Biography
D'Vorah was a female member of a race of sentient colonial insectoids known as the Kytinn that lived in the island realm of Arnyek. Their solitary nature meant that they had no concept of working together for the common defence of their realm thus making it a conquest by Shao Kahn who merged it with Outworld. In time, she came to adapt to her new surroundings where her uncharacteristic loyalty and insightfulness led to her joining Kahn’s empire. Following a quick rise to political power, she came to serve the Emperor as one of his closest advisors. This was until his defeat and death during his invasion of Earthrealm. In the aftermath, divisions arose over the rule of Outworld with D’Vorah coming to side with the warlord Kotal Kahn who rose to power. During a flashback to Shao Kahn's tournament in Outworld, D'Vorah was overseeing the transporting of the captured Shaolin Monks with Baraka and his Tarkata when Raiden, Liu Kang, and Kung Lao arrived to liberate the monks. When Baraka was defeated, D'Vorah battled Raiden and was defeated. Sometime after Shao Kahn's death, it was shown that D'Vorah helped Ko'atal who deposed Mileena, whom she had previously served. In the process, she killed Baraka. It was D'Vorah who gave Ko'atal the name Kotal Kahn.
In the present, D'Vorah acts as Kotal Kahn's First Minister and official emissary. D'Vorah helps defend Kotal Kahn from Mileena and her rebel faction, who seek to reclaim the throne.

Overview
Personality and attributes
Her people were noted to prefer their solitude.
D'Vorah's loyalty and insightfulness, unusual traits for a Kytinn, led to her quick political rise.
Ultimately, it was noted that D’Vorah’s true allegiance lay with the Kytinn swarm. Only the survival of the hive was her prime concern. As such, she lied, cheated and backstabbed everyone in order to support the swarm. This had led to her serving as a variety of rulers all of whom she ultimately betrayed.
In terms of speech, she was noted to speak in the third person and never used first person in her dialogue. As such, she tended to refer to herself as ‘this one’ when talking to others.

D’Vorah was able to generate webbing and she could use this as a rope. Furthermore, she had a pair of wings that allowed her to fly to a certain degree. In addition, she controlled a number of insects ranging from swarms of flying gnats to large grubs that she could use against her enemies in combat. Some of these insects had their own respective abilities such as firing green venomous resin or others that simply sting her enemies or even detonating to harm a target or a swarm that surround her foe. D’Vorah if badly wounded could see a large insect erupt from her body called the Mother Bug. This form could then shed its skin and restore her to her humanoid form. Her people the Kytinn were said to be immune to poisons.
