Name of character and game that he/she/it appears in: Lara Croft of the Tomb Raider series
Powers/skills/inventory of the character:
Will your character be bringing any other characters, items from their game with them?: She will be accompanied by all of the items listed above as well as her tech assistant Bryce and her butler Hillary.
Why have you chosen this character?: Other than Sonic the Hedgehog, she is the only character that originated from a video game that I feel confident in playing. I love the histroical/archaeological aspect of her character, as it gives me the chance to explore some interesting storylines and themes.
Can you provide any need-to-know information about your character for players with no knowledge of that character? Lara is the heir to her father's fortune and resides at the Croft Mansion in Britain; she inherited his interest in history and mythology and is something of an "extreme" archaeologist.
Please provide your sample "blackout" post if your character comes from a different time to the present setting: *As Eddie has already established Lara within this universe, I shall just continue from where he and Byrd left off.*
The journey from The Natural History Museum to St. Patrick's Cathedral was brief and thankfully uneventful, and Lara used the time to study her companion. He was older than her, and experience had obviously wisened him considerably; bearded, he seemed as though he were far more aged in spirit than in body, and she suspected that he had witnessed horrors that no-one should be subjected to. The mention of his daughter had seemed to wake a woeful, forlorn side of them that he had been quick to conceal. This told her that he did not tolerate self-weakness, no matter the circumstances. Lara had contemplated the possibility of him being a double agent; after all, the mugging had been rather coincedental. Fortunately, she had swiftly devised a tactic to rpotect her from any traitorous movement, and she exercised this strategy as they exited the taxi and strode warily towards the cathedral. It towered over the pair, ancient spires striking upwards at the heavens as intricately-designed stained glass windows came alive with the light of the Sun.
"It is beautiful," Lara said softly, pausing to admire the neo-Gothic architectural feat. "But danger often does hide itself behind beauty. And I have a feeling that our adversaries are ready for us within...well, me. They underestimated me on the plane, and they've no doubt learned from the incapacitation of their agents. You could be the ace up my sleeve. I want you to wait outside; if I'm not out within ten minutes, then act as you see fit. You've obviously fought before, Mister Fisher, but this may not be the kind of combat you're accustomed to." She paused for a moment, mentally checking off what she had covered in her speech. This allowed her time to test Fisher's loyalty, so if a betrayal was imminent, she had time to prepare herself. If he wasn't, then he could be her salvation. She swung her backpack around and delved into it; when her fingertips struck the cool metal of her pistols, she drove them into her jacket holsters in a single, fluid movement. "I think it's quite empty; most people are at the Christmas markets, I suppose."
With that, she stalked inside, alert but not tense. The inner cathedral was rather simple and unassuming, consisting simply of darkly-hued stone walls and rows of wooden pews. Few tourists were scatted about the place, with two robed priests at the forefront of the massive chamber. As she shuffled inside, she moved to check the GPS, only for the edge of a blade to dig lightly into her back. She cursed inwardly - the attacker had come from behind.
"Now, Miss Croft, would you like to direct me to this jewel?" The voice was gruff, the tone fierce. "And don't think I won't use this knife. It's already stained with Larson's blood."
"My, my. Aren't you a treat?" she quipped lightly, and began to hope that Fisher had decided against remaining outside...

Kerrigan was basically the winner in Starcraft: Brood War, and she's a villain ...Pffff bad guys never win. They're too unorganized.

Name of character and game that he/she/it appears in: Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
Powers/skills/inventory of the character: Martial arts expert, can breathe fire, can teleport
Will your character be bringing any other characters, items from their game with them?: sword, spear attack
Why have you chosen this character?: he's my best mk character
Can you provide any need-to-know information about your character for players with no knowledge of that character?
Formerly a human ninja and member of the Japanese ninja clan Shirai Ryu of Osaka, Scorpion is now a black and yellow garbed, hell-spawned revenant, inexorably seeking vengeance against those responsible for the destruction of his clan and the death of his family. Despite the fact that Scorpion has previously allied himself with the forces of evil (when promised either a means of resurrection on Earth or the chance to inflict his wrath against those who butchered his clan), he is not inherently evil.
In fact, Scorpion has, at times, indirectly assisted the game's protagonists, although his reasons for doing so always ultimately serve to benefit his own motives. Fans of the series often perceive Scorpion as the title's foremost anti-hero, due to his tendency to undertake actions which serve to benefit good, albeit in his own gruesome, self-serving and vigilante manner. Scorpion's demeanor, characteristics, persona and self-reliance have all contributed to his popularity, with Scorpion ironically appearing as the most human in nature and choice when compared to the purely virtuous "good guys" and the diabolically evil "bad guys."
Scorpion was once manipulated by Quan Chi, who promised him life in exchange for his impressive combat abilities in order to defeat Sub-Zero the elder. Despite such actions, Scorpion is not entirely merciless, as he once spared the life of Sub-Zero's younger brother. As Scorpion is a spectre, sorcery and supernatural anomalies have previously proven slightly more successful in vanquishing Scorpion in combat. Despite this, none have ever succeeded in destroying him in an absolute sense. When masked, Scorpion appears human, although this is merely an illusion. When revealing his true self, only Scorpion's skull remains, which sometimes appears on fire. Scorpion's most popular and recognised skill is his famous spear attack, which is used to draw an opponent toward him. Scorpion will shout "Get over here!" or "Come here!" and occasionally "Get over here, *****!" whilst attempting this technique with a nasty brutality ending.
Although Scorpion is featured alongside the forces of evil in the opening scene of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, he remains neutral, due to his fierce hatred of Quan Chi.
Please provide your sample "blackout" post if your character comes from a different time to the present setting: Shoa Kahn and Scorpion were having a little pow wow. There was another tournament pretty soon, and kahn wanted to have the best fighters competing
"Scorpion, two of earth's best warriors still have not been taken: Sam Fisher, and Lara Croft. They MUST be at the tournament.
"Yes. I will bring them to you and outworld will have another victory in Mortal Kombat."
Scorpion comprehended his assignment and took the portal to earth in search of Fisher and Croft.
