Another Mortal Kombat character who appears in Mortal Kombat 9, or Mortal Kombat 2011, is Jade.
She debuted in Mortal Kombat II, as an unplayable character, but in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, fans of the series were able to access her.
Jade can be easily identified in all the Mortal Kombat video games, because she wears a green costume.
Since green is also the color of all Jade gemstones, we can assume that the character’s name is based on the unique property of these precious stones.
Jade is an Edenian character, but most important is the fact that she is Kitana’s best friend and Shao Khan’s personal assassin.
During her childhood, Jade spent most of her time with Kitana, because her parents were Edenian nobles and loyal servants to Queen Sindel and King Jerrod, the supreme rulers of Edenia, and Kitana’s parents.
Everything changed when Shao Khan invaded Edenia and killed King Jerrod. Sindel became Khan’s wife and Kitana his adopted child, while Jade continued his training as an assassin.
Later, side by side with Kitana and Mileena, Jade turned out to be one of the best assassins in Outworld.
In Mortal Kombat 9, players will observe that Jade is almost all the time near Kitana, just like Cyrax and Sektor.
Sometimes, players will have to fight both of them to advance in the game; however, the most important aspect in Jade’s story is that she must make a decision when Shao Khan sends her to kill Kitana.
Jade’s main weapon in Mortal Kombat 9 is a staff which helps her to execute powerful combo moves as well as an X-Ray Attack, called Staff Buster.
Below is a full list with all Jade’s special moves, including her finishing moves and tag combos. The guide also reveals how to perform Jades Half Mast secret fatality and her babality.
