{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Jim Miller}}

{{quote| In the original canon, Sub-Zero and Smoke attempted to escape from the Lin Kuei's automation program, but Smoke was still captured and forcibly turned into an cybernetic assassin.}}

{{quote| During ''Mortal Kombat 9'''s story, Smoke is about to be captured by a team of robotic Lin Kuei until Raiden, who has been receiving premonitions of the future, intervenes and destroys the assault team. This, in turn, leads to Sub-Zero being captured instead of Smoke. Cyber Sub-Zero is the end result of that and also receives a story chapter in Story Mode.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Body Snatcher]]: Shao Kahn's soul [[Oh Crap|does this to Sub-Zero]] in his arcade ending.}}.

* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: As if Sub-Zero needed it or anything, but still.

{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' Dana Lyn Baron}}

{{quote| Shao Kahn has many warriors under his command, but his trust lies solely in the fighters of his own creation. Warrior blood gathered from countless battlefields, fused with sorcery, produced his most effective enforcer yet: Skarlet. }}

{{quote| An expert tracker, she preys on those deemed enemies of the empire. During kombat, Skarlet gains strength from her opponent's blood, absorbing it through her skin. Shao Kahn has a new mission for this formidable kombatant: discover Quan Chi's true intentions and kill him if he plots betrayal of the emperor.}}

* [[Ascended Extra]]/[[Ascended Glitch]]: Like Ermac and Blaze, she was born from an initial rumor. In the older arcade games, [[Palette Swap|Kitana, Mileena, and Jade]] sometimes appeared in red outfits due to a programming glitch; fans named the glitch-character Scarlet (or Skarlet, if you prefer). Fans found her [[Dummied Out]], and the first batch of DLC has revealed her.

* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Her default outfit in ''Mortal Kombat 9'' is essentially a really skimpy bikini.

* [[Blood Magic]]/[[Bloody Murder]]: Shao Kahn created her from magically fused blood collected off of battlefields, she enters fights via a pool of blood, and she also uses a projectile attack that's like a blood version of Johnny Cage's. According to her ending, {{spoiler|she also grows stronger when the blood of others splashes upon her skin.}}.

* [[Cast Fromfrom Hit Points]]: Using her Blood Ball drains her health.

* [[Contract on the Hitman|Contract]]: OnHer Thesiding Sorcerer]]with Reiko ultimately leads Shao Kahn's other assassin, Mileena, to turn on her.

* [[Humanoid Abomination]]: According to her storyline. She's nothing more than a construct of the blood of fallen warriors mixed with sorcery and made to be [[Undying Loyalty|entirely loyal to Shao Kahn]]; additionally, {{spoiler|her strength increases when the blood of other fighters comes in contact with her skin.}}. Essentially, Skarlet is to blood as Ermac is to souls.

* [[Leave No Survivors]]: Anybody opposing Shao Kahn's empire is fair game for her to go after, although Quan Chi takes priority {{spoiler|and by said control she unwillingly kills her own master Shao Kahn.}}.

* [[Remember the New Guy?]]: Given that she appears as early as the ''MK1Mortal Kombat 1'' portions of the story, she's at least a minor case of this.

* [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]: {{spoiler|Once Quan Chi's mind control wears off, and she realizes what she has done by killing her master Shao Kahn, it is ''on''.}}.

* [[Stripperiffic]]: Much like her fellow female fighters, but she appears be wearing ''even less'' than them.

* [[Undying Loyalty]]: To Shao Kahn, as he created her to have such. {{spoiler|Unfortunately, this doesn't stop her from being mind controlled.}}.

{{quote| An exclusive character for the [[Play Station 3|PS3]] version of the game, Kratos is the main character of the ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]]'' series, making his second fighting game appearance since ''[[Soul Series|Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny]]''.}}

{{quote| For other tropes which apply to him, check the ''[[God of War (series)/Characters|GoWGod of War]]'' [[God of War (series)/Characters|character sheet]]. This is only for these tropes which appear in this game.}}

* [[Throw the Dog a Bone]]: His arcade ending. {{spoiler|Possibly the only time a god has shown him respect without being back stabbed.}} .

{{quote| '''Voiced by:''' [[Patrick Seitz]]}}

{{quote| The [[Big Bad]] of ''[[A Nightmare on Elm Street]]''. Appears here as he did in [[A Nightmare On Elm Street 2010|the remake]].}}

{{quote| A malevolent spirit of the Dream Realm, Freddy Krueger preys on the souls of the living as they sleep. When Shao Kahn began to steal Earthrealm's souls - (souls Freddy considered his own -), Freddy battled the emperor in the Dream Realm. But Shao Kahn's will was too strong. He pulled Freddy into the real world, where he was mortal, and defeated him. A badly injured yet determined Freddy fitted both his hands with demonically enhanced razor gloves. Once he has killed Shao Kahn, he will find a way back to the Dream Realm, where he will torment Earthrealm's souls for eternity.}}

{{quote| For other tropes which apply to him, check the ''[[A Nightmare on Elm Street/Characters|A Nightmare On Elm Street]]'' [[A Nightmare on Elm Street/Characters|character sheet]]. This is only for these tropes which appear in this game.}}

* [[Full-Name Basis]]: On the character selection screen, he's the only other character besides Johnny Cage whose last name is displayed and read by the announcer. During gameplay, however, his victories are only announced with "Freddy wins.".

* [[High-Pressure Blood]]: His first fatality involves him physically dragging his opponent into the dream realm, leaving only a fountain of blood where they once stood, [[Shout-Out|just like in the movies.]].

* [[Nightmare Face]]: Covered in burns, as always.
