If Kahil was nothing more than a male counterpart of Nitara (which seemed to be the case), I can't see him as has having been too different from her as far as moves and such go. The developers must've realized he wouldn't really have had anything unique as a fighter when they already had a female vampire that was developed, so they scrapped him early on. At least, that's the best reason I can think of. Don't have anything against vampires (Twilight aside), but pretty much the only way I would want another one in the MK universe as a full-fledged character is if Dracula himself made an appearance as a guest character or something, and for his backstory/arcade ending, it could have something to do with him coming from Nitara's realm and then returning there. I don't know; wouldn't be too hard to think of though.

In theory, I thought the idea of a vampire in MK fit perfectly. A blood thirsty creature in a fighting game universe with blood and guts everywhere, if you will. It's something I wouldn't want to have much more of though beyond Nitara. Ever hear of too much of a good thing?
