I made this Character FAQ for those players that wish to just print out a
short move listing for the two Smoke Characters in the Mortal Kombat Trilogy
Game. The guide is split into two sections covering Cyber-Smoke, and then
Human Smoke, their attacks, finishing moves, combos and then the ending movie.
Smoke, Unit LK-7T2, is the third prototype cyber-ninja built by the Lin
Kuei. He tries to escape the Lin Kuei automation process with Sub-Zero but is
captured. His memories are stripped away, leaving behind an emotionless
killer. However, Sub-Zero believes that somewhere in this machine is a human
soul trying to escape.
-=Player Synopsis for Cyber Smoke=-
-----------------------------------
Cyber-Smoke has many qualities that make him a top-notch player. His speed
in the Teleport uppercut/Harpoon Combo, should place him at the top of the
list. But, his speed is overlooked for the basic opponent stopping that
Sub-Zero holds.
Playing against Cyber Smoke, is fairly easy as long as you block his
Teleport Uppercut, you can counter uppercut him into submission. Watch for
cheap corner throws, which he'll constantly perform over and over until he
wins the match.
Smoke was once a friend and ally of Sub-Zero when they both tried to escape
from being turned into machines by their ninja clan. But Smoke is captured
and transformed into a cyborg with a mission to find and kill his own
partner. But Smoke soon finds himself being persued by Shao Kahn's minions.
He finds he still has a soul and his true mission if the destruction of the
Outworld invaders.
He defeats Kahn and saves the world, but is forever trapped in his
artificial body.
------------------------
-Section 3: Human Smoke-
------------------------
In his human form, Smoke was a lethal assassin working for the Lin Kuei.
But when they decided to automate their ninjas, Smoke is caught in the
middle. He became a cyborg assassin, whose human form would exist as a memory
forever more.

-=Players Synopsis for Human Smoke=-
------------------------------------
He plays exactly as Scorpion does, use his teleport/spear combo at will,
and decimate your opponents. One of his best combos, will be the jump kick,
teleport punch, spear, 4 hit combo.
Playing against him, be sure to block his teleport attacks, and spear, and
then rush him with whatever you've got. Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, and
Cyber Smoke are best suited to take him out.
Before his transformation into a cybernetic ninja, Smoke was one of the Lin
Kuei's finest ninjas. It was during this time that he came to know his
greatest ally - Sub-Zero. When the Lin Kuei decided to automate their
warriors, the two attempted to escape. While Sub-Zero successfully eluded
capture, Smoke did not.
He would become a robotic nightmare, his soul trapped inside a living
machine. In his human form Smoke was a fierce warrior. In his mechanical body
he is even more lethal. But his true form is that of a human, one he'll know
again only in dreams.
