Tremor

Tremor was a brown garbed ninja and a member of the Black Dragon clan who appeared in Mortal Kombat: Special Forces. He escaped from Special Forces custody during a prison break orchestrated by Kano, to whom he was blindly loyal. Kano assigned him to guard the portal to Outworld and kill any Special Forces agents that may have discovered his whereabouts. Tremor was defeated and killed by Major Jackson Briggs in their encounter.

Background Info
Tremor was originally planned to be in Mortal Kombat Trilogy at one point, but for unknown reasons was replaced in favor of Rain, who had already appeared in the 16-bit console versions of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, Tremor can still be seen in the game's instruction manual, incorrectly labeled as Ermac, depicted as an orange ninja along with Rain's original bio (which he evidently inherited with slight alterations). Both can be seen here. Rumors have persisted for the character's inclusion in the main fighting series of MK games from Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance up to Mortal Kombat: Armageddon. Despite fan interest in the possibility of him making an appearance in Armageddon, Tremor was confirmed by a Midway representative on the company's official discussion forum as not being present in the game. Tremor had been asked by a number of fans to be a DLC character in Mortal Kombat (2011), but co-creator Ed Boon ruled this out, stating that there were characters that he would rather have as DLC characters in the game.
