Shang Tsung

Shang Tsung is the mortal shell of a demon once brought to the Mother Realm by Am-ho-tep, an Egyptian Pharaoh. After dying and being reborn many times, Shang Tsung eventually recalled the proper method to create the portal between Earth and the Outworld and contacted his master, Shao Kahn. With Kahn’s assistance and instruction, Shang began to cultivate souls by means of the Mortal Kombat competition on the island of Shimura. For thirteen years, Shang was defeated in combat by his nephew, Kung Lao, until Kahn sent the dragon-man, Goro, to act as champion. On the fourteenth year, Goro killed Kung Lao…

For hundreds of years, Shang Tsung gathered the souls slain in the Mortal Kombat by Goro and others. Slowly, the portal to the Outworld grew. Then, Liu Kang and many other heroes came to the island and, at long last, Goro was defeated and Shang’s plans came to ruin. For his encore, Shang Tsung attempted to lure the heroes of the Mother Realm to the Outworld, where they could be destroyed by Kahn himself. It was a difficult battle and both Sonya and Kano were captured and held captive. With the help of Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Cage, Jax and Kitana, the prisoners were set free.

Now, with the Outworld in shambles, Shang Tsung has been granted more power than ever to help Kahn invade the Mother Realm.
