Dragon clan, Morihei Uyeshiba. Through Aikido, Uyeshiba developed extraordinary self-defense skills. He could take down and pin opponents of much greater size. Directions: Practice Kano's basic Aikido throws on his largest enemy, Jax. 1. Heaven and Earth Throw: 1 2. Breath-Power Throw: 2 3. Normal Throw: Toward - SM Jax is quite angry now.

But the Shokan warrior, Sheeva, slew Motaro outside of Kano's cell. She was on her way to assassinate Shao Kahn as well when Kano offered his assistance if Sheeva let him out of his cage. Kano and Sheeva proceeded to the throne room of Shao Kahn. When they arrived at the door, Kano suggested that he go in first to distract the Emperor. Kano would give the signal for Sheeva to enter and slay the peroccupied Shao Kahn. But Kano betrayed Sheeva and informed Shao Kahn of her assassination plot. When Kano called her in, Shao Kahn thrust a sword through her chest from behind. Like the Red Dragon clan member, Mavado, Kano uses a double- weapon fighting style. Kano's Butterfly Knives have a 200-year history as part of the Shaolin system. Kano hates the SHaolin and uses the knives in his own way. Directions: Mavado is a right jam roll! Attack him with Knao's Butterfly Knife high attacks. 1. Jut Do: 1 2. Twisting Sword: 2 3. Biu Do: 3 4. Pek Do: 4 5. Downward Circling Sword: Back - 1 6. Upward Circling Sword: Back - 2 7.

