Raiden
Bio:
Raiden is the God of Thunder and the Protector of Earthrealm. Millennia ago he
and the Elder Gods defeated Shinnok, who sought dominion over the realms. More
recently, Raiden thwarted Outworld's attempts to conquer and merge with
Earthrealm. However victory came at great cost. 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 have been secured in an
Earthrealm vault for decades might have been stolen.
