The game will start the second that I post this blog, and will end on February 2, 2011 at midnight (by Mortal Kombat Wiki's clock).

Winners
There will be two winning kombatants in this game. The first winner will be one decided by popular vote. The second winner will be one decided by me. Both winning kombatants may have been created by the same user, or by different users.

Prize
Both winning kombatants will receive a custom-created artwork of their character, created by me.

Rules

Biography
Caught up in a whirlwind of time, Ripley has found himself lost. When Raiden reversed time in an attempt to prevent the events of Armageddon, inevitably things fell out of place. All Ripley knows is that he was supposed to be born to two kombatants who fought in the Battle of Armageddon – that is all he knows. And somehow, in slip through the timeline, he got swept up, and wound up in a time he should not be in. He should not exist in this timeline – yet he does.

Ripley wholeheartedly blames Raiden and Shao Kahn for the events the befell the universe, and believes that by defeating them both in Mortal Kombat, he'll be able to snap time back into place, and return things to how they should be! He has found an ally in Fujin, Earthrealm's God of Wind, who believes that the Thunder God has overstepped his bounds in rewriting history.

Ripley is also dead set on discovering his true parentage. Were they Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade, two well-known Champions of Earthrealm? Or the legendary Liu Kang and Kitana? Were the even heroes? Maybe his parents are the infamous Reiko and Tanya. Ripley has found a mentor in Bo' Rai Cho, who seeks to reunite Ripley's parents, in the hope that doing so will set at least a few kombatants back onto the path that the fates intended.

Special Moves

 * 1) Time Warp — Ripley slows down his opponents movements by slipping himself back into the time-stream. In a bluish flash he attacks at a blinding speed.


 * 1) Khopesh Slice — Ripley removes his khopesh from and swings it wildly at in his opponent's direction. If opponent comes near him during this flurry of slashing, they will be struck by his weapon.


 * 1) Disorient — Ripley taunts his opponent and the screen shakes, for the next three seconds, his opponents directional moves are all reversed (when his opponent presses "forward" he or she will move backward instead, et cetera).

X-Ray Move

 * 1) Space Slide — Ripley slips through space, becoming temporarily intangible. He runs through his opponent, sucking energy from them in the process, then appearing on the other side with a bone-breaking kick to the knees.

Fatality

 * 1) Self Infliction — Ripley runs toward his opponent, khopesh raised, and in two quick swipes, cuts the legs off his opponent. While his opponent is on his or her knees, Ripley grabs his opponents hands, becomes intangible in a bluish flash, and shoves his opponents hand through his or her own head. When Ripley stops glowing and is no longer intangible, his opponent screams in agony at the horror that their hand is now stuck inside his or her own skull. He or she slowly falls over as his or her brain is scrambled.

Closing Words
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. And, in case anyone is wondering, the image of "Ripley" above (my Kreate – a – Kombatant), is also an example of the type of artwork the winning kombatants will receive as their prizes.

Good luck! Have fun!
