Mortal Kombat Factions
The Lin Kuei clan has existed for centuries somewhere in China; their first
known base was located somewhere high in the mountains and they trainer
warriors to be assassins and thieves. Just before Shao Kahn’s invasion of
Earth, the Lin Kuei decided to turn their ninjas into soulless assassins and
turned 3 ninjas into cybernetic ninjas including Smoke, Sub-Zero’s best friend.
After Shao Kahn’s invasion the Lin Kuei disbanded and shortly afterwards during
Shinnok’s invasion a few members tried to restart the clan and sent out their
only cybernetic ninjas they had left, Cyrax and Sektor. Sektor however soon
assassinated the grandmaster due to a data error in his circuits and tried to
claim grandmaster status within the Lin Kuei by taking the Dragon Medallion,
however Sub-Zero battled Sektor for that right and won, Sub-Zero now leads the
Lin Kuei and relocated to an Ice Temple and uses the Lin Kuei as a force for
good.
