Welcome! Each headcanon post associated with the Mortal Kombat franchise that I create shall be linked here. I create content for the original timeline (Midway Era), alternate timeline (Netherrealm Era), and Liu Kang's timeline (New Era).
I focus heavily on Rain (All Eras), Erron Black, Bi-Han (New Era), Kombat Kids + Frost (Netherrealm Era), Ashrah (Midway Era), the Black Dragon (Netherrealm Era), the Earthrealm Defenders (New Era), and Havik (Midway Era).
The main ships I enjoy creating content for are: BlackRain (Netherrealm Era), Sekhanreena (Netherrealm + New Eras), Taleena (All Eras), Kotile (Netherrealm Era), Strykabal (Netherrealm Era), RaiLao (New Era), SubScorp (Midway + Netherrealm Eras) & Liutana (All Eras) (and also a lot more than I can think of right off the top of my head)
Requests are OPEN
(Do not ask me for incest or pedophile content. Other than that... go crazy)
(NOTE: I don't personally believe that the Lin Kuei celebrate Christmas because I headcanon that religion isn't allowed within the clan. The mindset of clan before blood also negates the whole family aspect of Christmas. HOWEVER I am making an exception for this list 🤍)

❄️ Bi-Han ❄️
Y'all... this man is not a Christmas hater (LET ME EXPLAIN)
Does he love Christmas? No. The fact of the matter is that Christmas happens during his favorite time of year: winter. Anything that happens in cold weather is decent in his eyes
He enjoys gift giving, especially when it's for Sektor and Sareena. Naturally he is a very observant person, so seeing the look of excitement on his significant others' faces when he gets them exactly what they wanted makes him happy
He's not really into all the family fun that's supposed to occur during the Christmas season (this man is NOT making a gingerbread house). He'd rather curl up near the fire and read a Christmas book (he enjoys A Christmas Carol because of the ghosts) with the people he cares about
DO NOT sing Christmas carols around him. DO NOT ask him to make it snow inside. He will actually lose his mind.
🔥 Kuai Liang 🔥
Kuai Liang is a Christmas enjoyer. He has a lot of positive memories associated with the holidays from when he was younger (playing with Harumi Shirai in the snow, decorating the Lin Kuei Palace with colorful candles)
Baking is one of his favorite Christmas traditions... Though he is an absolute fire hazard in the kitchen. He always ends up with burnt Christmas tree cookies that he absolutely smothers in frosting
Since Tomás has difficulties around the holidays, Kuai Liang goes out of his way to help him feel cheerful by including him in activities. They've spent lots of time doing childish things like building snowmen or decorating a tree in the forest with homemade decorations
Last minute wrapper. Motherfucker is awake the entire night on Christmas Eve trying to wrap all the gifts he got. He is often exhausted on Christmas morning... And some Christmas' he doesn't wake up before noon
When he moved to Japan to establish the Shirai Ryu, he took several of his old Christmas decorations with him. He hasn't touched them since
💨 Tomás Vrbada 💨
Tomás has... a complicated relationship with Christmas
On one hand, he has so many positive memories (both secular and religious) with his birth parents and sister during Christmas time... On the other hand he has so many positive memories of people that are no longer in his life
Regardless of how he feels, he tries really hard not to let his upsetment show. Whenever Kuai Liang asks him to bake with him or to build a snowman, Tomás always says yes. He doesn't want to bring anyone else down because of him
Tomás likes to watch Christmas cartoons like Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red Noses Reindeer. His absolute favorite Christmas cartoon is The Year Without A Santa Claus. He relates to how depressed Santa is.
