Nitara

Nitara is a vampire. Her realm was merged with Outworld a long time ago. She was trying to separate her realm from Outworld. She found out, that an orb is keeping the two realms merged. That orb was under a thick layer of lava and Nitara could not access it.

After he found out, that Cyrax was in Outworld she conceived a plan. She would trick Cyrax to get the orb, because his body would withstand the lava. But Nitara knew, that Cyrax won't do it for free.

Nitara showed kindness to Reptile and after Shao Khan's death he decided to follow her. She ordered Reptile to attack Cyrax and damage his arm console.

With Cyrax's console damaged, he could not return to Earthrealm. Nitara approached Cyrax and offered him a deal. If Cyrax would get her the orb, then Nitara would send him back to Earthrealm. Cyrax agreed to the offer.

Cyrax entered the lava and returned with the orb. Nitara kept her promise and send Cyrax back to Earthrealm. After she did that, Nitara destroyed the orb and seperated her realm from Outworld.

She now protected the unstable realm. Soon she found out, that someone was killing vampires with a cursed blade. While searching for the power, which could destroy the blade, she met Ashrah. Ashrah was the one, who was killing the vampires with the blade. Nitara fought and beaten Ashrah and escaped to Edenia, where a great power was rumoured to be, which could destroy the blade.
