Bio

Raiden, God of Thunder, is the Protector of EarthRealm. He and the Elder Gods defeated Shinnok millennia ago when the latter sought dominion over the realms. More recently, Raiden thwarted Outworld’s attempts to conquer and merge with EarthRealm, first through Mortal Kombat tournaments, then via invasion. Victory came at great cost, however, as many of Raiden’s closest allies were killed in the battle. Raiden’s strength was further tested when an escaped Shinnok’s NetherRealm armies attacked an EarthRealm weakened by war. Ultimately Raiden imprisoned Shinnok again – this time in Shinnok’s own Amulet. But rumors have reached Raiden that the Amulet, thought to be secured in an Earthrealm vault for decades, might have been stolen.
