What happens after MKX: Mortal Kombat 11 character Wish List

He's perfect for MK right now. He's a perfect rival for Rain, he has to kill Daegon so he could team up with the Earthrealmers, and he is the last good Edenian so he can bring back the resistance. The only thing JRPG about him is him being chosen and with Edenia gone Armageddon never happens.

Edenia is dead. Its physical soil is ruled by Kotal Kahn, while its sole legitimate heirs are ruling the Netherrealm.

You forget that one of its chosen protectors lives on, his name his Taven. From the fires of the sun arises the light that brings light. Taven can face Kotal and bring back Edenia in an honorable match of Mortal Kombat.

Taven has as much political power in Edenia as you and me. Kitana and Liu Kang are the ONLY legitimate successors to Edenia, and their ruling the Netherrealm. Kotal Kahn is the current legitimate ruler of Edenia's physical soil, so therefore, Edenia is dead.

Legal heirs, yes.
Last I checked, though, the son of Argus (Rain) is from Edenia.
Why can't Rain fight Kotal Kahn and be the new ruler / tyrant (aka Shao Kahn) of Edenia, now that Sindel and Kitana are in the NetherRealm and King Jerrod is dead?

Three reasons

A) Argus had no political power whatsoever in Edenia.

B) He's a bastard son. Bastard children traditionally have no rights of successorship in a Monarchy.

C) He's a traitor to Edenia anyway.

A) Neither did Shao Kahn.
He just took what he wanted, killed Jarrod and conquered both Edenia and Outworld.

B) Hence why I specifically said:

Rulers / tyrants and legitimate heirs are 2 completely different things.
1 is favored by the people and the other is a conqueror who decides to take things by force.

C) Doesn't matter.
Traitor or not, I don't see any reason why Rain can't take that realm by force, if he so chooses and defeats Kotal Kahn for it in the process.
Especially given that Shao Kahn was not Edenian either, yet he still overtook it.
 
I sincerely hope Edenians become more proeminent next game. I really loved Tanya and Rain's roles in X. I can honestly totally see them re-using Taven and Daegon considering all other importante Edenians are dead.
 
Taven doesn't have to be ruler. He is the son of its protector god Argus. All he needs to do is break Edenia from Outworld and promise to protect it as its new god. He could simply gain godhood from the Elder Gods.

Daegon would probably tell Rain he could be king and Daegon would become god protector of Edenia.

If Kitana can't rule Edenia, then it's permanent property of Outworld.

So, another character can't just come and snatch up Edenia, much like Shao Kahn previously did?
Shao Kahn killed King Jerrod and attained Edenia, because Sindel's rule over Edenia was a target to many other rulers like himself, Shinnok, and Onaga.
He captured Sindel and Kitana, only to then become Edenia's illegitimate ruler.
Kotal's rule over Edenia is just as much of a target to other characters, who may want to rule Edenia instead.
 
We also have Rain, which could be more than just henchman fodder in the next game, and actually give him his own story rather than being another lapdog.
Rain is also Argus' (the protector's) son.

Thank you. If Daegon dies we can still have a dynamic between Taven and Rain. The prodigal son versus the bastard son. They could even team up because Taven doesn't know Rain betrayed the resistance.

My predictions for the roster are:
1.Scorpion
2.Sub Zero
3.Reptile
4.D'Vorah
5.Kung Lao (Revenant)
6.Liu Kang (Revenant)
7.Kitana (Revenant)
8.Dark Raiden
9.Fujin
10.Mileena
11.Rain
12.Takeda
13.Cassie
14.Jacqui
15.Sareena
16.Tanya
17.Kung Jin
18.Johnny Cage
19.Sonya
20.Ermac
21.Havik
22.Kenshi
23.Kotal
24.Noob
25.Shang Tsung

DLC: 2 Guest Characters, 2 klassic characters (I'd like to see Reiko and Li Mei)
Boss should be Onaga
 
Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden, Liu Kang, Kitana and Kung Lao will be in, otherwise the fans of those characters will have a hissy fit and burn NRS to the ground if they aren't in.

Some of the trilogy characters that didn't make it to MKX can come back for MK11, and perhaps they can even take Jax, Sonya, Johnny, Mileena, Quan Chi and Shinnok's place.

The only trilogy character that I'm interested in coming back is Shang Tsung, for the reason that I want to see him being in an MK game where he isn't someone's lapdog, for once.
I'd would be nice to see him carry out his own ulterior motives, without them being squashed or controlled by the likes of another villain like Shao Kahn or Quan Chi.

I just hope that we get more post-MK3 characters in MK11 than we got in MKX, along with 2 to 4 more new characters.
