----------PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE-----------
This guide is a collection of all of TE's secrets into one document.
----------BIOS----------
SHANG TSUNG
Status: Sorcerer
Align: Evil
Origin: Earth/Outworld
Styles: Snake, Crane, S. Sword
The sorcerer Shang Tsung was imprisoned in the depths of Shao Kahn's fortress,
punished for failing to win the Mortal Kombat tournament in Earthrealm.
Periodically he was released to perform tasks for the emperor until he
eventually regained Shao Kahn's favor and was released.
He remained in Outworld risking his life to drain the souls of kombatants in
order to sustain his youth.
All this changed the day the sorcerer Quan Chi returned from the Netherealm.
Quan Chi proposed an alliance between the two sorcerers that would prove to be
mutually beneficial.
He offered Shang Tsung access to unlimited souls through a portal linked to
the heavens in return for his assistance in transplanting warrior souls into
the mummified remains of the Dragon King's undefeatable army.
Shang Tsung accepted the offer and the Deadly Alliance was formed.
BO' RAI CHO
Status: Legendary trainer
Align: Good
Origin: Outworld
Styles: Drunken Fist, Mi Zong, Jojutsu
During the years that Shang Tsung had sponsored the Mortal Kombat tournaments
on Earth, the Outworld master Bo' Rai Cho was secretly training warriors for
competition.
It is even speculated that it was he who brought the fighting style of Drunken
Fist to Earthrealm.
After many years, he finally discovered the Shaolin monk Liu Kang and taught
him the martial arts moves he would need to defeat Shang Tsung.
Later, with the tournament securely in the hands of the Shaolin, his teachings
were no longer needed and he returned to Outworld.
QUAN CHI
Status: Sorcerer
Align: Evil
Origin: Unknown
Styles: T. Soo Do, Escrima, B. Swords
With assistance from Moloch and Drahmin, Quan Chi evaded Scorpion's wrath and
escaped the Netherealm.
Emerging in Outworld, he happened upon an ancient mummified army and struck a
deal with the sorcerer Shang Tsung to revive it.
If he succeeds, he will conquer the realms.
SCORPION
Status: Ninja spectre
Align: Neutral
Origin: Earth/Nether
Styles: Hapkido, Pi Gua, N. Sword
The ninja spectre Scorpion had assumed for many years that Sub-Zero had killed
his family and clan only to later discover that the true murderer was the
sorcerer Quan Chi.
After revealing his treachery, Quan Chi then attempted to send Scorpion to the
5th plane of the Netherealm.
Thinking quickly, Scorpion grappled the sorcerer at the last moment and they
were both transported to that forbidden realm.
Scorpion hunted Quan Chi relentlessly throughout the Netherealm.
Eventually, though, Quan Chi discovered a way back to Outworld through a
strange portal.
Scorpion followed Quan Chi through the portal, but emerged in a different
location far from his prey.
He can still sense Quan Chi's presence and will hunt him down whatever the
cost.
JOHNNY CAGE
Status: Movie star
Align: Good
Origin: Earthrealm
Styles: Karate, Jeet Kune Do, Nunchakus
Johnny Cage had been fed up with the lame writing on his current movie "Mortal
Combat: The Death of Johnny Cage" in which his character repeatedly died and
was resurrected.
To him, his real-life adventures were much more sensational...
He kicked butt!
But his studio felt that the hero needed to take a fall for dramatic purposes.
Johnny Cage reluctantly agreed to continue with the project until the thunder
god Raiden called him away to a new adventure in Outworld.
RAIDEN
Status: Thunder god
Align: Good
Origin: The Heavens
Styles: Nanchuan, Jujutsu, Staff
The Elder Gods were fully aware of the potential damage the alliance between
Quan Chi and Shang Tsung posed to the stability of the realms.
Yet even with this foresight, they all stood firm on their decision not to
interfere.
All, that is, except for one... Raiden.
