Cyrax

Story

Prior to the current timeline, Cyrax, a member of the Lin Kuei, was once a human warrior and loyal assassin. However, he was forcibly converted into a cybernetic soldier as part of the Lin Kuei’s Cyber Initiative, which sought to enhance their warriors with technology. Despite his transformation into a machine, Cyrax's humanity occasionally surfaces, and he eventually rebels against his programming, seeking freedom and redemption from the Lin Kuei’s control.

In Liu Kang's timeline, Cyrax was born as part of the Zaki, one of the Lin Kuei's sub-clans in Niger. From a young age she displayed incredible martial abilities and was placed under Sektor's command.
