Calypso and Shao Kahn: Both are arguably the main antagonists of their franchises, and host a tournament that shares the name of their series (Twisted Metal torunament, Mortal Kombat tournament). They are also, in a sense, the strongest characters of their series, with Shao Kahn being one of the most brutal Kombatants, and Calypso having the demonic power to grant wishes, and then give them negative consequences. Both are able to resurrect the dead and are classic characters.

Raven vs Nix: The color connection is a good one. Another one is that they are both antagonists (or antagonistic characters) that are turned into good characters: Raven, originally an antagonist, becomes Kat's ally, and Nix, portrayed as the embodiment of Evil Karma, ultimately sides with the Good ending of inFamous 2. They are also provocatively dressed.

Bloody Mary vs Ivy: Both have an accent and are portayed as attractive, yet deadly, women. Both have relationships with ageless beings. Mary's lover, Marco, was a vampire, and Ivy's father, Cervantes, is hundreds of years old, able to change bodies whenever he pleases.

Asura vs Ares: Both come from games inspired by gods. Asura has many similarities to Kratos, as he also kills gods in his game. Ares could easily mistake Asura for Kratos.

Scorpio vs Ethan Mars: haven't thought of a connection, honestly
