Li Mei is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series.
About Li MeiLi Mei was introduced in as a variant of a well-known archetype in most fighting games: she is a girl/young woman fighting against a supreme crime organization or overlord who did her wrong and fights at impossible odds. She is something of a tragic hero.StorylineLi Mei's village that was forced into slavery to help construct Shang Tsung's palace around the soulnado, which had been a long-time legend of her people. In attacking Kano, however, she gained the attention of Quan Chi, who promised her freedom if she could win a tournament. Around this time she befriended an old warrior among her enslaved villiagers; the supposed "Champion of the Elder Gods" Shujinko, captured by Kano during his 40 year quest for the Kamidogu. Shujinko offered to train her even though he felt that her chances in the Deadly Alliance's "tournament" were slim. She later journeyed to a nearby forest were she was attacked by Moloch and Drahmin. She escaped through the trees as Shang Tsung came and formed an alliance with the Oni.In , Li Mei returned (most of the newly-introduced fighters did not). Though her ending in Deadly Alliance depicted her winning Quan Chi's tournament, and "winning" the right to be imprisoned forever in one of the Dragon King's soldiers' bodies, Deception had Bo' Rai Cho rescuing her from this fate. However, he was apparently only partially successful, and Li Mei took on some of the aspects of one of these ancient warriors. As such, she is far more battle-oriented in this game, wearing armor, for example. Possible futureThough Mortal Kombat endings are always highly variable, her ending in Deception showed her taking his side, thinking it was more likely to win, and turning against her former allies. Onaga is then successful in his schemes, and makes Li Mei his new queen. The truth of Li Mei's alignment will be revealed in the upcoming . Fatalities
