My #16 is incomplete; it's supposed to be "Kitana, Jax, and Shao Kahn."

[Diablo4485]

Wow, I'm quite impressed.

Well, got most of em right. Your answer for Sonya on #3 is wrong, and you're missing a ninja on #5.

Glad to see someone finally took a stab at this. Been sitting there for close to a week now.

Sonya Blade is the member of a top special force unit. Her team was hot on the trail of Kano's Black Dragon. Her unit followed Kano to an uncharted island, but were ambushed by Shang Tsung's personal army. Tsung forced Sonya into the tournament by holding comrades hostage. Now, not only does her own life rest on her performance, but those of her companions as well!

Got Smoke's number right, but still noone's hit Sonya's real name on the nose.

I just might be wrong about it, but I'll be a little clearer. Yes, Sonya is her first name, but what is her last name? I could swear that it was listed in the instruction manual and it wasn't Blade. If someone actually has it and this isn't true please let me know.

[The Qwardian]

Did you not read what I copied and pasted from Mortal Kombat?

[Diablo4485]

You're right Qward. I concede the last answer to my just plain being wrong.

I could've sworn that I'd read somewhere (in the instructions I'd surmised) that Sonya Blade was a codename, and that her given name was Sonya Davisdon. Guess I was mistaken. :sleep:
