I must admit, I was pretty bored while writing this, and the answer could be just "to make a difference".
No. I want to hear your opinion on the subject.

Why is Ermac black?

Yeah... He got a tan cause he was there only for a brief moment, but Scorpion stayed there for a while so he lost his skin.
Not a bad one. I'm waiting for more.

Yeah....I haven't played much MK so I can't really remember stuff. Oh well, maybe ermac got an error macro in his code and that messed up his skin colour.

Heh, I actually don't know much about the MK story, only the stuff from the movie, and the first two games. Smile

Heh, I only know stuff from Wikipedia. That and I only know small tidbits from Deception and Armageddon's konquest modes.

He was originally black, but one day came across a bigger blacker man named Major Jackson Briggs. Jax wasn't happy that he was no longer the only black guy in MK, so he beat Ermac till he turned white.
The End:blabla:

I kouldn't kome up with a better explanation than DeathRider.
Face it man his explanation is "thee" explanation lmao BlaBla

Or it could be because he is made of kountless souls his skin can change. Hes bound to have multi-racial souls in there somewhere.

Hmmm thats actually a good explanation......go me! Headbang

All the best,
Razer Scorpion

So Jax pretty much beat the black off of Ermac. Reminds me of Greg Morton's Just for Laughs thing on lawn darts.

So, what about Cyrax, Jade, and... erm... Kai? Why was Ermac singled out by Jax. Such bullying, tisk tisk.

Good call, man. I think that is actually a really fitting explanation. If Ed Boon reads this he'll probably say "I'm using that shit!" Lol
If that was the case though, would that give Ermac the ability to morph from one shape and persona to another? Or would that just be opening a can of worms?

Thanx man ^-^

I think the personality change would be kinda kool in a way.
But not too sure on the shape shifting thing. We already have too many of that shit lol

So the skin change and slight personality disorder would be an excellent improvement on Ermac's Kharacter. It would make him one of thee most original Kharacters in the franchise! And we need that.

All the best,
Razer Scorpion

This thread has just given me an idea for a special move for Ermac.

How about he dispels one of the souls which takes on a physical form (like what happened in the movie where Noob Saibot came out of Ermac's chest). The new form does an attack on the opponent before being re-absorbed by Ermac.

I know it share some resemblance to Noob Saibot's clone move in Trilogy, but I always liked that move and wanted to see it return.

They could even make a fatality out of it.

Noob Saibot coming out of Ermac was the dumbest thing I've seen happen to any Mortal Kombat character, ever... except for Motaro losing his manhood.

To answer the question, Ermac had dark skin to create the token black ninja.

That actually sounds like a great move, man. And the Fatality capabilities from something like that could be savage.

I don't, however, remember ever seeing Noob coming out of Ermacs chest. When, where, and what the fuck was this?
