Kia (Mortal Kombat)

""Well, he is definelt a mortal. His soul is still contained inside his body.""

- - Kia after she spotted the elder Sub-Zero (Noob Saibot).

Kia is one of the sub-bosses in the Pyramid of Shinnok in the game Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero and also a member of the Brotherhood of Shadows. She is one of three assassins serving under Quan Chi and Shinnok, along with Sareena and Jataaka.

They each protected a crystal which, when combined together, allowed access to a teleportation device that sent the elder Sub-Zero to Quan Chi's throne room.

Judging from Sareena's story, she also may be a demon from the Netherrealm using Quan Chi's magic to sustain her attractive human form. Kia fights using razor-sharp boomerang blades. She was defeated by the elder Sub-Zero.

Kia was portrayed in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero by Kerri Hoskins, who also played Sonya Blade in Mortal Kombat 3.

Along with Sareena and Jataaka, she makes a reappearance in Konquest mode of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, still serving Quan Chi. Together they battle Taven in the Red Dragon's lair, but are defeated.
