Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Unique Physiology: Tremor is a brown palleted ninja who has wide array of abilities. In later appearances in Mortal Kombat, he is known to be an Earth Elemental and an enforcer of the Black Dragon Clan.
    • Superhuman Strength: Tremor possesses extremely high levels of strength. He is able to shake the world with a single punch.
    • Superhuman Speed: Tremor has great speed, being able to move faster than the speed of sound.
    • Superhuman Agility
    • Superhuman Durability
    • Superhuman Endurance: Tremor can tolerate even the greatest amounts of physical pain and stand up no problem after that.
    • Regenerative Healing Factor: Tremor can heal from wounds or injuries very quickly.
    • Invulnerability: With Tremor's stoned chest and arms, he is nearly invulnerable to even the strongest of attacks.
  • Elemental Magic: Debuting as a brown palette-swap ninja with immense strength, Tremor's power came from his superhuman strength, allowing him to shake the Earth and damage his opponents. Additionally, he was able to summon fireball projectiles at his opponent. Starting in the Mortal Kombat X Comics and later in Mortal Kombat X, Tremor's power and abilities are greatly expanded on, depicting the Black Dragon enforcer as an Earth Elemental. While retaining his original abilities and traits of disrupting the Earth beneath him and others, Tremor's powers now affect other elements of the Earth. Not only is he able to summon rocks or enhance himself with rock formations on his body, Tremor has full control over other minerals such as golds, crystals, and magma, even to the point that Tremor is unaffected by the molten rock when it makes contact with his body. Tremor's control over these minerals is so deadly that he can even turn his opponents to stone, crystallize their body, turn them into gold or burn them to a crisp with magma. In addition to his expanded abilities, Tremor's body is now coated in rock. His chest and arms are completely covered in stone, to the point that the formations have become is actual skin. Additionally, Tremor can use the formations just as he does with the Earth itself, forming rock from his bare hands and even changing them into weapons for him to use. With his manipulation of other minerals of the Earth, Tremor's rock skin can also change to gold, crystal and even magma, with the formations of molten rock causing no harm to his being. He is able to alter how his rock skin works, allowing him to change his fighting style to fight anyone that steps up to challenge Tremor.