She then manipulate Cyrax to retrieve a mysterious Orb hidden somewhere in that realm. Although Nitara relies on deception to attain her goals, her fighting styles are very direct, as you will soon discover. Nitara's first fighting style is the Leopard style, which is known for its cruel and cunning attacks. The Leopard style is one of the most vicious and crafty of the animal fighting styles. Not as strong as the Tiger style, but it is superior in its swiftness and jumping ability. The techniques simulate those of a Leopard, stressing the importance of free movement and quick actions. Directions: Like Nitara, Scorpion is a creature of the darkness. See how you fare against him as you practice her Leopard techniques. 1. Paw Strike: 1 2. Switching Paw: 2 3. Spinkick: 3 4. Front Kick: 4 5. Front Rising Paw: Down - 1 6. Soaring Paw: Back - 2 Directions: Very well done. You hit him like a bomb. Nitara's Leopard style also has a set of low attacks. She uses these moves to keep her opponents guessing. 1. Sweep Kick: Back - 3 2. Step Kick: Down - 3 3. Low Kick: Down - 4 4. Low Jab: Down - 2 A powerful Leopard attack that Nitara uses to put distance between herself and opponents is the Dual Claw Push. With one massive hit, Nitara can send her opponent sailing across the arena. Directions: Attack the Ninja Spectre Scorpion with the Dual Claw Push twice. 1. Up - 1 2. Up - 1 Well done. Next, you will practice a useful Leopard attack called the Lifting Strike, which allows Nitara to pop her opponent into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Attack Scorpion with the Lifting Strike, and then juggle him in the air with 3 more Lifting Strikes before he hits the ground. 1. Back - 1, Back - 1, and Back - 1, to juggle Scorpion in the air. The Deadly Lifting Strike allows Nitara to pop an opponent into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Try juggling Scorpion with the Lifting Strike, and while he is still in the air, attack him with the Dual Claw move. 1. Back - 1, Up - 1, while he is in the air, perform the Dual Claw to send him reeling across the screen. While in the Leopard style, Nitara can flap her wings to propel herself backward. This Escape maneuver allows her to put distance between herself and her opponent. Directions: Try to execute 3 successful Escapes, and get yourself out of harm's way. >Tap the SM Button 3 times to complete the mission. When Scorpion gets close, just Throw him, and Escape again. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 2: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: You have fought well against Scorpion, and have learned much about the Leopard fighting style. But you must not stope there if you wish to complete this journey. You must learn another of Nitara's fighting styles. As you train in the fighting art of Fu Jow Pai, your opponent will be the creature Reptile. Nitara saw in Reptile a fool to be exploited. She deliberately led him away from his master Shao Kahn both to gain his trust, and to allow the sorcerers Quan Chi and Shang Tsung to perpetrate their assassination plot. Had Reptile been at the Emperor's side, they would never have succeeded. Fu Jow Pai was originally 'Hark Fu Moon,' or Black Tiger System. It was renamed by Grand Master Wong Bil Hong to 'Fu Jow Pai of Hoy Hong Temple.' The teachings of Black Tiger Claw Kung Fu has been passed down through the ages without any written documentation, making it difficult to compile its history. Directions: In order to master Nitara's next art of Fu Jow Pai, you must first learn the basic techniques. 1. Straight Claw: 1 2. Upward Paw: 2 3. Back Kick: 3 4. Roundhouse: 4 5. Tiger Strike: Back - 2 A useful Fu Jow Pai attack, called the Lifting Kick, allows Nitara to pop her opponent into the air long enough to execute another attack. Directions: Execute this devastating attack 3 times on Reptile. 1. Up - 4 2. Up - 4 3. Up - 4 Directions: Excellent. You are learning quickly. Let us move on to Fu Jow Pai's low attacks. Practice these low attacks on Reptile. 1. Tiger Scratch: Down - 2 2. Spinning Low Kick: Down - 3 3. Shin Kick: Back - 4 4. Low Toe Kick: Down - 4 5. Knee Strike: Back - 1 By channeling energy from a crystal necklace through her Fu Jow Pai style, Nitara is able to perform a Neijin. A Neijin allows Nitara to increase the power of her attacks for a limited period of time. Directions: Execute a Nejin, and strike Reptile with a powered-up attack. 1.Tap the SM Button and attack Reptile with the Lifting Kick (Up - 4) to make it easy, and complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Sapphire Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 3: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Excellent! Your training in the art of Fu Jow Pai is complete! Let us move on to Nitara's weapon style, the Kama. The Kama is a farm implement used for rice harvesting. It was adopted as a weapon in China, Okinawa, and Japan when vampire invaders from Outworld were witnessed using similar weapons. In China and Japa, the Kama was often used in conjunction with a chain to encircle opponents. The Okinawans preferred to use two Kama together. The Kama is one of the five principle weapons of the Okinawa art of Kobudo Kobujutsu. Nitara uses this traditional vampire weapon to viciously tear open her opponents. You must learn her techniques to further balance your fighting skills. You will spar with Cyrax. Through careful manipulation, Nitara had coerced Reptile to destroy Cyrax's arm console, preventing the cyborg ninja from returningg to Earthrealm. Directions: Welcome Cyrax to Outworld with a few devastating Kama attacks. 1. DualOverhead Strike: 1 2. Hook Swipe Knockdown: 4 3. Low Cross Strike: 3 4. Charging Overhead: Back - 4 5. Scissor Swipe: Toward - 1 Excellent. Nitara was suspiciously present immediately after Cyrax defeated Reptile. She made him an offer to return him to his home realm, if he would aid her in retrieving a mystical object that bound her realm to the realm of Outworld. Directions: Now you must offer Cyrax some of Nitara's Kama low attacks. 1. Low Rising Swing: Down - 1 2. Backhand Swing: Down - 2 3. Low Sweeping Slice: Down - 3 Very well done. A useful Kama attack, called the Rising Swing, allows Nitara to strike an opponent while in mid-air. Directions: Attack Cyrax in mid-air with the Rising Swing attack 3 times to continue further. >Cyrax will continually back up and jump toward you. Time it just right so that you hit him while he is in the air. Complete this 3 times to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 150 Jade Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 4: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: Most impressive! You have mastered Nitara's three fighting styles. Now you must train in the dark arts of the vampire special attacks. The Vampire nation has existed for eons, and has traveled to many realms to feed on the blood of lesser species. Earthrealm has been an excellent source of food, but its sun emits a form of radiation that is quite harmful to vampires. As a result, vampires can only traverse to that realm for brief periods of time, and only to the hemisphere opposite the sun. One attack used often by vampires is the Blood Spit. By regurgitating previously consume blood, Nitara can hurl the bewitched liquid at her opponent from a distance. Directions: Practice the Blood Spit 3 times on the Outworld Master Bo' Rai Cho, a man who is no stranger to vomit. 1. Toward - Back - 2 2. Toward - Back - 2 3. Toward - Back - 2 Directions: That blood attack was quite obscene. The Bloody Spit is in your genes. Bo' Rai Cho attacks this bout. Spit 3 times 'fore time runs out. >Cho attacks you this time. Watch out for his high hitting combos. Dodge his attacks and Spit at him. Also, if you throw him, it creates distance allowing you to hit him with the Spit right away. Do this 3 times to complete the objective. Well done! But you have only begun to harness the true nature of a vampire. Vampires must consume the blood of others to survive. It has been this way since before recorded vampire history. If Nitara feels her life force diminish during a battle, she can rejuvenate her health by extracting a small amout of blood from her opponent, leaving him weaker. Directions: Master Bo' Rai Cho has much blood to spare. Practice Nitara's throw on him 2 times. 1. Toward - SM 2. Toward - SM Directions: Ineed you are most agile. Now try her throw 2 more times while Bo' Rai Cho is moving. >Bo' Rai Cho actually spars this time. Just dodge his moves, and hit the SM Button when he gets close 2 times to complete the mission. Mission Complete! You earned 175 Gold Koins. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mission - 5: <<<<<<<<<<<< Pre-Mission Introduction: That was very bloody! Wipe the crimson elixir from your face before you begin the next lesson. An effective special attack used by the vampire elite is the Unicorn Kick. Although the name sounds most frightening to a vampire, it is not so intimidating to others. The kick itself, however, is indeed something to fear. Directions: Practice Nitara's Unicorn Kick against Quan Chi 3 times before time runs out. 1. Back - Down - 4 2. Back - Down - 4 3. Back - Down - 4 Directions: You are indeed learning at a pace that kills. Use the Unicorn Kick against Quan Chi 3 times more. This time, the sorcerer will be well prepared. >Quan Chi is out to get you this time. Sidestep his moves and immediately counter with the Unicorn Kick. Complete this 3 times to complete the mission. Mission Complete!

