Ten: Boss Character - Gill
Character Select:
When highlighted, Gill walks forward and stops, his arms folded across his chest. When chosen, he faces his opponent and conjures a ball of ice (or flame, depending on which player he is) before dismissing it and walking away. Gill's goal is to stop the fighting and usher in a new utopia in the realms. In an interesting twist, Vera Briggs (Jax's wife) and Erica Blade (Sonya's mother) are Illuminati members, a secret kept from their respective loved ones. Kenshi also knows Gill, as it was Gill who had rescued him from the Red Dragon (following the events of the MKX comic), and he knows the secrets of the Mediterranean warrior cult (of which Johnny and Cassie are descended from).
Intro:
If Gill speaks first, he approaches, his body covered in fire and ice. If he speaks second, then he is reading a book, of which he hands off to Kolin, his secretary, who bows and walks off.
Costumes:
1. Illuminati Emperor: Gill's default costume.
2. Yin and Yang: Gill's colors are black and white.
3. S.I.N.: Seth's formal attire from SF4 (not tattered)
4. Warrior: Gill, without the red and blue color scheme.
Variations:
1. Fire and Ice: Gill's SF3 moveset.
X-Ray:
Wrath of the Emperor - Gill smashes into the opponent shoulder first, stunning them. He then performs a powerbomb, which breaks their back. Then he performs the Moonsault Knee Drop, breaking the ribs. Flipping back to his feet, Gill summons a ball of ice (or fire, depending on where he's facing) and drops it on the opponent's head, breaking their skull.
Fatalities:
Seraphic Wing - Gill floats to the center of the ring. "Let me be the blesser of souls!" Six white wings emerge from his back and waves of multi-colored energy erupt from his body, turning the opponent into nothing but a skeleton.
Meteor Rain - Gill summons a barrage of ice and fire, reducing the opponent into bloody chunks similar to Regime Superman's Ice and Fire fatality.
Ending:
(Shots of the events seen in Mortal Kombat X, as Gill observes while on his throne)
The intrigue and violence of the realms has greatly concerned Gill. Without any type of intervention, Armageddon would be all but inevitable. Following Raiden's corruption, Gill is forced to intervene.
(Shot of Gill hovering over the Kombatants, who kneel before him)
Neither Earthrealm, Outworld or the Netherrealm could put up a defense against the might of Gill. Tired of the countless battles and wars, the realms surrender.
(Shot of Gill leading the Kombatants to their destiny under his rule)
With the realms under his control, Gill creates the perfect utopia. Under his rule, there is no fighting, no war, no suffering. Peace has finally come to the realms.
Win Pose:
Gill turns from the fallen opponent and faces Kolin and several Illuminati men, who kneel before him. "I am your god."
