Half-Tarkatan genetic experiment, daughter of Shao Kahn and Princess of Outworld.
A genetic experiment created by the sorcerer Shang Tsung, she is one of the adopted daughters of the Outworld Emperor Shao Kahn and one of his personal enforcers.
Mileena is a mutant hybrid clone of Kitana, created in Shang Tsung's flesh pits at the behest of Shao Kahn, who had become increasingly paranoid that Kitana would one day learn the truth and betray him. As a fusion of Tarkatan blood and Edenian physiology, Mileena combines and fully utilizes attributes of both races in combat, boasting incredible speed, brute strength, nimble acrobatic prowess, and frightening, carnivorous savagery matched only by Baraka. She is shown to be extremely flirtatious as well, utilizing her "beauty" to manipulate men to her advantage, although all of the characters she has tried this on, particularly Reiko, found her repulsive. Deep down, her main driving force is her need for approval, for attention, and for relationship. Her flirtatiousness and glamor hides a deep insecurity of being seen a monster, and her mouth. In terms of physical features, she is identical to Kitana, apart from cutting her hair shorter and her face being twisted by the Tarkatan DNA flowing in her veins, giving her a large mouth rimmed with long, sharp teeth and large, orange, feline-like eyes much like Baraka.
There were many places in Outworld that could make someone feel small. The bottomless Sea of Blood, the vast and expansive Wastelands. But few did so with such ease as the Fortress Palace of Shao Kahn, ruler of Outworld. The labyrinthine structure was colossal in its size and grandeur, brutal edges and harsh corners offset by a kind of mystical, elegant mystique. The magnitude of the complex housed many guests and permanent residents, from retainers, guards, soldiers, professionals who maintain the premises... it can feel vast and suffocating.
It is in this very suffocating environment that Mileena, Princess of Outworld, finds herself in. To make matters worse, she is already not in very good spirits. Merely an hour ago, there was an explosive argument in the throne room between her sister Kitana and herself, and it wasn't pretty. The only thing stopping her from finally getting the best of her sister was their father's order to depart at once. Ever since, she has been meandering through the halls and corridors, sulking to herself. Part of her feels like tearing something apart, and part of her just wants to lay down and feel dejected. Although, part of he feels a little better knowing that, even though she wasn't able to be the only child today, she is still the favorite. That makes her do a little skip.
