There, he would return as a human ninja once more, now defined by the hair-like smoke that engulfed his head. In Mortal Kombat III, he became a cyborg assassin along with fellow Lin Kuei warriors Sektor and Cyrax, and he would remain this way until the series was rebooted in Mortal Kombat (2011). He first appeared as a secret character in 1993’s Mortal Kombat II, where players could challenge him in a similar vein to Reptile in the original game.Īt first, Smoke was simply one of the many palette swaps of series mainstays Scorpion and Sub-Zero, trading their standard fire and ice powers for smoke and extreme speed, but over time he would take on a look and identity of his own.

Smoke, real name Tomas Vrbada, is a former member of Sub-Zero’s Lin Kuei clan. The warriors of Mortal Kombat have gone through many evolutions over the years, as illustrated by one fan’s depiction of resident assassin Smoke shifting between his classic and modern appearances in a brief animation.
