Noob Saibot (Bi-han)

Backstory Bi-Han and his brother Kuai Liang are the sons of the previous Lin Kuei Grandmaster. Both were gifted with supernatural abilities - Bi-Han becoming a Cryomancer called Sub-Zero, and Kuai Liang a pyromancer called Scorpion. They would soon gain a sworn adopted brother in Tomas Vrbada (later to be codenamed Smoke), who had been orphaned due his family accidentally trespassing onto Lin Kuei grounds. Together, the three would participate in the defense of Earthrealm as their clan had done for many centuries. However, Bi-Han's ambition to be greater than what they were would begin to consume him, so much so that when their father died, Bi-Han reveals he did nothing to help him, a fact he deliberately hid from the softer Kuai Liang.

With their father's death, Bi-Han took his place as Grandmaster, which Kuai Liang took pride in. Yet, with Earthrealm continuing to thrive in peace, Bi-Han grew restless, yearning to truly be a leader and bring glory to the Lin Kuei. To Bi-Han, working with Earthrealm's protector Liu Kang felt more subservient than necessary. His ambitious attitude and desire for greatness began to clash with Kuai Liang and Tomas, who were determined to uphold Lin Kuei tradition.

Mortal Kombat 1:

Sub-Zero is first introduced in the story along with his fellow ninjas when they test Raiden and Kung Lao at Madame Bo's teahouse under Liu Kang's orders. Standing on the roof of the building, he launches a powerful chunk of ice at the farmers, which they narrowly evade in time. While Scorpion fights Kung Lao, Sub-Zero tackles Raiden and quickly begins outmatching him in Kombat. Raiden retreats to the top floor by climbing a pillar, and Sub-Zero pursues by kicking a table into the shape of a ramp and using it as a springboard to follow. He continues to outmatch Raiden, using his power over ice to lock Raiden's arms to a table, but before he can continue attacking, Kung Lao whacks him in the head by throwing his straw hat, irritating the Cryomancer. He is then forced to actually dodge the subsequent chakram Kung Lao launches at him, grazing his arm. Declaring that Kung Lao stands no chance against a Grandmaster, Sub-Zero turns his full attention to Kung Lao and battles him, but loses. The test is concluded when Liu Kang arrives to congratulate Raiden and Kung Lao, introducing them to the Lin Kuei as well as the concepts of Earthrealm and Outworld and telling them they must prepare for training. Kung Lao exclaims that they had already beaten the ninja, but Madame Bo reveals that they had been pulling their punches and Sub-Zero scoffs, claiming the farmers would not have survived had they not used their full strength.

Sub-Zero is next seen alongside Scorpion, accompanying Liu Kang to Johnny Cage's mansion in order to help recruit both Johnny and Kenshi, the latter having failed to best Johnny and reclaim Sento. Sub-Zero moves to untie him under Liu Kang's orders, but quickly turns aggressive when Johnny attempts to stop him and sends him flying into his "one-of-a-kind Hichuli", which shatters on top of him. When Scorpion asks his brother if the blow was necessary, Sub-Zero retorts that Johnny had to be put in his place. Angered by their nonsense, Johnny recovers and makes short work of both brothers, but Liu Kang intervenes before more kombat can occur (inadvertently setting off Johnny's fire alarm) and begins to explain everything to both Johnny and Kenshi.

Before training to see who will represent Earthrealm's champion in the upcoming tournament against Outworld, Kung Lao mentions that he will have to thank Sub-Zero for inspiring his newly-crafted chakram-like hat.

Sub-Zero and his brothers are later seen in a room waiting for Liu Kang to finish deciphering the mystery of Shang Tsung and Quan Chi's benefactor with Geras. Growing impatient, Sub-Zero has a short argument with Kuai Liang and Tomas about the merits of their late father's principles. While Sub-Zero is fine allowing his father's teachings to guide them, he does not plan to be shackled by them. Tomas tells him that they can't just abandon tradition, prompting Sub-Zero to snap at him in return, reminding him that he is not truly their brother and for him to mind his place, coldly informing him that he won't be Lin Kuei by blood unlike him and his brother. The tension is dispelled by Raiden and Kung Lao's arrival, who inform the ninja that Liu Kang is available, much to Sub-Zero's annoyed relief. Liu Kang instructs the Lin Kuei to strike Shang Tsung's hideout at the ruins of Ying Fortress by capturing the sorcerer and destroying his soul stealers.

