Sindel (also called '''Queen Sindel''' by her regal name), is a character in the '' Mortal Kombat '' Fighting Game series.


ABOUT SINDEL

Sindel is an exceptional character in the ''Mortal Kombat'' series (and in fighting games in general) in more than one way. She is a distinctly older and mature character, with flowing grey hair and a regal attitude befitting of her role as Queen of Edenia . Another factor that contributes to her uniqueness is the fact that at one point in the series, she was actually Undead . In spite of her gloomy, Gothic appearance, Sindel is benevolent in nature. She rules the realm of Edenia alongside her daughter, Princess Kitana . Sindel's power appears to be more one of an inner, ethereal nature, however, and she has a natural affinity with aerial magic, as evidenced by her ability to Levitate and manipulate Sonic waves.


MOVIE APPEARANCE

Sindel appeared in '''' and is eventually turned to the good side by Kitana. She is first believe to be the key to closing Shao Kahn 's portals to Earth, then her daughter is believed to be the key. She only has a limited role in the movie, and is noted for her cheesy lines of dialogue. When she is brought back to life, her change in alliances occurs, and she wears a symbolic white dress to denote this. She is portrayed by South African actress Musetta Vander .


FATALITIES

  • Star Scream: Sindel screams with such force that her opponent's skin rips off of its body and a skeleton covered in flesh remains (''MK3'').

  • Death Spin: Sindel wraps her opponent in her hair, then pulls it back quickly. The victim spins at an impossible speed, until bones and blood splurt out, leaving nothing behind (''MK3'').

  • Animality: Sindel turns into a neon purple wasp. She buzzes over to her opponent and repeatedly stings him/her in the neck until both disappear off the side of the screen. She then reappears in her human form (''MK3'').

  • Kwan Do Spin: Sindel tosses her opponent in the air above her, then pulls out her Kwan Do and begins twirling it in the air. As the opponent falls onto it, he/she is chopped up into pieces (''MK:D'').

  • Hara Kiri: Sindel gracefully leaps into the air and backflips, only to land (less gracefully) on her head, snapping her own neck, drawing blood (''MK:D'').



OTHER FINISHERS

  • Field Goal – She kicks a field goal and says "That Was Fun". ''(MK3, UMK3, MKT)''



TRIVIA
