I always thought that NRS should make a tarkatan Lin Keui ninja turned into a cyborg not really OT but i just wanted to put it out there
 
Scorpion is a spectre
I think shang tsung is human.. just with sorcerer abilities
I see your confusion with Sindel but i think she is an Edenian/Banshee
Noob is a Revenant if im not mistaken (says so in his bio)

They are all undead so.. either or haha

Wouldn't Ermac technically be Edenian?

"As punishment for resisting Shao Kahn's claim to the realm of Edenia, the souls of the vanquished were torn from their bodies and fused together to form the being now known as Ermac." from his bio

Spectre = Wraith is just semantic.
Noob i was sure he was a wraith but ill check it out.
Ermac has edenian souls but his still some kind of avatar with many souls no matter their race.

EDIT: I did some research.
Scorpion---> Wraith or Spectre
Noob-------> Revenant or Ghost
Sindel------> Edenian (just that)
Ermac------> Fusion of Souls

Shang Tsung race is unknown but i doubt he his human.

Theory about the Edenians-

The Edenians live for thousands of years, am I right? But in Story Mode their actions/motives sometimes may seem shortsighted or childish. My theory is that time is stretched in Edenia.

And I find it weird that Shang Tsung was basically from Earthrealm, though in every game his origins are changed. Earthrealmer/Demon/Shapeshifter/Outworlder... its confusing.
