Since internet has take over our lives, connected people and made a different lifestyle, the PC users seemed disapointed with MK's dis-availability on Personal Computers... So today an excellent idea came into my mind...
Mortal Kombat Empire (as name, or something similar).

some races...
(Earth People, Outworlders, Kitana's Slaves, Shao's Minions, Elder Gods [maybe the admins will be the Elder Gods])
Sex selection:
Male,Female

Face:
Some humanoid, evil, divine faces, elementals or something

Hairstyle:
Black, Red, Pink, Yellow, Blonde, Red...blah blah

Facial Style:
Beard, Mustache etc.

Body pierching...

Tattos (ex. Race Sign, MK dragon, Kung Fu Sing etc.)

Clothing is not an option from the beggining.
(each must start naked... or with some basic armory)

Body size, height (155cm-205cm)
Body structure: at the beggining skinny but with praktice it will be more
killing machine.

Blood, decapitation & other stuff must exist

Based on the path of each race.... there must be some skills, abilities, special moves, fighting styles (Kung Fu, Shaolin)

Five races into a world map witch includes, earth, outworld, nether realm and a lot more realms.. wink (seems kool)

Npc's such as sellers, armor or weapon crafters, Quest offerers, Trainers and lot lot more are coming into my mind from the time i begun to thing about it...

In the beggining of each character's carrier a training is kewl to be. (Shaolin Temple, or Shang Tsung's Castle)
This will give the opportunity to select and follow 1 or more fighting styles.. or weapon masteries.
For advancing and learn new stuff the player must pass through some tests for his level. [Like Quests or something]

The killable npc's must be humanoids or Outworld's creatures from Shao Kahn's army...

Players can create Clans, alliances, parties, raids clan attacks, ally attacks, intrude to other Realms or even face the "Shao Kahn" witch has to be very very strong even for 10 people.

Leveling will be done with killing npc's, doing quests, assasinations assault, thiefts and other style of missions.
Ranks will also must increase based on level..
(ex. 1-10 Student of Shaolin Monks, after a test with a monk will get another rank like, trainer, or something, on 11-20)

After some levels with the body condition like the muscles will pump a little bit based on praktise.

Buying a house is an option, sleeping is a need in MMORPG to be more realistic... it's impossible a player to fight 24h/day (or more hours if it's in Outworld)

Each week on a very special day.... Shao Kahn's army will attack a realm... the admins must announce (or set in a timeline where will that be or when)..

There must be also realms witch races fight each other and get them self a rank in the Hall Of Fame of MK-Empire.
Through body to body or weapon fights.

Weapons such as Claws, Fists, Daggers, Axes, Swords, Bows must exist [this will give an advantage but only for some period not for full use...]
Weapons has to be crafted, repairable, upgradeable, drops from bosses.

Each armor has to be nice (optically) and fit to all races, with some attributes like (230 defence, +2% to HP, +13 walking/running speed, +12 flying movement skills)
[It will be better if every armor follows a standar color based on player's race and choice]
[The color must be chosen from the player during crafting or upgrading, no re-color option]
[If the drop is from boss when the player equips it will be same color with player's already equiped items]

Armors has to be drops by bosses, or from events, also crafted, with materials collected from leveling personalize option [Put a mark on it to say who was the crafter/owner, something]
(repairable, upgradeable are kool options)

Some classes exist into my mind for all races
Thiefs, Assassins, Magicians (will also learn melee attacks like everyone else).

PvP will be allowed with anyone and everyone...

State will be modified from the actions of each player (if he is good with his race, loyal, or something else)

If someone dies he will lose some of his level progress and will be able to lose a level and maybe lose a Grade and have to repass (less) tests.

Finishing moves will be learned during Tests.

Hero of a Class must exist... long time after each server's existance each class has to fight with everyone from his class into a 1 vs 1 arena to get the hero.

Must be available for PC, PS2, Xbox, GameCube and has to be on internet of course.
Lot of things are into my mind right now and i can't type-em all
I hope this idea will give you some ideas and i hope to see it and play it in the future.

Dedicated to MK idea, Creators, Boon & Tobias and all the team, also to Midway who offered us this really joyfull series.
Everyone of us has played, enjoyed, competed in MK for lot of hours/day days/week weeks/month month/year.
You do a really good job for players, gaming science, and expand of Human's brain limits.
Sorry if my english are kind of wrong, i'm from Greece and i never went to english school.

Trully yours,
Chris (aka MoDuL)

If you think you are the one
play gently... but fight like a man.
Two phrases is the only thing i can say:
There's only 2 ways to get out alive..
And there isn't any hardway option available.

leveling down if you die is a really really bad idea, i can understand losing some stuff in your inventory but leveling down would be dumb. and there has to be a ninja class.
