Persona Attributes

Kabal is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. A member of the Black Dragon clan with superhuman speed, Kabal has been a recurring antagonist while remaining one of series' most popular characters.

Gender Male Origin Earthrealm Species Human Weapons Hookswords (All appearances) Sawblades (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK 2011, MK11) Fighting Styles Sun Bin (MK:D, MK:U, MK:A, MK 2011, MK11) Goju Ryu (MK:D, MK:U, MK 2011, MK11) In Mortal Kombat 11, the revenant Kabal serves Liu Kang and Kitana, who had by that point become emperor and empress of the Netherrealm, alongside Jade and Kung Lao. A younger pre-disfigurement Kabal appears as well, summoned due to Kronika’s meddling with timeline. This Kabal is still a member of the Black Dragon, and fights a younger Sonya after hearing from the older Kano that she is the one to disfigure him in the future (this being a lie in order to get the two to fight). Due to his constantly shifting allegiances, Kabal's true underlying personality is somewhat vague. As a Black Dragon member, he is shown to be every bit as greedy, ruthless, and amoral as Kano. But at a certain later point, he leaves the Black Dragon and joins the police force to atone for his past crimes, although he is later brought back to the side of evil by Havik (in the original timeline). In MK11, Kabal's backstory is retconned. Instead of being a former Black Dragon member that left the clan and became a police officer, he is instead a former officer that was paid off by Kano to join the Black Dragon, thus causing inconsistencies with the current version of the character from his portrayal in MK (2011). This concept is indirectly used for his character in the 2021 film reboot, having been a former police officer who later joins the Black Dragon. His respirator is still given to him by Kano, however the reason for it and his scarring is unknown like his original game counterpart, however it's heavily implied by Kabal in the film that Kano is responsible for his deformities, showing animosity towards Kano whenever he talks to or about him.

Prompt

Signature Moves Raging Flash: Kabal runs forward at a very fast speed past his opponent, leaving them spinning into a dizzy state. In MK 2011 and MK11, this is called Nomad Dash. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK:D, MK:A, MK 2011, MK11) The enhanced version is called Nomad Charge. This increases the speed of Kabal's start up. (MK 2011) Dash Cancel: Kabal can cancel out of his Nomad Dash at the cost of one defensive meter. (MK11 - Equip Ability) Plasma Blast: Kabal fires a purple projectile from his mask. He can do this both on the ground and in the air. In MK 2011, this is called Gas Blast. In MK11, Kabal instead emits a short-ranged cloud of lethal vapor from his mask which damages close opponents and restands them. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK:D, MK:A, MK 2011, MK11 - Equip Ability) The enhanced version is called Vapor Blast. This makes the projectile larger in size and increases damage. (MK 2011) Amplifying this move has Kabal fire a bigger cloud which deals damage over time as well as stunning the opponent and slightly healing Kabal if he stands in it. (MK11) Sawblades: Kabal summons sawblades from the ground, cutting the opponent. In MK 2011, this is called Buzzsaw. In MK11, he throws it straight forward. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MK 2011, MK11) The enhanced version is called Saw Blades and sends two blades instead of one. Amplifying this move has Kabal throwing a buzzsaw that hits mid and can be turned into a combo by using Nomad Dash. In MK11 if the amplified version connects as a Punish, the attack is turned into a Krushing Blow, where the saw causes major blood loss, dealing double the original damage. Nomad's Touch: Kabal thrusts out his hands towards the opponent, and - if they are in range - will be caught in an odd field that draws them in to collide with Kabal, though only the opponent gets hurt when they make contact. (MK:D, MK:A) Tornado Slam: Kabal takes both hookswords and slashes in front of him, if the opponent is in range, they will be hooked.