Though he typically tries to avoid Bi-Han during the holiday season (why get kicked while he's already down?), sometimes he'll ask if he can sit with Bi-Han while he's watching a Christmas movie. That's the most time that they spend with each other without yelling at each other the whole year
⚙️ Sektor ⚙️
CHRISTMAS. HATER. An absolute Scrooge
There were too many times in the past where she was let down by her mother and father during Christmas time, so now she just hates everything associated with the season
She locks herself in the Armory, working on things she doesn't need to be working on in order to distract herself. She barely sleeps, she barely eats, it's mildly concerning how consumed she is by her work
Bi-Han recognizes that Sektor needs her space and tries to respect that as much as possible, but he still gets worried when she doesn't leave the shop for more than a week. Sareena will go into the Armory and pester Sektor all day, asking questions about different Christmas things until Sektor kicks her out
The only day that Sektor is somewhat present is Christmas Day. She will go sit with everyone while they open gifts, sipping her coffee as she soaks in as much of the moment as she is emotionally able to
🐝 Cyrax 🐝
Cyrax likes both the religious and secular aspects of Christmas. She is a Catholic, so she sets up a little nativity scene in her room every year
Being from Nigeria, she has a lot of traditions that she brings into the Lin Kuei from the Zaki. One such tradition is going on an annual hunt and competing to see who can kill the largest animal within an allotted time. The winner is blessed with good luck for the upcoming year and their catch is served at Christmas dinner
Kuai Liang LOVES this tradition and competes with Cyrax yearly. He has yet to beat her. In fact the only person that was able to beat Cyrax's time and kill was Sareena, who managed to bring down an Ice Beast within ten minutes
When Cyrax and Kuai Liang dated, they spent a lot of time walking in the woods and looking at all the tracks in the snow. This was also an excuse for Cyrax to cuddle close to Kuai to stave off the cold
Will often join Kuai Liang in his quest to cheer up Tomás, but she is also very aware of if Tomás is not in the mood and will back away. She often has to remind Kuai Liang to not be too forceful when he's trying to help
😈 Sareena 😈
LOVES CHRISTMAS!!! I mean, who wouldn't after being trapped in the NetherRealm with a perverted old Sorcerer for centuries?
She especially loves to decorate the palace in bright lights. Instead of using candles, she wants to go to the store and buy actual electric bulbs (not realizing that the Lin Kuei palace doesn't have electricity... But Sektor would figure out a way to make them work). She spends time untangling the lights every year and gets tangled up every time
She has a lot of questions about Christmas. "Who is Santa Claus? How does he see us when we're sleeping? Is he a sorcerer? How does he fit down the chimney? How does he not set himself on fire when he's in the chimney and the fire is lit?..." Bi-Han started ignoring her after continuously answering her questions for three hours
Is addicted to eggnog and actually enjoys Kuai Liang's burnt cookies
She's very bad at gift giving. One year she gave Bi-Han and Sektor each a dead rabbit. She didn't wrap them either, so their chamber smelled really bad for a couple of days and Sektor and Bi-Han had no idea what was causing the smell. Meanwhile, Sareena's looking mischievous in the corner and thinking "Hehehe they'll never guess what their gifts are! ;)"
The news of his death in both the Original and Alternate Timelines weighs heavily on Kung Lao's mind... As does the fact that Original and Alternate Raiden are demi-gods. His dour mood only intensifies when Raiden is selected by General Blade to join the Kombat Kids on their mission to the Charred Mountains.
It is fortunate that Raiden is far too innocent to recognize his boyfriend's concern for what it truly is...
Takeda proposes a solution on how to fix the rifts... Lore from across the dimensions is unlocked and a potential hero is revealed.
(Johnny also learns how annoying his counterparts (and himself) can be, but then again, Sonya and Jax have been telling him that for years so he really shouldn't be that surprised 😅)
After spending days in talks with the President, the Department of Defense and the Special Forces decide to post publicly about the earthquake and the mysterious "anomalies" that have begun appearing all over the world.
With three timelines merging into one, a new world is being forged and the future is no longer certain...
(notes: Wang Fenyun [genderbent Fujin] is Raiden's sister from Fire God Liu Kang's timeline || @BLaCKPInKMWAH59, @poocoochie, @wallacejones539, @ritaquarius & @brandonjo610 are all kharacters I created || Kai's profile photo is fan art created by Fezat [@Fztr] on Twitter)
As the Special Forces begin to deal with the aftermath of the Timequake, it is up to Johnny Cage to locate and bring his New Era counterpart to Desert Command for questioning.
...this is obviously easier said than done. 🥴

Jin's been out of the loop ever since he got sent to Outworld to be the Wu Shi's Liaison... Needless to say, he's not too happy when the Timequake strikes 🙇🏽
But good news! Sonya Blade survived the Bone Temple collapse! Man it sure would have been tragic if something bad had happened to her, am I right? 😅
(I have discovered the Twitter Post Generator. I am now unstoppable.)
In other news, the New Era, the Alternate Timeline, and the Original Timeline have all merged together due to Kronika's timequake... This does not bode well...
