 * A character I'd like to call "Kitsune-Chan": Given that Mortal Kombat is in large part indebted to Eastern Asian influences, I'd think to would be interesting to have a character that invokes some common anime tropes. She would be a character who appears to be a teenage catgirl (or in this case foxgirl) in a school uniform, purple colored hair, and a mask that makes her appear to have Anime/Manga facial feature (e.g. big "cute" eyes, barely noticeable nose). However, when Kitsune-Chan removes her mask (such as during Fatalities), she would be revealed to actually be an adult Kitsune with a Fox-like face with purple fur and actual fox ears (of which other characters in pre-match dialogue mistakenly think are just decorations in her masked appearance) and whose true personality is akin to that of B.B. Hood from the Darkstalkers games (namely being a violent psychopath).
 * Goriate: As a compliment to Hotaru, I would introduce for him a lieutenant (who I will call "Goriate", which for anyone wondering is based on the Japanese version of the name "Goliath") who is a battle harden and ruthlessly brutal "Genius bruiser" (to use TV tropes terms) veteran of the Seidan military. Play style wise, Goriate would have one similar to that of Lex Luthor's in Injustice: Gods Among Us.
 * Azulko: A stoical, female Seidan soldier who serves in Goriate's unit who has expertise in technology and reconnaissance.
 * Holokaust: A Seidan Robot powered by an enslaved Blaze (though I'd also like for Blaze to be in the same game as a separate playable character). The design I'd have for the character would be like Blaze's design in Armageddon, but instead as a machine (colored black and gold to match the Seidan troops' battle armor) with tank treads as feet (in a manner like that of Tankor/Vehicon Rhinox in Transformers: Beast Machines). Holokaust's weapons, in addition to its fists, would include some small gun turrets and a giant beam that is fired from its "mouth" or chest.

Well Airbender is a rip-off of anime.
