Ermac

Image:MK9-Ermac_Face.jpg

As punishment for resisting Shao Kahn’s claim to the realm of Edenia, the souls of the vanquished were torn from their bodies and fused together to form the being now known as Ermac. Bent to Shao Kahn’s will, Ermac is his foremost enforcer. The essences of so many souls bound together give Ermac immense telekinetic power--an advantage that will destroy Earthrealm’s resistance to Shao Kahn’s rule.

Special Attacks

Good for punish in projectile wars. After a hit you can get a free jump for mixups. Punishable on block.
