Is the story starting to sound like a bad fanfiction to anyone else? As bad as what Annihilation did with Raiden and Shao Kahn being brothers and Shinnok being their father? At least Shinnok's relatives are new characters instead of them asspulling a family tree with already established characters.

Apart from Cetrion's design though, what makes her polizarized is having the elemental powers of other existing characters, which may not only draw ire from fans of those characters, but just the fact there's not much original about her, and even with the other lesser gods MK's roster has had (Raiden, Shinnok), one could say she feels too powerful for a playable/traditional MK character.

Looking back, her design looked more interesting in the Jade MK9 ending than she does now. I don't really have strong feelings on the character either way though, but can see why she's polarized.