The former god of thunder pleaded with his fellow Elder Gods to take action,
but they refused.
Disgusted, Raiden relinquished his Elder God status and returned to Earthrealm
to gather support against the coming storm.
SAREENA
Status: Assassin
Align: Neutral
Origin: Netherealm
Styles: T. Kwon Do, Yuan Yang, Sais
The Netherealm demon, Sareena, lost her human form in an attack from the
fallen Elder God, Shinnok.
She was transposed back into her demon form as her essence descended back to
the 5th plane of the Netherealm.
Sareena remained there until she discovered an abandoned portal that led to
Outworld.
Once in Outworld, she learned to feed off of the living aura of that realm to
regain her human appearance.
She no longer needed Quan Chi's sorcery to sustain her exterior beauty.
NITARA
Status: Vampire
Align: Neutral
Origin: Outworld
Styles: Leopard, Fu Jow Pai, Kama
The vampire Nitara had at long last discovered the location of the orb that
bound her realm to Outworld.
Unfortunately, it rested in a location she could never access.
However, the ninja cyborg Cyrax of Earthrealm had the ability to retrieve it
for her.
Through careful manipulation, she convinced Reptile to engage Cyrax in combat
and destroy his arm panel in the process.
The damage to his transporter left him stranded in Outworld.
Her plan was coming together beautifully.
----------FATALITIES----------
Possibly the defining characteristic of Mortal Kombat, a Fatality is a command
input which can be entered at the end of a match to kill your opponent in
various nasty ways. There are at least 2 kinds of Fatalities in TE. Normal
Fatalities, which are performed with a character's athletic prowess or special
skills, and Weapon Fatalities, which are performed with a character's weapon.
Weapon Fatalities must be unlocked in the Krypt before using them, either by
being purchased with koins, or, in some cases, by completing certain in-game
requirements.
These are the known Fatalities. All of the Fatalities listed have been
confirmed by me. Other Fatalities have been discovered, but I have not tested
them yet, so they are not listed. So far I have verified normal Fatalities for
every character except Shang Tsung, including the hidden characters.
Key:
B - Press in the opposite direction of your opponent. For example, if your
opponent is to the right of you, press left.
F - Press toward your opponent. E.g., if your opponent is to the right of you,
press right.
U - Press up.
D - Press down.
P - Press the punch button.
K - Press the kick button.

Thanks to PuPz, Jkool, darkazngamer, duffman72, Gogettonks, Mehztizho,
sarcops, mosaic, billyramiel, Anubys, Vypr, and Bloodspoor from the TE
GameFAQs board for the Fatalities.
----------UNLOCKABLE CHARACTERS----------
HSU HAO
Beat the Arcade mode at Normal difficulty.
DRAHMIN
Beat the Tag Team mode at Normal difficulty.
SEKTOR
Beat the Tag Team mode at Hard difficulty without using continues.
REPTILE
I got him after beating the Arcade mode with Drahmin. Some have said you need
to beat Arcade with every unlocked character, but I hadn't beaten it with
Sektor yet, even though I had earned him.
NOOB SAIBOT
I haven't found a way to unlock Noob Saibot. E-mail me if you find a way.
There is, however, a Visual Boy Advance code to play as him at the end of this
FAQ.
Thanks to Jkool and darkazngamer from the GameFAQs TE board for most of these
methods of unlocking the characters.
----------KRYPT----------
There are basically 4 types of things you can unlock in the Krypt. Most common
are colors. These are alternate outfits you can choose by pressing the L and R
buttons on a character. Then there are modes. These are extra visual effects
for playing the game which you can activate in the Advanced section of the
Options menu. Only one mode may be selected at a time. Also unlockable are
Weapon Fatalities, which can only be used when unlocked. Finally there are
secret characters. But these cannot be purchased, and must be earned by
completing the game under various conditions. The Krypt also contains other
bonus items, such as new arenas and the ability to play the Test Your Might
and Test Your Sight bonus games at any time.
