In Mortal Kombat (1992), it is established that a series of Mortal Kombat tournaments are being held to determine if the forces of Outworld will be permitted by the Elder Gods to invade and conquer the dimension of Earthrealm. He is regarded as Mortal Kombat 's most iconic fighter series co-creator Ed Boon cites Scorpion as his favorite character.
Scorpion has received critical acclaim since his debut and frequently appears in media outside of the games. He is also both a rival and ally of Kuai Liang, the franchise's main Sub-Zero. Depicted as a neutral party in most games, Scorpion generally forgoes the franchise's main conflicts to pursue his personal missions, which sometimes results in him taking the side that will help his objective. Subsequent games reveal that his family and clan were murdered by the sorcerer Quan Chi, who becomes Scorpion's primary target for vengeance. The character's backstory establishes him as Hanzo Hasashi ( Japanese: 波佐志 半蔵), a warrior from the fictional Shirai Ryu clan who was killed by Bi-Han of the rival Lin Kuei clan. His primary weapon is a kunai spear, which he uses to harpoon opponents.ĭebuting in the original 1992 game, Scorpion has appeared in every main installment except Mortal Kombat 3 (1995). An undead ninja, he is principally defined by his quest to avenge the deaths of himself, his family, and his clan. Scorpion is a fictional character and the overall main protagonist of the Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise by Midway Games and NetherRealm Studios.
