Personality:

• Under Shao Kahn's influence, Kitana was stubborn, naive, and filled with anger. But after breaking free from him, she becomes more noble, kind, and caring. She openly turns against Shao Kahn and becomes a loyal friend and ally to Earthrealm, especially Raiden and his team of warriors. Although she is kind, Kitana is also haughty do to her royal status as a princess. She is polite, bold, confident, proud, brave, and strong. Kitana is extremely loyal to her friends and despite her good traits Kitana has flaws.
• Kitana shows a strong dislike to her enemies mostly her sister and rival Mileena. Even though Kitana wants to stop those who wish to harm earth and Edenia she still tries to reason with them. This is seen when Kitana tries to free her mother from Shao Kahn's control. Kitana showing kindness to her enemies is also seen when she makes peace with Goro and the Shokan. Those she can't reason with Kitana doesn't forgive them like Shao Kahn or other similar bad guys. Though Kitana is loyal, honorable, and selfless, Kitana does seek vengeance and justice against Shao Kahn and his minions.
• Kitana's main goal is to get revenge on Shao Kahn and his forces for enslaving her homeworld. Kitana wants justice for what he has done. She wishes to bring peace, preserve, order and justice to all the realms. Her goals are to restore all the realms back to their greatness that they once had with Edenia being in charge. Another one of Kitana's main goals is to have an all female fighting group as the protectors of all the realms. While she wishes for Edenia to be the center of peace for all the realms Kitana wants her female fighting group to be greatest force of the Edenian army, enforcers, guards and soldiers.

Fighting Style:

• Kitana relies mostly on her Steel Fans in battle, although she is more than adequate in unarmed hand-to-hand combat. She can use her fans as both a projectile and a melee weapon, as well as the ability to create large and small Tornadoes with her Edenian/Wind magic, (She expresses her magic with her War Fans), Kitana also has the ability to Teleport short/long distances and somewhat has flight to an extent. She can also throw her fans while airborne and execute a mid-air punch to counter other airborne foes.
• Kitana's also very agile; able to do very quick kicks and fast fist attacks. As for strength Kitana exceptionally has it, using strong throws and hitting vital's such as chest, throat, and knees making her a deadly warrior. Her strikes are strong enough to deliver powerful blows on her opponents such as uppercuts strong enough to send a person flying or frontal hand-palm attacks to fracture bones or create extremely fatal injuries to her opponents with just that alone. She's also capable of lifting a fully grown man with just one hand, as shown when she lifted Shang Tsung showing her strength.

Background:

• Kitana was the daughter of Jerrod and Sindel, Jerrod was the king while Sindel was the queen of Edenia. Edenia was a peaceful place in a way reminiscent to Earthrealm.
• When Kitana was a child Shao Kahn invaded Edenia he ended up killing Jerrod and Sindel becomes Kahn's new wife which made Kitana think that Kahn was her real father by blood but he was not, as Kitana became older she became a well skilled Assassin for Shao Kahn and ranked princess under him. After a while Kahn feared that Kitana would soon learn the truth about her past, he constructed a monstrous clone of Kitana made with half her blood mixed with the Strength of Tarkatan blood Mileena was created.
• She appeared in secret occasionally to assist the Earthrealmers after witnessing Liu Kang fight. Her true feelings and alignment were a mystery, but were revealed to the Earthrealm warriors during the tournament. She was not really the daughter of Shao Kahn, but in fact his stepdaughter; she was adopted by Kahn to strengthen his claims to the Edenian throne after he killed its king, Jerrod, and married Jerrod's wife, Queen Sindel, who were Kitana's parents. 9,000 years later, Kahn instructed newly-corrupted Earthrealm Mortal Kombat tournament fighter Shang Tsung to create a twin for Kitana that would not grow up to resent him for his evils; the monstrous Mileena, who was actually a grotesque and evil clone of Kitana.
• Kitana grew up dutifully loyal to Shao Kahn, whom she believed was her real father. She was raised to be one of Shao Kahn's personal assassins, alongside her good friend Jade and her "sister" Mileena. Upon learning the truth about her past, she continued to feign loyalty to Kahn whilst planning and waiting for the right time to turn against him openly, despite her fear that he is unstoppable. Inherited from her mother, it is Kitana’s warmth and kindness that gives her the strength to plot against Shao Kahn
• Kitana's chance finally came, when Shao Kahn and Shang Tsung lured Earth's heroes into Outworld. Kitana entered the tournament, but secretly began to contact one of Earth's heroes (most likely Liu Kang) trying to help them defeat Kahn. However, Kitana's efforts were discovered by her clone Mileena. Mileena attacked her traitorous "sister," forcing Kitana to defend herself. She defeated and killed Mileena, and in so doing revealed that she was no longer loyal to Shao Kahn.
• The Earthrealm warriors escaped from Outworld, but Kitana was imprisoned and sentenced to death for killing Mileena. However, after Sindel's resurrection and Shao Kahn's subsequent invasion of Earthrealm, she managed to escape and rejoin her friends from Earth. Her only purpose was to save the resurrected Sindel and remove the evil taint in her soul. Kitana also had to contend with her friend Jade, who was sent by Kahn to capture her. Kitana managed to convince her to turn against Kahn and join the forces of good. Jade then helped the Princess defeat Reptile, another assassin sent by Kahn to capture Kitana. Eventually, Kitana reached through to her mother and freed her from Kahn's grasp after subduing her bodyguard, Sheeva. Shao Kahn's reign over Earthrealm was short-lived, as he and his elite forces were ultimately defeated. In the wake of these events, Kitana and Sindel freed Edenia as well. Before leaving Earthrealm, Kitana thanked Liu Kang for all he had done.