They are foul creatures consumed with hatred and possessed with the desire to inflict pain and suffering upon others. Drahmin is no exception. With his right arm completely encased within an iron club, he eagerly crushes his opponents to dust. You must learn to use this rage to your advantage. The torturous environment of the 5th plane of the Netherealm can twist any being into a vicious monster. Such is the story of Drahmin, the Oni Tormentor.

If Quan Chi had the means to free Drahmin and Moloch, he had to do it fast. Drahmin had no patience for broken promises. Especially the promise of freedom.

It is a completely different situation when confronting a foe that can anticipate your every move. Your final test will be to face a mirror image of Hsu Hao. If you can win 3 out of 5 matches, you will have completed your training. Good luck. Directions: Win 3 out of 5 matches in a duel to the death. >Hsu Hao will almost always go for his Watch This combo. Block the entire thing, and finish it up with one of your own combos. Don't use the Throw too much, because it is a low throw, and the AI is too smart, and will block it every time. Also, shy away from Hsu's Special Moves, as they do little damage. Just concentrate on dodging his moves, and following up with yours. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete.

Although victory seemed attainable, Kitana did not know how long her troops could sustain the attack. Ba Gua Zhang, translated to Eight Trigram Palm, is a relatively new Chinese martial art, having been developed in the late 1800's.

He accepted her gift of the ancient Raptor weapon readily. Nitara's presence had a soothing effect on Reptile. She claimed to have information that would help his master Shao Kahn in the battle with Kitana's forces. Reptile knew he could trust her. He could sense no deceit.

She pulled the weapon from her body, and tried to calm him down. However, Reptile's imagination was out of control by that time. Instead of Nitara, he now saw Kitata before him. If he had not wasted time to inspect Kitana's military encampment, he would have been in the throne room to defend his master. Directions: It's all Kitana's fault! Make her bleed! Spill 80 pints of her blood before she defeats you or you come to your senses. >Kitana will use her cheap pop-up combos on you to gain extra hits.

Reptile paused for a moment to flex his leathery muscles in victory. But before he could belt a triumphant scream, a great monster with many teeth came whirling outward from inside his defeated foe's chest. Unable to comprehend this new danger, Reptile fled in fear. He wandered again aimlessly, realizing that he had failed another master. He was angry with himself and let his imagination run wild. He imagined that standing before him was his true enemy... Directions: Reptile must face himself in Mortal Kombat. Defeat the imaginary manifestation of Reptile 3 out of 5 matches in a duel to the death. >Reptile is not as hard as he may seem at first. One just needs to be on the lookout for his Lizard Ball move, which must be blocked low, and is hard to detect at first. You should try and dodge his Special Moves and counter with some high hitting combos, followed up by extra cheap hits. As always, Throw to creat distance, and since Reptile has projectile attacks, use them to your advantage. Mission Complete! Congratulations! You have finished your training! This journey is complete.

During the battle, the arm console that allowed him to traverse the realms was damaged. He was stranded in Outworld.
