Hotaru is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series.
About HotaruThe name is Japanese for firefly, which his outfit reflects, having the appearance of an insect's exoskeleton. His special attacks evoke a firefly's glow and power of flight. Hotaru is a hero from the realm of Seido or Orderrealm, and devotes himself to preserving law and order at any cost, so much so that he could be described as a zealot.StorylineAt one point, Hotaru had ventured into Outworld to confront Shao Kahn's Tarkatan armies, who were laying siege to the city of Lei Chen. Years later, however, those same forces, would be under the command of Onaga (the Dragon King). Believing that this newly resurrected ruler would bring order to the universe, he aids Onaga's hordes in their attacks and pursues those who would stand against them, such as Sub-Zero. At the time of Deception, Hotaru has set out to bring the Lin Kuei Grandmaster to justice before Onaga.He is, however, unaware that a bounty has been placed on his own head. In the past, Hotaru had served as a guardsman for Dairou while he was incarcerated; the latter now is under contract to murder him. Possible futureHotaru is present in several of ''MKDs ending scenarios. His own ending sees him successful in his goal, and murdering Sub-Zero, while Kenshi's ending depicts the blind swordsman slicing him in half from behind. He perishes as well in Dairou's ending, the mercenary having completed his mission. Ultimately, Hotaru's future will be revealed, as he will appear in the upcoming '.Fatalities and Hara-Kiri
