This one cares not for Earthrealm... and worships no gods.
~ D'Vorah to Raiden.

D'Vorah is a major antagonist in the Mortal Kombat: Titan Trilogy, both a reboot and spin-off of the Mortal Kombat franchise.

She is a major protagonist in the Mortal Kombat X comic series, one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Quan Chi) of Mortal Kombat X and a major antagonist in Mortal Kombat 11.

She is a Kytinn (a species of colonial insects living inside) that lives in Outworld and serves as Kotal Kahn's first minister until she betrays him for Shinnok and Quan Chi, to whom she is truly loyal. She later became a servant of Kronika, aiding her in remaking the universe with promises of reviving the Kytinn race.

She was voiced by Kelly Hu, who also played China White in ArrowMiss Mirimoto in Scooby-Doo! and the Samurai Sword and Lady Deathstrike in X2: X-Men United.

Biography[]

Hailing from the Arnyek Islands, D'Vorah's realm was conquered by Shao Kahn and she chose to serve the dark emperor to avoid becoming a slave. Rising in political power, D'Vorah now serves Kotal Kahn as his second in command and closest adviser, assisting him in the civil war against Mileena.

Mortal Kombat X[]

In the game, D'Vorah is first seen as Kotal Kahn First Minister, She helps Kotal with staving off Mileena's rebellion. D'Vorah is also seen in Kotal Kahn's carriage as he is discussing with Kano on Mileena's location. Later when Mileena launches a surprise attack D'Vorah helps Kotal and kills several Tarkatans in the process during Mileena's attempted assassination on Kotal's life. Initially, she was reluctant to accept Cassie and her team's help but eventually reluctantly did so under Kotal's command that they ally with the Earthrealm forces after Kung Jin bests him in combat. Cassie's team eventually learns about the location of Shinnok's amulet from Kano D'Vorah offers to head for the Jungle to retrieve Shinnok's amulet from Mileena. Although she insists on going alone, Cassie demands to go with her, to which D'Vorah complies.

Mortal Kombat 11[]

D'Vorah returns as a playable character in Mortal Kombat 11. She was revealed on February 5, 2019.

During the game's story mode, D'Vorah first appears at the end of Kotal Kahn's chapter; helping Shao Kahn and his men escape after Kotal and Raiden's group defeated them. Afterwards, she reveals that she killed Milleena, resulting Shao Kahn almost killing her. Kronika and Geras then arrive with the former warning Shao Kahn that D'Vorah is under her protection. 

Several chapters later, she attacks and briefly captures Kotal Kahn while in Outworld. Before she could finish him off, Jade beats her. She then threatens to kill her unless she provides them with information. Whether D'Vorah revealed information regarding Kronika is unknown.

Appearance[]

D'Vorah's physical appearance draws on several insect motifs. Her skin takes the appearance of a yellow chitinous hide with four wing/pincers jutting out from her back. The back of her head is adorned with black markings and her lips are naturally black.

On the heels of her feet are what looks like high heel wedges. Her eyes are compound, possessing the same fractured appearance as a fly's eyes. All of her teeth are sharp and pointed, exhibiting possible carnivorous eating habits.

D'Vorah wears a black top and hood, spiked gauntlets on her arms armored ringlets on her forearms, and armored shin guards. A single scarab-shaped piece of jewelry with a green centered gem rests around her neck.

Powers and Abilities[]

She is able to use bugs for a variety of purposes, from offensive attacking to sealing wounds. Her natural extra limbs give her give her lethal pincers to use in combat and allow her to fly to a degree.

Quotes[]

Filthy human! The hive will eat your tongue first!
~ D'Vorah to Cassie Cage
You belong in Earthrealm. You have no choice!
~ D'Vorah trying to make Erron Black leave Outworld
You will feed the hive.
~ D'Vorah to Jacqui
This one will enjoy your death.
~ D'Vorah to Johnny Cage
You waste your time with mortals.
~ D'Vorah to Raiden
You are brave despite the odds.
~ D'Vorah to Sonya Blade
Your weapons amuse this one.
~ D'Vorah to Jacqui
You repulse us hideous one.
~ D'Vorah to Kano
Your lack of judgment led you here.
~ D'Vorah to Mileena
As you suffer, we enjoy.
~ D'Vorah displaying her sadism.
Vermin. That is the humanoid word for the Kytinn and our fellow insectoids. But with the Hourglass, This One can review history and give lie to that myth. Humanoids live to kill. Without a common enemy to fight, they divide. Destroy each other. Insectoids live to survive. No conflicts divide us. We build upon each other. Kin does not kill kin. So tell this one... Who are the vermin? Time for this one to write a more just history. One in which pesky humanoids finally take the place they deserve... scrambling beneath our feet.
~ D'Vorah in her Mortal Kombat 11 ending

Trivia[]

  • D'Vorah is the fifth character with the ability to fly, the first four being Ermac, Sindel, Nitara and Onaga the Dragon King.
    • She is the third character to have wings, the first two being Nitara and Onaga.
    • She is the second female character to have wings, the first being Nitara.
  • D'Vorah is the only character in the Mortal Kombat X story mode that can perform a Fatality during a Quick-Time Event.
  • Because of her murders of several beloved characters, including Scorpion and Mileena as well as her grotesque appearance, D'Vorah is possibly the most hated newly-introduced kombantant. However, while many players hate her role in the story, many still play as her. Also because of the backlash, when several Youtubers started killing D'Vorah while performing finishers because her blue blood was the only way to get past YouTube's censorship, fans started making memes about killing her.
