The Plague

From: Hobo With A Shotgun

Bio:

The Plague, a duo of killers said to be demons, it is unknown where they come from, all that is know is that they're more feared than any of killers ever. After one of the Plague, Grinder, was killed while on a job involving a hobo with a shotgun in Canada, the last remaining member of the Plague, RIP, was forced to work by himself, waiting to be summoned. That time came when Shao Khan's armies invaded Earthrealm as a unknown party requested RIP to kill Shao Khan, with the order to kill anyone who gets in his way. Now with his former partner's weapons along with his, RIP is ready to show why he's called The Plague.

Normal Costume:

RIP's "Hobo With A Shotgun" appearance, only more detailed and has a couple rope nooses around his waist.

Alternative Costume:

None

Throws

Forward Throw: The Plague grabs the opponent by the neck with one hand and slashes their chest with his giant blade three times before throwing them down in front of him.
Backwards Throw: The Plague grabs the opponent by the neck with one hand and slashes their chest with his giant blade three times before throwing them behind him hard.

Special Moves:

Harpoon Shot: The Plague takes out Grinder's harpoon gun and fires it at the opponent's chest, knocking them back. (Enhanced Version is called "Harpoon Pull", with the noose around his hand, the other end tied to the harpoon, after the harpoon hits, The Plague pulls the opponent towards him, leaving them open for a free hit.)
Sharp Pain: The Plague grabs the opponent stabs his opponent with his blade before throwing them down. (Enhanced Version is called "Stabbing Pain", after the blade connects, he thrusts it in more before kicking the opponent away.)
Ripper Fist Slam: The Plague swings his fist down onto the opponent, knocking them down. (Enhanced Version is called "Grinding Fist Punch", after connecting the hit, it knock onto their knees to which he punches them hard across the face.)
Thrusting Kick: The Plague gives a devastating kick to the chest of the opponent, knocking them hard on their back. (Enhanced Version is called "Plague Kick", after the kick, he quickly stabs down into the opponent's stomach as they're on the ground before pulling it out.
Blade Slash: The Plague uppercuts his opponent with his blade. (Enhanced Version is called "Blade Bash", after the first upswing, The Plague slams the opponent back down with his blade.
Unstoppable: The Plague cracks his neck and gains a damage boost, but he is unable to block. He glows purple while this is active. (Enhanced version is called "Juggernaut", it has a longer effect and grants a larger damage increase, but he is still unable to block. He glows red instead of purple.)

X-Ray Move:

Outbreak: The Plague charges at the opponent and grabs them by the neck, then slashes them upward with his blade, ripping their ribs open before impaling them in the stomach, piercing vital organs in the process before charging towards, the opponent still stuck on the blade, damaging them more before kicking them away.

Fatalities:

In Memory Of Grinder: The Plague takes his blade and slices their stomach open as guts falling out, then takes out a rope and noose attached to a harpoon, wraps it around the opponent's neck before loading the other end into the harpoon gun, then shoots up, hitting a apparent roof as the opponent is hung in their air before choking to death.
Manhole Decapitation: The Plague takes out a manhole cover and barbed wire noose before putting it around the opponent's neck, then gets on his motorcycle, with the barbed wired tied to the end of it and rides off, ripping their head off in the process, the manhole cover still stuck on their body.

Voice Actor:

Nick Bateman

Babality:

The Plague laughs a bit and gets on a tricycle version of his motorcycle and rides it around.

Battle Intro:

A Grindhouse filter appears over the screen as The Plague rides onto the battlefield on his motorcycle and gets off, with his blade in hand and swings it around being ready to fight.

Win pose:

The Grindhouse filter comes back as the camera zooms up to The Plague who grabs the camera, wraps one of his nooses around it, loads it and the harpoon before shooting up, hanging the camera as he says "You were not worth it."

Ending:

Shao Khan fell against The Plague, as RIP hung his corpse for all of Outworld to see. Many had fallen as he fought on, without mercy. RIP then approached the man who summoned him, who happened to be the fallen Elder God, Shinnok. Thankful for his services for getting rid of the Forces Of Light, he then ordered the Death of The Plague. But what Shinnok didn't know was the powerful influence the man he ordered to death had on Mileena and Kano, Shinnok will now learn to never betray The Plague.
I recently saw the movie "Hobo With A Shotgun" and thought it was one of the coolest movies of all time and the Plague in it was so badass! So why not?

Just so you ain't confused, while in the bio and ending, he's called by the name RIP, i will be mostly referring to him as the Plague, deal with it.
