Biography
GREATEST SORCERER OF NETHERREALM

Quan Chi is a powerful sorcerer and necromancer in the Netherrealm. He uses both his cunningness and brute force in any attempts to conquer Earthrealm. Quan Chi was known as a magician that can pass through realms without the detection of Elder Gods, spending time amassing many deadly magics. In one point he freed Shinnok, the fallen Elder God. After freeing Shinnok, Quan Chi is imbued by Shinnok a great power, making him  the arch-mage of Netherrealm. Many fighters encountered him, but probably none prevailed. At one point, Quan is defeated. But always, he will bring any attempt to actually win and rule Earthrealm.

Opening
Quan Chi was sitting in the throne of Netherrealm. When suddenly a demon servant came to him and says that he found something that might be useful to Quan. Quan then asks is it true and where is it. The demon says it's not in Netherrealm, but outside, in another world where countless fighters fought for the power. However, the demon said that the power itself is sentient. Quan hears this and decides to find the power himself, and Quan sets in a journey to find the power.

Rival
Name: Loki

Reason: Quan Chi was wandering around the rival stage, feeling the power is close by. Then, he sees Loki and shouts out Loki by the name "stranger". Loki then responds by saying Quan Chi is just another sorcerer that is hopeless and blinded. However, Quan Chi "counters" Loki by saying that Loki was only an outsider that is outcasted by his parents. Loki then justifies some of Quan's word, saying that it is true he is exiled by his father, Laufey the Frost Giant. After that, Quan Chi makes some more statements, which all is accidentally connected to Loki's life. At the last statement, Loki immediately responds by throwing his dagger to Quan Chi which he deflected. And then Loki forces Quan to reveal who is he because he knows so much about Loki. Quan angrily replies that it was an accident and he is guessing. Loki refuses to accept Quan's reply and blatantly smiles. Loki then says Quan Chi must go away or fight him. Quan chooses to fight Loki and the two starts battling.

Connection: Both are incredible sorcerers that manipulates magic with great skill. Both are also look human, but came from another world. Loki being Asgard and originally Jotunheim, and Quan Chi being Outworld. Other than that, both has connections with each others' other worlds. Loki being Jotunheim (Where he is born) and Quan Chi being the Netherrealm (Where he is tortured by Lucifer, but became a ruler there and there is where he originates). Also, in Quan's franchise, another famous sorcerer named Shang Tsung shares some same traits with Loki. Both can do mind controls and can shape shift. Both franchises also starts with M.

Notes: Quan Chi actually currently resides in Netherrealm. But the word Outworld in the Connection statement above is added because Netherrealm is one of Outworld's part, like Outworld's hell

Ending
Quan Chi returns to the Netherrealm after beating Polygon Man. There he meets Shang Tsung near a torture chamber at the Netherrealm. Quan questions Shang what is he doing here. Tsung then replies that he wants to congratulate Quan Chi for his success at gaining the power. Quan then replied by saying thanks, and offers Tsung to try to take his soul. Tsung attempted to do so to gain the power but failed. Quan then stabs Tsung in the head and rips his head off and says, "This is real power." and walks away with Tsung's head and throws the head to a pool of lava.
