"First game:Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero (1997)
In the games, Quan Chi is a sorcerer and necromancer from the eternally-damned Netherealm.
He is a malevolent opportunist who will ally himself with anyone who can help him further his own goals, and his conniving nature has earned him several enemies, including Mortal Kombat mainstays Sub-Zero and the ninja specter Scorpion.
As part of the eponymous pair in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, he forms a tenuous partnership with fellow sorcerer Shang Tsung in attempt to conquer both Earthrealm and the otherworldly dimension of Outworld, and plays a notable role in the 2011 Mortal Kombat reboot game as he is written into the continuity of the series' first three titles, and returned in the 2015 release Mortal Kombat X. He has additionally featured in other franchise media such as the television program Mortal Kombat: Konquest and the Mortal Kombat: Legacy web series. General and media reception to the character has been mostly positive, but split in regards to his Fatality finishing moves."
