Sonya Blade
Col. Sonya Blade has several video game accolades under her belt. She was the first female fighter introduced in the Mortal Kombat series (you know, the game that spurred the creation of the ESRB). She is also one of very few fighters who has been in each entry in one form or another. To top it all off, she’s a bad-ass to the highest degree. Sonya Blade is a force to be reckoned with, unless you want your neck snapped by those extremely powerful legs of hers.
Formerly a member a the United States Special Forces, she later on became the Outer World Investigation Agency, where she and her partner Jax look out for threats from less than friendly dimensions. Her romance with Johnny Cage has often played a part in the many Mortal Kombat plots (including the movies), and their daughter Cassie Cage is even making her debut in the upcoming Mortal Kombat X. But, like the previous entries on this list, she is much more than her back story.
She is one of the best combatants in Mortal Kombat, and for good reason. She’s agile, and delivers devastating kicks. Also, her deadly kiss is one to be avoided or else you’ll be on the business end of a horrible beatdown. Just ask Kano and he’ll tell you that fighting this femme fatale is a bad idea.
