Smoke is the younger Sub-Zero's best friend and fellow Lin Kuei member. After the Elder Sub-Zero failed his mission to assassinate Shang Tsung, Smoke accompanied the younger Sub-Zero to complete the task. When the two warriors returned to warn their clan of Shao Kahn's invasion, they discovered that the clan had started automating it's members. The two fled, but Smoke, lagging behind, attempted to slow their pursuers so that Sub-Zero could escape. He was turned into a cyborg and sent to kill the "traitorous" Sub-Zero. Smoke caught up to Sub-Zero whom was able to release Smoke from his programming and they discovered that not only Smoke still retained his soul, but he was one of Raiden's chosen warriors. He'd however be captured during battle and brought back, inoperative, as a trophy for Shao Kahn. After Shao Kahn's apparent death, Noob Saibot found him and reactivated him, but first reprogrammed him to be his servant.
