Sheeva/Current Timeline

"For the Shokan!"

- Sheeva's Battle Cry in Mortal Kombat (2011)

Biography

 * Mortal Kombat (2011): Sheeva is a member of the four-armed Shokan race. Her markings reveal that she is of the royal Draco lineage. Like all Shokan, she pledged her life to Shao Kahn, bringing honor to her race by serving him. During an attack by Edenian rebels on Shao Kahn's fortress, Sheeva fiercely protected Queen Sindel and prevented her capture. She was subsequently appointed Sindel's personal bodyguard until the queen's mysterious death in Earthrealm. Sheeva is now the master jailer of Shao Kahn's oppressive dungeon.

Storyline
Sheeva is first seen by Cyrax, when she and Baraka inform Cyrax that the Lin Kuei's service is no longer required, and attack him, but Cyrax defeats both of them in separate battles.

Later on Sheeva is seen guarding Sonya Blade in the Dead Pool. Jax defeats Sheeva and frees Sonya. Sheeva makes another appearance, guarding Kitana, where she is once again defeated by Jade.

After Kabal defeats Cyber Sub-Zero, he is quickly challenged by Sheeva, who believes Kabal has betrayed the Lin Kuei. Kabal informs her he's not a cyborg, and then defeats her in a battle.

Powers and abilities
As a Shokan, Sheeva possesses incredible strength. She retains the common Shokan ability to summon fireballs and utilize a teleport stomp. However, unlike her fellow Shokan warriors Goro and Kintaro, she can use the latter to merely stomp the ground without teleporting, causing damage.
