Sonya Blade

Information
''"General Sonya Blade has been through a lot since helping Raiden defeat the Netherrealm and Shinnok 25 years ago, including marriage to action hero Johnny Cage, with whom she had a daughter. But parenting was not Sonya's strong suit. Her commitment to her career and difficulty opening up emotionally led to their split five years ago. Now faced with possible renewed hostilities with Outworld, Sonya must confront her past by working with her estranged family." - Mortal Kombat X''

Fighting Style
Along with her pragmatic and agile military training and heavy involvement of master gymnastics within her fighting style, Sonya inexplicably has minor control over a harmful pink energy. In MKX, her Covert Ops variation relies on her traditional moves and a garrote wire, her Demolition variation gives her an explosive arsenal, and her Special Forces variation gives her a controllable drone to help her in fights. She also wielded Kali Sticks in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance and Armageddon.

Alternate Costumes
In Deadly Alliance and Armageddon, Sonya's attire is replaced with a full-body khaki military dress and an olive beret. In Mortal Kombat 9, Sonya instead dons a white tank-top, black bandolier, olive gloves, matching shorts, and knee-high brown combat boots. In MKX, Sonya's alternate costumes include her traditional tight green sports attire and black bandana, her default clothing from MK9, and light olive winter clothing with a black ushanka and band-aid on her nose.