Thanks to Smoke Dragon from the TE GameFAQs boards for this list. I started
typing it, but he posted it in its entirety while I was asleep, so I used his
instead. :) G next to a number indicates the koffin must be purchased with
gold coins, and Unlock indicates the item must be earned, not purchased.

----------ENDINGS----------
SHANG TSUNG
The Deadly Alliance was successful in reviving the mummified remains of the
Dragon King's undefeatable army.
Shang Tsung, however, began to realize that his relevance in the partnership
had evaporated once his talents for soul transplantation were no longer
needed.
The balance of power within the Deadly Alliance had seemingly been undone.
Fearing betrayal he secretly instructed Kano to steal Quan Chi's amulet in an
attempt to gain control of the army.
Since part of the soul-transfer spell included the command to obey "...he who
possessed the amulet...", the army would obey Shang Tsung and not Quan Chi,
once the amulet was in his possession.
Amulet in hand, Shang Tsung revealed his betrayal to Quan Chi and commanded
the army to destroy the sorcerer.
Shang Tsung would succeed where others had failed.
He would conquer the realms.
He would conquer the Earth.
BO' RAI CHO
Bo' Rai Cho looked gruff, but beamed inwardly.
With their victory over the Deadly Alliance complete, he and Kung Lao had
liberated Outworld from its latest threat.
Despite the years that had passed since training his last student, his skills
had proven useful once more.
He was elated, but it would be inappropriate to express such emotions in front
of his newest apprentice.
Kung Lao invited his master to return with him to Earthrealm, to teach more
warriors at the Wu Shi Academy.
The success of his apprentice gave him renewed confidence in his training
skills and, for the first time, a clear purpose in life.
Bo' Rai Cho offered only token resistance.
He accepted the offer because the defenders of Earthrealm could certainly use
his help.
But more importantly, because Earthrealm's rice wine put Outworld's liquor to
shame.
QUAN CHI
The Deadly Alliance was successful in reviving the mummified remains of the
Dragon King's undefeatable army.
It would appear that nothing could stand in the way of Shang Tsung and Quan
Chi as they began their domination of the Realms.
Unfortunately for Shang Tsung, however, Quan Chi had no further need for the
partnership.
Once Shang Tsung had finally revived the last of the mummified warriors, Quan
Chi closed the portal to the heavens and effectively shut off Shang Tsung's
endless supply of souls.
Quan Chi then instructed Kano to assassinate Shang Tsung in a surprise weapon
attack.
With their captor cut wide open, the thousands of souls Shang Tsung had
consumed in the past spewed forth and swirled about the room.
Quan Chi came to the realization that if Kano could so easily kill Shang Tsung
he could also turn on Quan Chi himself.
Quan Chi used his sorcery to drain the life from Kano and left his body where
it fell.
Immediately one of the lingering souls shot into Kano's body.
To Quan Chi's surprise, the man standing before him was no longer the Black
Dragon thug known as Kano.
Kano's body now contained the soul of the Shaolin monk...
Liu Kang!!
SCORPION
The hunt for Quan Chi had led Scorpion to the palace of Shang Tsung.
Scorpion entered the palace through a hidden passage.
As he made his way through the lower levels, he was discovered by the two Oni
he had previously encountered while in the Netherealm.
Shang Tsung had secretly allied with Moloch and Drahmin as a backup defense
against Quan Chi.
The two Oni had been hidden in an underground chamber and were periodically
fed mortals to keep them satisfied.
Scorpion fought well but was overpowered by Moloch and Drahmin.
Although they could not consume the ninja spectre, they devised another means
for eliminating their foe that would satisfy their cruel nature.
The Oni brought Scorpion before the portal to the heavens that Shang Tsung had
tapped as a source of limitless souls.
They hurled him into the soulnado and his hellspawn body was ripped apart by
the purity of that realm.
