Mortal Kombat Art Tribute: Darrius (Alt.Costume) from Mortal Kombat Deception
Darrius looks more like a martial artist from a Hong Kong movies made in the seventies and not like the leader of a rebellion in the Realm of Seidan, maybe the Midway Games Chicago team was very inspired by those. “One of the best recruitment tools I have discovered is the law itself. If my ranks are in need of a powerful warrior like a Seidan Guardsman, for instance, I will hire and outsider to kill the man’s family in the hope that his rage will lead to a violent altercation with the assassin. Once he is imprisoned for the attack, I free the Seidan Guardsman and easily recruit him to out cause. “
Interesting but also a bit weird about Darrius in Mortal Kombat Deception was that he had basically nothing to do with the main story of the game. “The mercenary Dairou had succeeded in stealing the Declaration of Order and was paid many coins for his efforts. After Darrius hid the document, he announced its capture to the world and heralded a new beginning for the realm of Seido. As Darrius had predicted, officials were outraged that the resistance had stolen the most prized possession of the Seidan government. Hotaru was ordered to lead the charge against them. He underestimated their numbers, however, and the resistance defeated him and his men. The senate would soon be in the hands of the revolutionaries.”