The three ninjas arrive at the fortress, surveying it from a nearby cliff. Smoke observes that their only way in is going over the fortress walls, so they decide to find a less-guarded section to ascend. Sub-Zero is excited at the prospect of proving the power of his clan to worthy opponents in kombat, though Scorpion and Smoke are decidedly less so, reminding their brother that they fight for duty, as their father instructed. Sub-Zero rebukes them, retorting that he will not settle for simply defending Earthrealm, and that he plans to lead the Lin Kuei towards a different, more glorious future.

The trio make their way up the fortress walls, Sub-Zero using his ice daggers to climb, but Nitara swoops in and nearly knocks Smoke all the way back down to the bottom. Nitara then tackles Sub-Zero, but the ninja recovers and swiftly defeats her, remarking that she will remain hungry after failing to drain him of his blood. Next on his list is the approaching Ermac, who nearly tears Sub-Zero's arms off, but he breaks free and blasts him out of the air with an ice blast. Eager to test himself against Ermac's dark magic, Sub-Zero battles and defeats him as well. After making sure that both Scorpion and Smoke are unharmed, he leads them further into the fortress, spotting Quan Chi heading inside. While Smoke stays back to keep watch on the soul stealers, Sub-Zero and Scorpion pursue the sorcerer.

Entering the fortress, the two ninjas are able to catch up to Quan Chi and Shang Tsung, overpowering them, but they are then subdued by a swarm of guards led by General Shao. When they come to, Shang Tsung presents them with a simple offer - betray Liu Kang and gain unrivalled power. Though Scorpion is not easily deceived, Sub-Zero becomes intrigued by the idea of breaking free from Liu Kang's leash. Shang Tsung leads the captured ninja through the fortress, revealing his access to Emperor Ying's Dragon Army and demonstrating their effectiveness. The notion of such a powerful force causes Bi-Han's loyalty to waver, and he motions for Shang Tsung to remove his cuffs as a sign of acceptance, much to Kuai Liang's dismay as he reprimands Bi-Han, wondering what their father would ever think of such a betrayal. Bi-Han then reveals that he allowed their father to die because of his hatred for their principles that he believed held back their potential, and that he had been keeping the knowledge from his brother, knowing he couldn't bear to handle the cold truth. Bi-Han is proven correct - driven by newfound rage, Kuai Liang shakes off his captors and brutally demolishes the gathered villains in a battle with his chains alone. As his brother flees the chamber, Bi-Han manages to rise from the floor, warning the others to not let Kuai Liang escape.

Bi-Han manages to track down Kuai Liang and Tomas outside the fortress, furious that they would betray their Grandmaster, though he is rebuked by them both for going against Lin Kuei principles and letting their father die. Bi-Han fights Kuai Liang one-on-one, managing to scar him across his right eye, but extends a hand to him, hoping to recruit his little brother to their new cause, but Kuai retorts that he wants no part of Bi-Han's corruption and defeats him in kombat. Knowing that Cyrax and Sektor are fully loyal to Bi-Han and would never accept Kuai as the new Grandmaster, Kuai suggests to Smoke that they chart a new course for themselves - one that both honors their father and serves Earthrealm. Carrying the unconscious Bi-Han, they escape the fortress, watching as the soul stealers ignite.

Bi-Han is not seen again during the rest of the story, but it is mentioned that he refused to let the Lin Kuei aid the Forces of Light against Titan Shang Tsung's invasion. Afterwards, Bi-Han began plans with Sektor to create an army for the Lin Kuei inspired by the Dragon Army, made with technology rather than magic. Bi-Han vowed that the rest of Earthrealm would heed their demands, but the Lin Kuei would face opposition from the Shirai Ryu, the clan formed by his brothers to counter them.