JOHNNY CAGE
Upset by the way his adventures had been portrayed in the past, Johnny Cage
found a loophole in his contract and leaves MCM Studios during the production
of "Mortal Combat: The Death of Johnny Cage."
He then used his own money to fund the production of his next movie, which is
rumored to be the true story of his latest adventures in Outworld.
"Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance" broke all records its first weekend in
theatres and made Johnny Cage extremely wealthy.
The movie told the true story of how Johnny single-handedly saved the world
from the threat of Quan Chi and Shang Tsung's Deadly Alliance.
RAIDEN
Once again, the threat to Earthrealm has been vanquished.
The Deadly Alliance is no more.
What dangers lie in the future, I can no longer foresee.
Perhaps the Dragon King will in fact return.
Perhaps the depths of the Netherealm will spew forth a legion of Oni.
Even the vampire peoples pose a threat to peace now that Outworld is in chaos.
But one thing is for certain...
Earthrealm must be protected.
I have abandoned my status as Elder God to aid these mortals...
An act defiant of the heavens.
I will instead remain here on Earth...
As god of thunder.
SAREENA
While in Outworld, the demon known as Sareena encountered Sub-Zero.
Since she had freed his brother from his confines of the Netherealm so many
years ago, Sub-Zero offered her asylum within the Lin Kuei.
His compassion may be honorable, but befriending a demon of the Netherealm is
not an action without risk...
As Sub-Zero may soon discover.
NITARA
After what seemed like an eternity, Cyrax finally emerged from the lava,
holding the orb that had bound Nitara's realm to Outworld for ages.
At last it was within her grasp.
She would be able to free her people from Shao Kahn's imprisonment.
Fulfilling her end of the bargain, she sent Cyrax back to his Earthrealm home
in exchange for the orb.
Nitara stared into the orb. It seethed with the power trapped within.
She raised it above her head, and then smashed it to the floor.
It shattered with an inhuman, soul-rending howl. Its horrible energy exploded
away, and tore her consciousness from her.
She awoke later for the first time on her native soil.
----------VISUAL BOY ADVANCE CODES----------
These are codes for the most popular Gameboy Advance emulator, Visual Boy
Advance. I don't know if they work on other cheat devices such as Gameshark
or CodeBreaker. Probably not. These are included because many people may be
playing the game on that emulator until they get the game at their local store
for portable fun. ;)
Infinite Energy P1
03000761:6d
You may want to change 6d to a lower number (01 to 6c) if you get tired of the
announcer saying "Flawless Victory" after every round. :)
Infinite Might P1
03007dad:63
A full meter for when you play the Test Your Might game. Break Diamond without
even trying! This code must be turned off before playing Test Your Sight or
entering the Options menu. I would recommend turning it on for TYM and turning
it off again right after you break the substance.
Infinite Red Koins
030022d0:1869f
Go on a spending spree in the Krypt! Never run out of Red Koins!
Infinite Gold Koins
030022d4:1869f
Like the previous code, only this one gives you an infinite number of those
hard-to-earn Gold Koins.
Color Modifier P1
03002200:0?
Put your character in any of their available colors, even if you haven't
unlocked that color in the Krypt yet! Substitute the ? for the numbers below.
0 - Default
1 - Alternate (P2 colors)
2 - Anime Color
3 - Goth Color
4
5
6
7

Color Modifier P2
Like the previous code, only this puts the computer in those fancy colors.
Sort of like Krazy Kolors mode, only the computer wears the same colors every
opponent.
Use the numbers listed under Color Modifier P1
Character Modifier P1
030021e8:0?
Substitute ? for the numbers below to play as any of the unlockable characters
without first unlocking them. If you want to play as any other character,
they're numbered 0 to e in the order they appear on the character select
screen (for example, Shang Tsung is 0, Bo' Rai Cho is 1, Quan Chi is 2, etc.).
9 - Hsu Hao
a - Reptile
c - Drahmin
d - Noob Saibot
e - Sektor
