Biography
Game Continuity
The boy known as Sub-Zero was the son of a Chinese father and a Caucasian American mother. His father was a secret operative of the clan who was sent to the United States. He had two brothers and a single sister. However, his father went against his mother's wishes by taking his sons with him to China where the two were to be trained in the footsteps of their father. Thus, the elder and younger Sub-Zero joined the clan officially while their mother and sister remained in the United States.
When he grew up into a warrior, he learnt of his brothers failure in assassinating Shang Tsung in the first Mortal Kombat Tournament. Furthermore, the elder Sub-Zero was killed at the hands of the hellish wraith Scorpion. The younger Sub-Zero was dispatched by the clan with his close friend Smoke to Outworld to complete their new assignment when the second Mortal Kombat Tournament was announced. However, Sub-Zero discovered that the undead warrior Scorpion was continuing his vendetta against his brother by attacking him as he believed that the warrior he thought he killed had infact survived. Scorpion learnt that Sub-Zero was infact the brother of the elders after his defeat in the Mortal Kombat Tournament. After this event, Scorpion swore not to harm him. Sub-Zero's mission against Shang Tsung was unsuccessful but he managed to aid Liu Kang, Raiden and their allies against Shao Kahn.
Sub-Zero and returned back to Earthrealm empty handed and came at a time when the Lin Kuei developed the means to improve their warriors by undergoing a process that turned them into cybernetic assassins. The Grandmaster of the clan chose four of his warriors for the process which were to be Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke and Sub-Zero himself. The first two had undergone the process which horrified Smoke and Sub-Zero who decided to flee. In their escape attempt, Smoke was captured and forcibly transformed whilst Sub-Zero himself was declared a traitor to the clan and hunted down. This was because Sub-Zero had broken the Lin Keui codes of honor and resulted in the cybernetic Cyrax, Sektor and Smoke being sent to terminate their former comrade. Sub-Zero also recieved a vision from the thunder god Raiden about a new threat that was going to fall upon Earthrealm.
At this point, the armies of Emperor Shao Kahn began an open invasion of Earthrealm. Sub-Zero was one of several mortals who's souls were spared by Kahn and thus was being hunted by his extermination squads. This brought about a greater moral consciousness within Sub-Zero who yearned to be a more honorable warrior. However, he was still being hunted by the cybernetic Lin Kuei assassins who lacked souls to steal who continued their programming to kill Sub-Zero. His first encounter was with his former friend Smoke who managed to overrode his programming and decided to help him defeat Cyrax and Sektor. He next battled Cyrax but rather then destroy his CPU, Sub-Zero reprogrammed him with the mission of hunting and killing Shao Kahn though instead he failed and left stranded in a desert. However, as a result of the battle, Smoke himself was lost and captured by Shao Kahn's troops who imprisoned him in Outworld to study him. Ultimately, Earthrealm's warriors were successful in defeatinh Shao Kahn's forces and were victorious which prevented the merger between Outworld and Earth returning the latter back to normal.
