Talk:Ambrosia

Ambrosia's backstory?
What is exactly known about Ambrosia (aside of RPG storyline where it is the materialization of bad qualities of humanity, like anger, hatred, fear) ? Im not sure about its sex, because "ankoku shin" was translated by SNK as "dark goddess" alot of times, even though original doesnt mentions sex. Other things are, in article about Palenke and Tangil stones, it is mentioned that Ambrosia was cast to Makai, meaning some time back it wasnt in Makai, and probably was just a "god" and not "dark god", and also it means it was cast to Makai by some other deities I assume. And the story with creation of magic gem, then being cast in hell with gem left in human world, guarded, makes Ambrosia very and very similar to Shinnok:

The part in this article which mentions Shinnok-Lucifier relationship, with Shinnok defeating Lucifier and establishing own rule over hell, also is pretty similar of Yuga and Asura relationship, but only in Mortal Kombat universe Lucifier never broke free after his essence was sealed
 * He doesn't have a backstory really. He's the big bad who came from the demon world. Technically, Ambrosia has no sex mentioned but it's portrayed as a man so often that I just stuck with it as being masculine. It was always a dark god in the media I've read. Different media implies that he got sealed at one point and the stones were taken away from him but it's not really stated. He just wants to get stronger since he's a considered a minor god without his stones. The Mortal Kombat stuff is interesting and all but I don't really see your point in mentioning it in this conversation. Sake neko 17:35, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
