Overview
Originally, the Red Dragon was a secret order from which the Black Dragon split. Unlike their lawless and reckless counterparts, Red Dragons are disciplined, honorable, and unwaveringly dedicated to their cause. They fight not for chaos and anarchy, but for world order under the strict rule of the dragon king Onaga. Their purpose remains hidden from the outside world, fiercely guarded by a vow of secrecy and time-tested loyalty.
Famous members like Daegon and Mavado are the faces of their ruthless power. Deegon, the founder, is an immortal imbued with the power of prophecy, his visions guiding the actions of the Red Dragon. Mavado punishes the Red Dragon's enemies with his merciless fighting style and deadly hook blades.
The story of the Red Dragon is about blood and fire, old debts and dangerous ambitions. They are a force of calculated power, planning out of the public eye. They stand on the board as menacing players, ready for a war that can destroy all the empires of the Mortal Kombat universe.
History
The leader of the Red Dragon, Daegon, a demigod and son of Argo, protector of Eden, became a pivotal figure in defining the mission of the Red Dragon. Driven by visions of power and control, Daegon turned the organization into a personal army, using them relentlessly to pursue the ultimate power, the legendary power of Blaze; this one came with the promise that he would give unparalleled power and omnipotence. The group attracted many powerful warriors such as Hsu Hao, whose heart had been replaced with a cybernetic implant, and Mavado, with unique grappling hooks and the power to manipulate gravity, giving him a lethal aerial advantage. These individuals were not just members; they were fanatical, devoted to the leader and the cause.
Daegon's intention was for the Red Dragon to remain an enigma, their existence and operations shrouded in mystery. Their mysterious markings, the snake-like red dragon emblem, are the only overt expression of the group and the only hint of their activities. Many factions have tried to destroy the Red Dragon, but it continues to survive, maintaining its mysterious existence and fulfilling its declared destiny to maintain balance in the realms by any means necessary. But in a universe where alliances are as volatile as they are deadly, the Red Dragon's future is as unpredictable as its past. Only time will tell what will survive of this ancient and mysterious organization. One thing is for sure, their fiery emblem will continue to inspire fear and the Red Dragon will continue to soar no matter what obstacles stand in the way.
