Saw the MK movie this weekend, I’ll give my thoughts on it later but I wanted to share this drawing I did of Johnny and Zebron. Johnny is one of my favorites in the series so wanted to do an art piece in honor of the movie. I combined multiple iterations of Johnny Cage when drawing him. Overall I’m really happy with what I created. I’m still new to drawing backgrounds but this is the Cage Mansion but I’ll get better.

Humora

A Wolf Eukaryonite who was once a kind and caring mother whose life took a turn for the worse. Humora grew up in the capital of Eukaryona; Nuclearis, where most of more notable Eukaryonites were born at.

Before Cerveras went mad, Humora was a Mask designer in Eukaryona who made masks for other Eukaryonites. During her job she would have met the former love of her life Wade.

At the time Wade needed some mask designs to make teach students about the coronation of Queen Apalla. Overtime Humora and Wade had spent some time together where they bonded with love and eventually became a mother.

Humora aspired to be a great mother and worked hard to provide for her family. Wade however felt jealous of his children as he noticed them taking away the attention.

Humora still loved Wade, but unfortunately she would find out that he no longer felt the same way. she caught her husband and his mistress one day after they had a fling. Humora was devastated that Wade would betray her like he did and pursued a divorce.

King Cerveras and Queen Apalla put him on trial but he later escaped. Unfortunately around this time Queen Apalla had died, and Humora witnessed a shift in her king.

Humora immediately helped with the evacuation as she rescued her kids from the school and several of their classmates.

As she nearly made it to the shoreline she was ambushed by corrupted Eukaryonites. she bought time for the children to escape as she noticed the remaining Eukaryona helping with evac.

Sadly she was corrupted by Dr.Stifle who infected her with the corruption that corrupted many of the carnivorous Eukaryonites. Even when corrupted, her love for her children was strong. She attempted to take them but Zebron and his father stopped her. she broke Zebron’s wand but before she could kill him, Zebrak attacked her blinding her.

She was treated by Dr.Stifle who became the new doctor of Eukaryona who enhanced her other senses. She then crafted her own mask to hide her affliction and represent who she once was, a facade to her greatest failure, losing her children.

King Cerveras uses her love for her children as manipulation to get what he wants; loyalty. She will serve King Cerveras in the hopes of reuniting with her kids Freddy and Fiona.

Even after King Cerveras died, Humora still joined the Claw of Cerveras. She joined not because of loyalty but to locate her children and reunite with them. She was angry to know that Zebron had been successful in his wand being restored, it’s only a matter of time until she puts an end to him and find her children. Though perhaps one day she may be freed from her corruption and become the loving mother she once was.

Gazira

Compared to Zebron who had a family and friends, Gazira was orphaned and abandoned in Eukaryona. It didn’t help when her teacher Wade didn’t help her when she needed extra support. She chose to live alone knowing that everyone would deny her after Wade embarrassed her.

To make matters worse she was constantly neglected seeing others such as Zebron with friends. Zebron himself wanted to help her but she didn’t want his help, she didn’t need his pity.

Unfortunately when the peaceful Eukaryonites fled the kingdom, no one looked for her and she was abandoned in the wilderness.

Shortly after Lunara betrayed her friends and allied with King Cerveras, Lunara would find her. Seeing the young gazelle abandoned and mistreated reminded her of herself. Lunara would extend her hand and Cerveras was willing to take her in if she proved her loyalty.

Gazira was eager to undergo training and be accepted. She would then become part of Cerveras’ most loyal allies. Her bitterness toward Zebron was how he had everything Gazira wanted, stable friendships, a family, and was well liked. She was jealous that he had his wand to impress many in the kingdom while she had nothing. She desperately wanted the love and admiration Zebron had because she was alone.

However while on a supply run with some of the other loyalists in Eukaryona, she had found an ancient staff, the fabled Exo-lemental Staff, the dark counterpart to the Endo-Arcane Wand. The staff uses the external energies using the elements of nature surrounding the user.

Once she masters her staff, she hopes to battle Zebron to earn the approval of her monarchs, belong to her new family, and claim everything from Zebron.

Wade

A Eukaryonite Wolf who was a former teacher of Zebron and hid a secret. That secret being he had an affair with his wife that caused significant outrage within the kingdom.

There was a time when he and his wife loved each other, even decided to become a father as well. Over time the both of them had been busy with his wife dedicating most of her time to her children.

Wade had no intentions of connecting with his children, and secretly blamed them for the diminishing romance between the couple. Overtime he got more annoyed and desired to have more excitement in his life. This in turn diminished his main strength teaching.

Wade was a decent teacher at one point, but he got worse and favored two of his students based on the high status of their parents. he always favored the them despite them harassing and bullying the others including Zebron.

He never believed him especially when he told Wade what was happening. He was delusional believing he was more important than the likes of Lunara constantly making fun of her and ruining her gardens. That was until one day he had a secret infidelity with Wyatt’s mother.

The mother wanted a solution to stop the bullying of her son, her no nonsense attitude caused a spark to happen. The mother as well was unhappy with her previous marriage and the two of them kept a secret relationship.

Eventually his secret was exposed and he would be punished but quickly escaped while he abandoned his mistress. Not only did he run away from his family and students but ruined Wyatt’s life as he became an orphaned when his mother was arrested for the infidelity with Wade.

When Eukaryona fell, he fled to the farm of Maahes. He still caused problems with Lunara and she used his infidelity as a weapon against him. This was the final straw for Lunara as she wanted to teach everyone who wronged her a lesson.

Ultimately Lunara would not have betrayed Maahes if he had listened to her but her pride got in the way. Though He wouldn’t be corrupted, King Cerveras forced him into harsh labor after he conquered Maahes’ farm. Serving as a harsh reminder to never escape the justice system of King Cerveras. Wade and his mistress reunited, he would undergo some training though is consider a weak fighter by many.

After the death of his monarch he was forced to serve his queen under her new group of loyalists; the claw of Cerveras. He would take on the role of an advisor searching for backgrounds of his enemies. Though often times he fails at his task and is useful in a twisted sense of keeping the stronger members alive.

Wade is an example how one’s own pride can cause their own downfall.

Notes: This is one of Three characters I attempted to make into an unlikable character.

Notes: I was inspired by MK 11 Sindel, as much as I did not like that rendition of Sindel. I did like the idea of an evil female queen, so I created Lunara as a result.

Notes: If you noticed his appearance he actually pays homage to the wwe wrestler the late Bray Wyatt. I grew up watching it and he was one of favorites growing up so I wanted to make a character based on his gimmick. At the time of writing scripts for my fic He was nearly removed after the actual death of Bray Wyatt. After Watching his documentary when I was at a difficult time in my life in 2024, I was inspired to bring this character back as an homage to him.
