Taven (Earth-19999)

Taven is a character from the Mortal Fighter Series. The brother of Daegon, leader of the Black Dragon Clan, he made his debut in Mortal Fighter: Kombat and has subsequently returned for most of the games.

Early Life
Many years before the King of Iron Fist and the Mortal Fighter Tournaments, Taven and his brother Daegon were put to sleep by their father, Argus, that intended to save his sons from the invasion on Edenia by Shao Kahn and later free them so they could reclaim their homerealm once more. They were sent to Earthrealm, encased in stone to protect them from harm and assigned two guardians by the name of Orin and Caro. The quest would start once peace was established for some time.

Mortal Fighter: Kombat
Once Taven was awaken by his dragon, Orin, it told him that there was a competition between him and Daegon, but that he didn't know the details of the quest Taven was about to embark on. Reluctant to take on the quest, Taven asked where his father was, to which Orin responded that Taven should go to the Temple of Argus, a place where he would find the answers he sought. On his way to his father's temple, Taven was confronted by a man named Vega, a masked warrior alongside a woman named Juri from the Shadaloo, an Earthrealm criminal organization. Taven defeated not only Vega, but also Sasori, who was also from the Black Dragon.
