History Characters / MortalKombat11

* YouRemindMeOfX: To Spawn, Jacqui Briggs reminds him a lot of Wanda Blake - a love of his former life. She (understandably) advises him not to let this thought mess with his head. He also compares the Terminator to Overtkill and, of course, gets heavy Violator vibes from The Joker. He also believes Kollector and D'Vorah to be associated with the Phlebiac Brothers and likens Kronika to Malebolgia in his ending.

* HeelRealization: [[spoiler:Realizing how Kronika's repeated attempts to sculpt the perfect timeline corrupted her and that mortals should shape their own destinies instead of someone lording them around, Geras redeems himself by performing a HeroicSacrifice so that the hourglass can run on auto-pilot in his non-canon arcade ending.]]

* EvilCostumeSwitch: Calling her "good" in the context of the story is pushing it, but [[spoiler:her last appearance after Fire God Liu Kang defeats the remaining revenants depicts her with deathly grayed skin like Shinnok's, an red outfit that shows slightly more cleavage, ordinary rocks with molten lights at their tips in place of the gemstons previously featured on her, and her limbs are depicted as molten. This is all punctuated by her [[RedEyesTakeWarning reddened eyes]].]] It's by this point she's irrevocably on the villain's side (unless it's her klassic tower ending).

* AdaptationalWimp: In his source material, only necro-magic and holy weapons could kill Spawn[[note]]other means could ''hurt'' him, but couldn't put him down[[/note]]. Here, he's just as mortal as the other kombatants.

* BerserkButton: To put it bluntly... ''he fucking hates clowns.'' Even ''Johnny Cage'' isn't exempt from it.

* CarryABigStick: One of the weapons he can conjure is a large spiked club.

* DraggedOffToHell: The ending of his reveal trailer shows him being dragged through a portal to Hell and being made to kneel before Malebolgia. [[spoiler:Spawn also does it to Kronika after defeating her in his Arcade ending; ensuring she lives, but [[FateWorseThanDeath banishing her to the same void as Malebolgia to suffer eternal damnation]] for her crimes after forcibly taking away her control of the Hourglass.]]

** One of his mirror-match quotes has him wonder if Mammon -- a demon-lord who sought to manipulate Spawn into serving him -- is behind his doppelganger.

** One of Spawn's attacks is called "D-E-D. Dead!" in reference to the Clown's line from ''Film/Spawn1997''.

* WasItReallyWorthIt: While their personalities couldn't be any more different, Spawn recognizes Frost pretty much sold out her soul the exact same way he did and asks her if it was really worth it.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Doubtlessly due to his experiences with Violator, his reaction to seeing the Joker has him remarking he "fucking [hates] clowns." Another interaction has him mistake the Joker for Violator's clown form.

** His second fatality and one of his brutalities reference his first night after his resurrection where he shoots a rapist in the crouch.

* ActorAllusion: If [=RoboCop=] is picked while Johnny Cage is the announcer. He will say "Hey there, Buckaroo." a reference to ''Film/BuckarooBanzai'', another film that Peter Weller starred in. Likewise, Noob Saibot tells Murphy, "Your fate is sealed by a curse. Doomed is your soul, damned is your life," another reference to ''Buckaroo Banzai''.

* BoobsOfSteel: One of the bustier members of the cast and she is canonically the most powerful playable female character in the series, even being above Raiden.

* RealMenWearPink: His Friendship is this, showing him reading a rather saucy romance novel called ''Hellish Desires'', that just so happens to have ''him'' on the cover. He's even using his cape as a hammock, and licks his finger to turn the page... despite wearing a mask. He even gets startled when the Friendship fanfare plays!

* TheDeterminator: They cannot be bargained or reasoned with with (as Erron Black finds out). They do not feel pity, remorse, or pain (as Shang Tsung finds out, to his bewilderment) - and they will never stop, ''ever'', until they complete their mission.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"I am timeless."'']]

->A loyal underling of Kronika, intent on carrying out her will to "correct" the flow of time.

-> He returns in the new era of ''VideoGame/MortalKombat1'' as the guardian of time and friend to Liu Kang.

* FlatCharacter: Ultimately, there is nothing more to her character other than being Kronika's [[TheDragon blindly obedient daughter]], to the point where, canonically, she doesn't show nuance, personal motivation or even hesitation over being sacrificed to empower her mother for the final battle. While her ending and some interactions may imply otherwise, none of these remotely factor into her overall role in the story.

* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:In his non-canon ending, Geras does a HeroicSacrifice to let Kronika's hourglass run on its own to allow mortals have control over their destiny instead of controlling them, having realized that Kronika's repeated attempts to create the ideal timeline slowly corrupted her mind.]]
