The many designs of King Jerrod

Just watched the new trailer for the second live action movie this year. It was curious to watch more of this continuity's version of Edenia. I am interested in it, especially its aesthetics.

Now, we see a bit more of this continuity's version of Jerrod, who is about to get killed like any good version of Jerrod lmao. And I just felt like taking the chance to make a compilation of this man's designs (the ones I am aware of, at least).

Here are his designs from the MK9-MK11 timeline, the Malibu comics, Defenders of the Realm, the New Era and MK2, in that order.

Also, hi, Queen Sindel 👋

I must say, I still think he lacks a great design, one that makes me go 'Holy shit, I wish this was him every continuity!'. In the new movie in particular, I am just not a fan of his crown or the colors they've chosen for him.

(MK1/12) Kitana and Mileena Headcanons

Kitana:

-Kitana likes Raiden but doesn’t want to pursue a relationship because of their different lifespans.

-She was unintentionally compared to her sister because she wasn’t as interested in combat and was weaker than Mileena.

-She had a small crush on Liu Kang for a couple of years (nothing came of it).

-Kitana is interested in traveling to Earthrealm and experiencing the culture, especially after watching some movies Johnny recommended.

-Kitana chose the fan as her weapon because it matched her more defensive fighting style, but added the blades on the ends for offensive purposes.

-She is very apprehensive of Tanya because she comforted and helped Mileena through her breakups. Kitana sees how much her sister loves Tanya and doesn’t want to see her get it hurt.

-After Jerrod’s death, Kitana became the mediator of Sindel and Mileena’s arguments. She often wonders how he did it so well.

-Her and Sindel had a closer relationship because there was no pressure to train Kitana to be the next Empress and their different personalities matched well. They would often have tea or plant flowers in the gardens.

-The idea of Kitana being Empress became more favorable after her frequent visits to the cities and helping citizens when needed. Her compassion became well renowned.

-As children, Mileena would call her “Kitty”.

Mileena:

-Along with Li Mei, Mileena was trained by General Shao since their brutal fighting styles matched. The two were close when Mileena was a child and young teen but it faded when Shao grew resentful towards Sindel and Jerrod’s rule.

-She’s had multiple secret affairs throughout her teens and early adulthood. They usually ended after Mileena learned she was being taken advantage of or a mutual break up because betrothment was not possible.

-Mileena was a troublemaker and would sneak out multiple times without anyone knowing until she contracted Tarkat from one of those outings.

-Her relationship with Tanya began after Jerrod’s death and Tanya comforted her during the grieving process.

-Mileena came out to Kitana first since she trusted her sister would be there for her and not tell their parents before she did. Kitana and Mileena hugged and the former told her that nothing would break their sisterly bond. She was nervous about coming out to her parents because she didn’t want them to view her differently and the idea of producing an heir weighed heavy on her. She was happy when they assured her that they still love her and nothing would change that. Mileena cried during both instances.

-Mileena chose the sai as her weapon since it matched her aggressive fighting style and made her focus on defensive fighting.

-Mileena chose Kitana to replace Shao because of her sister’s compassion and wish to unite Outworld, something Shao lacked.

-Her and Jerrod had a closer relationship because she could vent to her father about her worries and frustrations with being the future empress without judgment. They also spent time walking in the gardens and having picnics.

-After Sindel started training Mileena, their relationship soured since it became the basis of it and led to many disagreements.

-As children, Kitana would call her “Milly”.

Mirror Jerrod/TR Jerrod Bio

Husband of Queen Sindel, King Jerrod is just as respected and feared as a key figure of the Edenian Regime as his wife. As a born noble of Edenia, Jerrod was raised to have absolute loyalty towards the Edenian Regime’s ideals and fight to enforce its laws in the due time, but that’s far from the only reason for his current devotion to the Regime.

The strict lifestyles of Edenian nobles caused Jerrod’s family to be distant from him during his first years, either because they had duties to fulfill or because they wanted Jerrod to be fully focused in his training and education. Jerrod was an obedient kid and never complained about his education, but it was a fact that he was never close to his family. He instead grew close to his personal guards and instructors in combat.

All veteran Edenian Knights who had decided to instruct the next generation after retirement. While also strict, as expected from Edenian Regime’s soldiers, they were also willing to expend some time with the young Jerrod outside of training, let him express his thoughts and the doubts he would inevitably develop due to all his responsibilities, and try to guide him in the best way in aspects outside of combat. Jerrod was always thankful towards them for that gesture, it made their loss incredibly painful.

When Jerrod was still too young to defend himself in a real battle, his region was among the territories within Edenia targeted by the forces of the cruel warlord Drahmin. When his home was attacked, Jerrod and his family were forced to escape, something which was only possible thanks to his guard’s sacrifice, who fought Drahmin’s soldiers as they ran away.

That loss motivated Jerrod. Once Drahmin and his forces were defeated and he was able to return home, he vowed to become the best enforcer of the Regime he could be, to honor his instructors’ life and to protect his home. It also increased his disgust towards other realms, (which was already there as part of the Regime’s doctrine), Outworld especially.

With effort, Jerrod grew and became a powerful warrior and a skillful leader, enough to be chosen to assist the young Princess Sindel in the fulfillment of her duties. During their time together, Sindel and Jerrod connected due to their similarities. They could notice how alone and stressed they felt due to their responsibilities, and admire their will to keep going forward despite those feelings. They grew closer each day, until their true feelings were clear. It didn’t take long for them to marry when they reached adulthood.

When Sindel ascended to the throne, Jerrod did it at her side. He knew of his wife’s intentions of starting the ‘pacification’, and had no doubts about fully supporting it. From his point of view, it was time for ‘underdeveloped societies’ to have ‘peace’ dictated to them, no matter the cost.

Finally had the time and motivation to write another bio! 😊

The rainbow in the background is a consequence of making this design in june lol
