Shang Tsung

'Have a nice day.'

Shang Teung makes his debut to the #hobbitish banner!

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"And now a taste of things to come."

Shang Tsung steps forth! The semi-immortal stealer of souls can copy the abilities of those whose souls he absorbs, or temporarily tethers to, during Kombat. This also rejuvenates him. Like and retweet?

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

He prepared an old favourite of hers.

YawNS...

What did she miss?

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

In twisting the truth." He compliments, before an idea slithers into his mind.

"Perhaps you and I can come to an... arrangement."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"Oh, yes. Magic of all forms are real, beyond your wildest dreams." He twists and comforts the soul, the screaming of a man echoing from within. "And I am the greatest sorcerer of all." He smiled wickedly, hearing the Commander's skills.

"And I see you are no dullard. Skilled +

[The Commander @SnakeOfCommand]

"Magic?" The Commander inquires, leaning forward slightly. "You mean to imply that spells, magical energies and the like are reality in this world?

I suppose you could say I'm not very familiar at all.

My knowledge lies more with military tactics and political navigational.--

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

@SurvivingFang "In breeding loyalty. Even the most hostile of my clones knew their place. You clearly do not."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

He doesn't remember creating @SurvivingFang. Explain yourself.

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

Judging the TL.

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

Certainly can help. Tell me," he conjures an emerald orb from the strange lantern like object nearby. "Are you proficient in the laws of magic in this world?"

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"Polite, and forthcoming. A welcome quality few of your cut have." He sets his scroll onto his hip, and extends a hand, black nail polish on every nail. "Shang Tsung. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Commander." He awaits the handshake. When done, he nods.

"And I most +

[The Commander @SnakeOfCommand]

"How terribly creative." The Commander responded dryly, not sounding particularly surprised.

"Indeed I'm not, though I make it a point to learn more about where I am when I can...and from the way you carry yourself, you're most knowledgeable indeed.

But it is polite to--

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

@SurvivingFang "Hmm. The other version of myself clearly knew what he was doing. But something tells me that your Shang Tsung wasn't as... thorough." Shang analyzes the new version of his masterpiece before him.

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

This caused a very slight eyebrow raise from the old man.

"Then you aren't from around here." He mused, reaching for a scroll. "The Special Forces are a global military unit from Earth. As for a revolutionary, well... thst is refreshing."

[The Commander @SnakeOfCommand]

"Special forces?" The Commander questioned. "A rather general statement if you don't mind my saying.

As for if I'm a renegade, the answer would be no. If anything, I rather fancy myself a revolutionary."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

Mild intrigue combined with irritation.

"Another Special Forces renegade, I presume?"

[The Commander @SnakeOfCommand]

The Commander has come to visit with the reader. What is their reaction to his sudden appearance?

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"You deluded yourself rather deeply in order to protect Kitana." Shang effortlessly flows from insult to "sympathy". He was confident he had her ready for his deception. "So much so you willingly blocked out the trauma you sustained. I can help you... recover. Remember."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"Oh, please. I make her, she is my child. Be smirked. "Like you ever cared for your blood."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

@TexanKombat "I have every reason to be this confident, Mr. Black."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

Observing the timeline with an unimpressed, smug smirk.

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"She's merely lost her way. She'll come back to me.

They always do."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"If you are certain. But I will have you know that Mileena remains a personal favourite. Do not mock her superiority."

[Shang Tsung @DeceptiveKobra]

"As advisor, not as kombatant. Taking you hostage was certainly not my idea."
