The Netherrealm (Mortal Kombat: Charade).
The Netherrealm is a realm in the Mortal Kombat series. The Netherrealm is comparable to the Underworld, besides known as Hell, in religions and mythologies. It seems to resemble an eternally aflame "continent", containing many volcanic fields and lava pits. The area is also spelled Netherealm, every bit confirmed in the bios and endings for Mortal Kombat Gold and Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance.

About The Netherrealm
Shujinko: "This place... information technology feels dark."
Damashi: "As dark equally every heart that inhabits it. Normally our presence here would non be possible. Merely evil resides in this realm."(Charade)
Netherrealm appears to be like Outworld, a realm composed of thousands of unlike layers. In the Mortal Kombat universe, deceased souls or entities who have committed major crimes descend into the Netherrealm to undergo endless torture. In the older timeline, it was as if one could non enter the Netherrealm without being evil or having a tainted soul. Additionally, magic users and magical beings are slowly weakened while in this realm. Information technology is an alternative, more generic name for the Abrahamic concept of Hell, as one of its erstwhile rulers was Match (whose name appears only in the Sub-Zippo game manual merely non in-game). Information technology is also described every bit "the darkest region of reality", and is inhabited by demons, monsters, and beings of the purest evil.
Though exits from and entrances to the Netherrealm are very limited for obvious reasons, the world had quite a tumultuous history. Millions of years ago, the fallen Elder God Shinnok was banished in that location. After ages of imprisonment, he was able to break costless, deposing Lucifer in the process. He restructured the realm to carry some resemblance to Earthrealm, the globe which he had long desired to make his own. He later used it as a staging ground for the invasion of Edenia, merely found himself cast into the depths of the realm once again after this invasion was foiled. The abandoned war machines of Shinnok were then put to practiced use by i of his erstwhile acolytes, Noob Saibot.
Two locations inside this realm include the Bridge of Immortality and the Prison of Souls. These are almost similar the Di Yu in Chinese Mythology. The Prison of Souls is the Chamber of Grinding and so is the Slaughterhouse. Shinnok's Spire resembles that of Yan Wang's spire in 'Journey to the Westward.'
In Mortal Kombat: Deception's Konquest mode, Shujinko arrives during the "Festival of Torture", in which dead bodies burn and inhabitants watch them.
Native realm species
The Oni, Native to the Netherrealm (Bronze character in Mortal Kombat X Mobile)
In a generic sense, many demons and spectres are native to the Netherrealm in that human beings can be transformed into them when their essences descend into hell, but it is unclear if Netherrealm hosts any original life. It should also be noted that the inhabitants of this realm look more human being than they are, because the realm's magical nature conceals their demonic nature. Once they get out the Netherrealm, they may commencement to decompose and rot. Like Chaosrealm inhabitants, some Netherrealmers tend to speak backwards.
A specific subset of demons, the Oni, is thought to be native to the Netherrealm. They vary a lot in terms of advent, stature and color, as is evidenced by Drahmin and Moloch, and appear to be unable to communicate with other lifeforms. (Although in Armageddon's Konquest manner Drahmin does land "Welcome to Hell." to Taven.) Their prime country of existence appears to exist ane of unquenchable rage.
Dismembered humans are as well seen here, presumably from the Chamber of Dismembering.
Notable residents
Not-native
- Drahmin was in one case a warlord who was presumably assassinated, and transformed into a caricature of his former cocky past unknown powers, until he became an Oni. He may take been at the seventeenth level of Hell, seeing that he's somewhat eaten by maggots or he might accept been skinned in Hell as well.
- Noob Saibot is the altered form of the elder Sub-Zero, after he was murdered by Scorpion in retribution for his own killing. The mass corruption in his soul acquired him to transform into a humanoid Wraith based on his reincarnation in the next life equally he is not in a very low level.
- Reiko was originally introduced as a member of the Brotherhood of Shadow, presumably a demon every bit well. However, his exact origin is revealed as Outworld in his trading card video.
- Scorpion became a vengeful specter in the Netherrealm later he was killed by the elder Sub-Nada (Bi-Han, before becoming Noob Saibot). Unlike nigh creatures in the Netherrealm, Scorpion is neither evil nor good and tin can somewhat withstand the torturous realm better than others stating that he is not at a very low level in Hell. In fact, it has been stated that his powers increase there equally of Deadly Brotherhood. His type of reincarnation is based on the Chinese conventionalities that a dead person with unfinished business comes back to settle scores with opponents and can't be hands put to balance.
- Shinnok was once an Elder God, descended into Netherrealm because he wanted to take over Earthrealm without relinquishing his status as Elder God. Nonetheless, he did overthrow Friction match with Quan Chi's aid and became supreme ruler of the dark realm as stated in the MK Mythologies manual but then, his side-story in Armageddon may retcon it otherwise. He is loosely based on the Chinese god of Hell Yan Wang and the Christian Satan, being deceptive and evil.
- Smoke was brought to the Netherrealm by Noob Saibot. It is suspected he has also become tainted with evil after his new master contradistinct his nanotechnology.
- The revenants Liu Kang, Kitana, Kung Lao, Kabal, Kurtis Stryker, Nightwolf, Smoke and Jade.
Native or unknown
- Quan Chi's origin is non known other than the fact that he used to be an Oni, only one of the Netherrealm'south demons claims that Quan Chi is a demon from the Netherrealm and was a member of the Brotherhood of Shadows.
- Ashrah'southward origins are unknown. Once an assassinator in service of Quan Chi, she constitute a sword (Datusha) that slowly guided her to the calorie-free side.
- Moloch is also an Oni, but different Drahmin, he is more ape-similar than humanoid.
- The Netherrealm is also home to the Brotherhood of Shadow, led by Noob Saibot and Quan Chi.
- Sareena is a demon of the realm, although piddling is known nigh her past. She was once a personal assassin of Quan Chi and served the Brotherhood of Shadow, merely turned confronting the association.
- Kia and Jataaka were also demon assassins who served Quan Chi aslope Sareena. While they remained loyal to Quan Chi, Sareena did non.
- Kharon is an immortal tasked with taking damned souls to the Netherrealm via his gunkhole.
Non-Catechism
- Darkseid was sentenced to an eternity in the Netherrealm locked in chains after he was judged by the Elderberry Gods at the end of Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. In Darkseid'south ending, Shang Tsung, who desired the warlord's extraordinary ability as his ain, attempted to absorb Darkseid's soul. Unfortunately for the wizard, Darkseid was able to reverse his spell instead allowing him to steal Shang Tsung's power and interruption free of his bindings.

Trivia
- The base expanse of the realm contains a city congenital by sorcerers, chosen Nekros, as a source of protection confronting the environment which drains life energies from the living.
- Within the Netherrealm are Soul Stones, artifacts which can temporarily requite energy to travelers to survive in the hostile environment.
- Shao Kahn is said to have many allies in the Netherrealm, though no names are mentioned as to who exactly. Ironically, Kahn invaded this realm in Mortal Kombat three.
- The Netherrealm is one of the only two realms that is infinite in size.
- References are fabricated in both Scorpion and Quan Chi's bios to the "fifth plane" of the Netherrealm, where Scorpion was always reincarnated until condign the Champion of the Elder Gods. This strengthens the parallels between the Netherrealm and the Abrahamic Hell, as Dante Alighieri'southward Inferno names the fifth circle as the abode of the Wrathful.
- It is oft said that only those with an evil taint tin can access the Netherrealm. However, some individuals were capable of accessing the realm:
- Taven, in the Armageddon Konquest style, is able to freely admission the realm. It may exist that Taven'due south half-god status allows him to enter the Netherrealm despite lacking the required evil taint.
- Sareena and Sub-Zero, in her Armageddon bio, both of them were able to access the realm. Although Sareena's entrance can be explained by existence of the Netherrealm, an explanation for Sub-Cypher is not given.
- The Elder Sub-Aught, in Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero, was able to enter, however Raiden stated that he already had an evil taint in his heart, merely merely he can change information technology.
- Shujinko, in the Deception Konquest manner, was able to enter in the Netherrealm by tainting his centre through working with the Lin Kuei, although information technology might take been because he was working for Onaga.
- Nightwolf, in his Deception bio, is stated to have corrupted his soul with the Sin-Eater ritual, which would therefore allow him to enter the Netherrealm. Subsequently imprisoning Onaga in that realm, he was released from his corruption and returned to Earthrealm.
- Captain Curiosity in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe was drawn into the Netherrealm by Scorpion's spear. Strangely, he wasn't released from the Netherrealm, perhaps because the RAGE tainted his heart; even if in that location was an explanation, the point would be moot equally the events of the game are non-canon.
- It is seen that some demons dislike the harsh environment of the Netherrealm, as both Ashrah and Sareena desired to escape. Fifty-fifty Moloch and Drahmin (given their cruel nature and that they seem well-adjusted to its nature) desired to escape besides (though it was only considering Quan Chi'due south offer instead of their conscious decision).
- It has been stated several times throughout the series that only people who have evil in their souls are capable of properly entering the Netherrealm. By that logic, every being in the universe should be able to enter.
- The Netherrealm makes a cameo appearance in Injustice: Gods Among Us, appearing during Scorpion's Super Move and in his Victory Pose animation.
- The Netherrealm is likewise mentioned in Injustice 2 during in-game dialogues from Raiden's advent in the game.
Relationships with other Realms
As one could expect, the Netherrealm could be said to pose the biggest threat to the Heavens, being its polar reverse. Most inhabitants of other realms fear the Netherrealm and avoid contact with information technology if at all possible. Under Shao Kahn'south rule in Outworld, still, alliances have been formed between certain of its denizens and those of the Netherrealm (an example being the interaction between Shang Tsung and Quan Chi). Aside from that, information technology has no other known allies and seems to be viewed every bit a threat by the citizens of every other realm, beingness the place of eternal damnation.
