Biography: [101] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Place of Origin: Outworld Alignment: Evil Allies: Shao Kahn Foes: Goro, Sheeva, and Kintaro Species: Centaurian Motaro is from the race of Centaurians, he and his race hate the "inferior" race of the Shokan's and the two races are constantly fighting each other to prove to Shao Kahn who is the strongest. Game Appearances: Mortal Kombat 3, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, Mortal Kombat Trilogy, Mortal Kombat Advance and Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Alternate Outfit: Find in Konquest or purchase in the Krypt. Unlocked: From Start ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ii. History [102] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mortal Kombat 3 *From Wikipedia* In the realm of Outworld, Motaro's race of Centaurians had come into conflict with the Shokan. Shao Kahn, Emperor of Outworld, had begun to favor the Centaurians over the Shokan, and had been punishing the latter, aiding the Centaurians in their defeat and subjugation. When Kahn formed special extermination squads to eliminate the chosen warriors of Earthrealm during his invasion, Motaro was appointed to head this elite group of savage warriors. Sonya Blade's defeat of Kano during the events of Mortal Kombat Trilogy had resulted in the Black Dragon member being thrown from a skyscraper to the streets below. Motaro recovered the severely injured Kano, and brought him back to Shao Kahn's fortress. After reviving him with magic, Motaro then imprisoned the criminal so that he could later be punished by Kahn for failing to defeat Sonya. It is at this point that Motaro was assaulted and killed by Sheeva. Mortal Kombat Armageddon Ending Motaro defeats Blaze and his essence consumes Motaro. When the fire stops, Motaro finds himself having 4 legs again, lifting the curse on Centaurs that made them Minotaurs. He vowed the Shokan would pay for their treachery. Mortal Kombat Annihilation There is a small rivalry with Sheeva in the movie and Motaro is eventually defeated by Jax at the end. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ iii. Notes [103] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ +VERY Powerful, has a strong special -Slow, and can be at a disadvantage against a shorter fighter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ iv. Strategies [104] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Since he doesn't have many moves, I'd strongly recommend using his Power Charge a lot and every once in awhile switch to doing his "Horse is Down" and "Horse Palm" combos. /-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\ 2. Movelist [200] \-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=/ Moves will we listed with the combo needed to enter and then the name. Buttons separated by commas are inserted after completing the first one and "+" mean at the same time. The Playstation 2 and the Xbox are the two systems that have this game so I have to use a different key that encorporates both systems. There is a simple key below, and you can expect Wii controls as it releases. Yes, there is only one style for Motaro. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ i.

Specials [221] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fierce Toss............TH His throw is a generic move, it's easier to use then most fighters and should be worked into your style. Power Charge...........B,F+1 Arguably his best move, this running attack will knock the opponent down and you can even do this while they are lying on the ground! This is something you'll want to be constantyl using. Donkey Kick............D,B+4 This is one of his weaker attacks, it's just his kick that really isn't too effective. Teleport...............D,U+2 His teleport can come in handy a few times, if you need to get behind someone or quickly dodge a projectile - this is the thing to use. Mount Stance...........D,B+3 All this does is just allowing Motaro to get down on all fours and use his older moves. And the four listed below. -While in Mount Stance- Tail Projectile........1 A simple projectile, this can be helpful if you dodge something with the Mount Stance and quickly retaliate with it. Low Shoulder Charge....2 This and Propel are his other top moves that are similar to the Power Charge but just slightly weaker. Propel.................3 This and Low Shoulder Charge are his other top moves that are similar to the Power Charge but just slightly weaker. Back To Normal Stance..4 This simply returns him to his standing position. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- b. Fatalities [222] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fatalities are different this TIME, you get to input your fatality. Here's what you do!
