Li Mei

Li Mei's home village of was forced into slavery by troops led by Kano to help construct Shang Tsung's palace around the Soulnado, which had been a long-time legend of her people. In attacking Kano, however, she gained the attention of Quan Chi, who promised her freedom if she could win a tournament. Around this time she befriended an old warrior among her enslaved villagers: the supposed "Champion of the Elder Gods" Shujinko, captured by Kano during his 40-year quest for the Kamidogu. Shujinko offered to train her even though he felt that her chances in the Deadly Alliances "tournament" were slim.
